Oh the dreaded thigh gap. Girls everywhere aspired to have this modelesque body where the upper thighs do not touch, creating a gap. However, this is basically impossible for any woman to achieve. But now, another thigh obsession is taking over, one that supports a more positive body image and we are thrilled!
Contrary to what the name may suggest, a “thigh brow” has nothing to do with hair on the thigh. Whew, that’s a relief. As demonstrated above by the Kardashian/ Jenners, a “thigh brow” is the crease on the upper thigh which forms when a woman sits or kneels. This crease resembles an eyebrow, thus the name.
Recently, there has been a shift in attention away from the thigh gap and towards the thigh brow. Some have celebrated this change as a thigh brow is something women of all shapes and sizes have and does not encourage poor body image. However, still others feel that commodification of women’s’ bodies of any kind is negative and harmful.
What do you think of this new trend? Are you going to show off your thigh brow?
