Keiynan Lonsdale wants everyone to know that getting naked is no big deal. In a late-night Instagram post, the Flash actor took a moment to spread the word about body positivity and the importance of feeling comfortable in your own skin.
"Dance naked, lose followers, gain leaders," he wrote. "Why is it deemed wrong to not wear clothes?"
It was obvious someone/something triggered such a post from Keiynan, but I'm not mad about it.
He continued: "We’ve been taught poorly, & groomed to hold shame for ourselves, our human bodies. No matter what we look like, each of us is made to feel incorrect inside our own physical form, told that in order to survive & be a functioning, liked, & well respected person in society, we should hide this form from the world. That shit sounds whack to me."
Yeah, that is whack!
Keiynan came out publicly last year in a very unapologetic way.
"[I’m] not apologizing for falling in love with people – no matter their gender," he said at the time. Shortly after, he appeared in queer coming-of-age film Love, Simon and released a song titled "Kiss the Boy."
With his unwavering support of LGBTQ+ people, body positivity, and overall message of equality and acceptance )not to mention his Instagram selfies), I hope Keiynan sticks around for quite a while.
