    When EggInDisguise suggests that it may be personal choice and you chime in to say that representation matters as a response, it sort of comes across like you don’t think the actor’s preferences matter over the end goal of changing the media landscape.

      This is a produced television show. Nothing the actress is wearing is her choice in the show.

      I will fight tooth and nail for anyone to choose how they present their body. I don’t care if people shave or don’t shave.

      I do care about how the media presents women and the affect it has on how society expects women to look and behave.
