Popular Actress Viral “Hairy Toes” Pic Triggers Internet-Wide Debate

The photos are actually not recent.

Philosopher Simone de Beauvoir once said, “to be a woman is to perform,” reflecting on the pressures women face simply to exist.

Some of these pressures are internal, but a large majority, including those discussions around women’s grooming, are pushed by society.

However, a recent post seemed to “expose” what some considered an imperfection.

Toe hair is completely normal and results from genetics and hormones, and can be an indicator of good circulation.

While it is not entirely clear whether the image is of Jiang’s foot, the internet has chimed in on discussions about reactions to women’s body hair.
