THE (DE) SEXUALIZED BODY BY ORI LENKINSKI

"The two refuse to show us the female body we are used to seeing in films. They do not fit the cookie-cutter image of the sexy, naked temptress. They are something else, something different. They are naked women who are naked because that’s what they want, not because they are trying to impress or seduce us, because that’s what feels right to them. Women doing what they want for themselves is a very rare thing to watch and it is jarring. "
