The luxurious feel of womanhood
Rihanna
Letters
April 19, 2022

The luxurious feel of womanhood

Dear Editor,

Rihanna steals her own thunder and unmistakably captures the spotlight and centre stage everywhere she goes.

The cameras of the world are focused on this heorine not only because of her rock star, chart-busting songs, but also her amazing, jaw-dropping, internationally understood, confident body language.

The Barbadian national heroine has ripped away the shackles of body shamming, and the new and old testament rejoice like Mary, Elizabeth, and Hannah for the celebration of a new life.

The skin, a glorious organ, gets to revel in its own castle — a place for all contours and curves. Barbadian George Lamming, author of In the Castle of My Skin, would surely agree.

Thanks so much, heroine, for stepping into your God-given role.

Helen-Ann Elizabeth
