What if we saw as many cute images of stomachs as we see of hearts, or even of brains?

This stomach was originally created on January 1, 2017.
Questions to ponder:
These fishnets are "nude" for whom? White supremacy should have no place in plus-size fashion. Fat people are all colors, genders, sexualities, ages, and ability levels.
