LONDON — Outraged by Instagram’s recent steps toward obscuring or outright censoring sexual content and hoping to connect with likeminded women, Be A Bimbo founder Alicia Amira has kicked off a new blog called Bimbo Life.
The first column is titled “Becoming Bimbo” and, according to a rep, it offers "her fascinating tale of how she transformed her life from a regular girl to the world’s foremost bimbo." She wrote that it was the most difficult thing she had ever done. "Her life had always been easy — she had money and friends — and she’d never encountered any real obstacles," they said. "The first challenge was the day she chose to dress how she wanted."
Amira explained, “It's not an exaggeration to say that nothing in my life had been challenging until the day I chose to dress how I wanted, do my hair and makeup how I wanted, and work with what I wanted. Isn't that just ironic? Once I became a bimbo, I was met with more judgment than I had ever encountered before in my life. And from that judgment came a realization: It's about time someone stood up against this. It's about time we stand up for our dreams instead of pretending to be someone, or something, we are not!”
All of her work with Be A Bimbo and the related ventures are centered on "empowerment and shattering stereotypes." She was outraged that people suddenly thought she was stupid because she had changed her clothes, especially the judgment over bigger boobs, blonder hair and dressing sluttier.
“Be a Bimbo is a movement of utmost importance for women like us everywhere,” she wrote. “Together we can end the stigma. Together we can create a world where a woman can be proud to be a woman, proud to embrace her femininity and proud to take ownership of her own sexuality without anyone thinking less of her.”
