The uproar over Emma Corrin’s armpits is about more than just a little hair, writes Patricia Grisafi about the reaction to the star actor’s appearance on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar.
I stopped shaving my armpits three years ago. Why? I was tired of my sensitive skin being constantly annoyed by irritation and ingrown hairs. But I also wanted an aesthetic change. Something less perfect, less groomed, more wild. Humans chop and style their hair all the time. They microblade their eyebrows to look fuller and then pluck them into non-existence.
Pass,” said another user, making fun of Corrin’s armpit hair and nonbinary identity. There were also comments about Corrin needing “attention” or trying to be “edgy” with their look, as if it’s weird that someone on the cover of a fashion magazine wants to promote an aesthetic or make a statement about clothing or beauty standards. Corrin isn’t the first celebrity to be targeted by such commentary in response to visible body hair.
