In a bid to destroy all kind of stereotypes and promote body positivity Canadian magazine NOW Toronto has created the special Love Your Body Issue, featuring ordinary people in all their naked glory. These daredevils are ready to bare not only their bodies but their souls as well.
And the magazine helps them to tell their “stories of tragedy, growth, transformation and acceptance alongside compelling photos of brave subjects representing an array of shapes, sizes, abilities, orientations, genders and colours.”
The diverse mix of models includes black, white, and Latino men and women – some transgender, some thin, some wide, and one who uses a wheelchair.
