Bettie Page posing with a live cheetah (or is that a leopard?). This is one of her black and white shots, so it's harder to tell than in the color shots, but she was a sex symbol before the whole tanning craze. That is just her natural skin, no artificial UV rays needed. She eventually renounced her sex-symbol status and turned her life over to spiritual growth. She didn't express shame at her former sex-symbol status, though, insisting that nakedness is not a sin as Adam and Eve were naked in the garden of Eden. She moved to Portland, OR and preached in public parks. This was a woman who was comfortable in the skin she lived in.
Embrace your natural beauty, because it will stick with you throughout life. It's the beauty that those who love you will see for always.
