In her latest Instagram post, the former Sports Illustrated cover model directly reached out to her Instagram followers, writing, “When I posted about my insecurities – so many of you commented with ‘if you think it’s hard for you, then what about us common people? ‘”
“People make the assumption that external validation builds confidence,” he wrote. “But confidence comes from being validated as a person. Heard and loved. Being considered beautiful cancels out everything about you. Beauty becomes your calling card.”
“This is confirmation of just the way you look. Every imperfection, every little flaw is pointed out and discussed as if it were the most important,” she continued. “What else lies beneath the smooth coating of beauty is irrelevant.”

Less than a week ago, the beloved European model shared a new photo of herself on Instagram, covering herself in just a sheet, while sharing some more candid musings with her followers on social media.
“Is it objective or celebratory?” he started “A little weekend food for thought…”
“In a patriarchal society, women are always seen as objects of desire or care. Because this is the need of the man who runs the world,” he wrote. “This is why youth and beauty are strong currencies.”
“What happens when a woman decides to challenge herself?” he asked. “He took the power he had been given and used it for his own benefit but at the same time helped maintain the system that had always existed. For this, he will be shamed and celebrated by both perpetrators and victims.”

“Under these same rules, a man who usurps his power is celebrated. He would just be embarrassed for NOT taking that chance,” he added.
“Given these social guidelines – I wonder if the objective falls mainly on the youth,” he continued. “When I was a young model exposing my body, it was because other people approved of it. Others decided it would be celebrated.”
“I don’t know enough to understand the consequences. Therefore, objective,” he concluded. “Now, when I expose my body, [I do] it is with my full knowledge and consent. Hence, celebration.
