A woman has responded to Playboy model Dani Mathers’ Snapchat making fun of a naked stranger showering at the gym by posting a naked picture of her own.
Christine Blackmon, who goes by the name Delicate Flower on Facebook, said the photo was taken by her husband while she was changing into gym clothes, and she playfully posed for it.
“I saw the picture and begged him to delete it, I hated it, all I saw was lumps and bumps,” she wrote. “He simply smiled and softly said, ‘I think it’s beautiful.’ So I let him keep it.”
Blackmon’s response, in which she embraces her body, has been shared over 4,700 times and garnered over 40,000 likes.
“Here’s the deal- you may have been a Playboy model but not all of us work out to be ‘hot,’ some of us work out simply to honor the bodies we were given,” Blackmon wrote. “That’s all that woman was trying to do and you violated her. Shame on you. I bet I could get 100s of women to post their beautiful bodies and regardless of size, shape or color, they will ALL be more beautiful than the ugliness you showed in that post.”
“So, #DaniMathers, I’d like to introduce you to my 5’10”, 194lb lumpy, bumpy glory,” she concluded with the hashtag #UnSeeTHIS.
Mathers was severely criticized after posting a Snapchat photo of a naked woman showering in an L.A. Fitness locker room. Mathers took the photo without the woman’s knowledge, and captioned it, “If I can’t unsee this then you can’t either.”
Mathers has since apologized in a Snapchat video, saying that because she’s new to the social media app, she accidentally posted the photo to her story instead of sending to a friend. She promised that she would never do it again.
“I have chosen to do what I do for a living because I love the female body,” said the Playmate. “I know that body shaming is wrong and that’s not what I’m about.”
Mathers has since been fired from a KLOS radio gig over her post. Law enforcement is currently investigating the matter and are requesting that the woman in Mathers’ Snapchat photo come forward.
