She did not shave her armpits, and at the age of 72 she posed half naked. One of the main beauties and actresses of the last century, Sophia Loren, eclipsed everyone with her unearthly beauty and talent, but her unshaven armpits very often met a wave of indignation. A strong advocate of love and self-acceptance, the actress noted: “There's too much pressure on us to conform to certain ideas of what women should look like,” which is probably why she boldly poses with her arms raised in so many photos. Do you think it’s really possible to demonstrate self-love by not shaving your armpits or is it still a matter of hygiene?
