I've given a lot of thought about posting these galleries in here; aside from the fact that all the women are nude, they are also all sizes and shapes, white women, women of colour; smiling women, laughing women, women looking contemplative or sometimes even an aura of "body avoidance", fat women, skinny women, "normal" women; in other words, the range of our beauty and our bodies: we are all there.

The thing that held me back wasn't the nudity, it was the fear that some of you would go searching for the skinny women. They are there. I didn't see any emaciated women, but I wasn't really looking; I found more joy in looking at the photos of women of all sizes who were clearly enjoying the experience of their naked bodies; the women who exuded joy and infectious laughter.

And so, for that reason, because there is the full range of the human condition reflected in there, I am going to post it, and I am going to say to you, "Look. See all these women. ALL of them. Use this to create joy, don't "malign" it by using it to search out skinny women or trigger yourself."

With no further ado, I give you The Nu Project: Women of North America.

Wow. I've only looked at this for a few minutes, but wow. The radiance in some of those women's faces is beautiful. That's what I want for myself. That comfort and joy and acceptance. And I saw a woman with a very similar body shape to my own and thought "hell, that doesn't look bad at all." So, all winning so far!
