Though Yasmin Gasimova wants to be herself but her statement has endured much criticism from acquaintances and schoolmates.

An essay titled, “I Don’t Shave and I’m Not Going To Start,” along with multiple photos of unshaven legs, underarms and face has been posted by Yasmin which appeared in the ‘The Tab Liverpool’.

Describing it as ‘unfair expectations of woman’, Yasmin has stopped shaving at the age of 11. She staunchly opposes the idea that she should alter her natural appearance to suit societal norms.

“In fact, as early as 10, boys were making fun of my moustache and I was trying to shave my noticeably hairy stomach.” wrote Gasimova, now 19 and a Computer Science student at the University of Liverpool.

While many have condemned her act, but some commenters have offered support saying “Good on you for be comfortable with your hair!”

Most of her friends, family and boyfriends have eventually agreed with her personal stance.
