Nîmes blogger Masha Sexply launched #Cherepoitrine on Twitter. This hashtag allows women to speak freely about their relationship with their breasts. Hundreds of testimonies have emerged.
Small, large, drooping, pear-shaped or non-existent, between love and detestation, the vision you can have on your breasts is different. And many prejudices and diktats also complete the picture. Not to mention the harassment that ceratines can endure. To uncomplicate women on this subject, sex blogger Masha sexply launched a new hashtag #Cherepoitrine on Twitter. According to him, this call is "to share our testimonies with our breasts, our breasts, our torsos".
In a short time, testimonies appeared to tell how it is or it is not always easy to live daily with his chest.
"What prompted me to launch this hashtag is already the many testimonies that I receive on a daily basis. Build a healthy relationship with the breast even when the latter does not meet current beauty standards, when it is asymmetrical, very big … ", explained the Youtuber to Midi Libre.
"I grew up complexing my breasts because they were too small, underdeveloped according to the tastes of society. (…) Today I take my 85A, I no longer wear a bra and I have a nipple piercing ", tells a surfer. "#Cherepoitrine I love you now," says @em_prth
"Sorry not to love you. You belong to one of my biggest complexes … I promise to try to accept you", admits another woman.
There is not only disenchantment, some make an ode to their dear chest, like @Pau_Balleriaud: "I wanted to tell you that you are so beautiful, your volume is proportional to the heart that you protect. I did not have you always loved because you don’t only bring positive things from men, but today I can defend you from them! Thank you "
"You are very small and sometimes people make fun of you. I was told that men were going to want me less because of you. Know that now I love you very much and I do everything to highlight you", writes @ BaelishGang.
Transgender or non-binary people also wanted to participate in this great initiative.
"I would like to like you, but someone decided that when we have breasts, we are a woman. I would like to like you but when I meet someone it is you we see and not me. It's from you that we decide my genre and my role. ", tweet @NinonNeko.
Masha Sexplique did not expect the virality of the movement. "The chest is like an identity card: we are perceived immediately as a woman, bitch, frigid depending on its size, its layout, whether we wear a bra or not. It's also difficult to build your compared to your chest or chest when you are a trans person and few representations allow you to identify in mainstream culture. There is a real need to free up speech to identify with people who look like us! " , she explains to Midi Libre.
