Move along two-abs-short-of-a-six pack, the “arm vagina” is the latest body hang-up giving us grief.
Otherwise known as your armpit, the “arm vagina” is the slight fold of skin created where your arm meets your body. And according to a Hollywood stylist, it’s one of the most common anxieties female clients raise.
Rebecca Corbin-Murray, who dresses famous faces including Emma Watson, “Game of Thrones” star Sophie Turner and Lily James, says while the body positivity message is being heard, pressure on the red carpet still exists.
“Sometimes it’s the weirdest part of their body. They say: ‘I’ve got this horrible blah-blah’, and you think ‘What are they even talking about? The one that comes up all the time is the arm vagina.” she told The Times.
If you’ve spent your life avoiding strapless dresses to hide your armpit vagina, you’re in famous company. At the 2014 SAG awards actress Jennifer Lawrence joked on the red carpet: “I know I have armpit fat, it’s okay… it’s armpit vaginas.”
And yes, it is okay (thanks, JLaw). Remember: every body is a good body. Armpits and all.
