#6 A user named Ingrid responded to the picture by saying: 'body goals! I wish I was confident like you :)'

She also told i100: 'For any hate I received I got the same amount of love back. And that's what made it totally worth it. I think women should just do what they want. No one should dictate what we embrace.

'If women want to embrace shaving, then shave, if they want to embrace being hairy - awesome. I'm tired of constantly seeing women being put in a position of helplessness with their bodies.

'The narrative belongs to us, and so do the choices we make within the narrative.'
