‘Sport was the one place I felt safe’ – Paralympic star on pressure to conform


Paralympic rowing star Lauren Rowles has encouraged young girls to be themselves, after admitting the pressure she felt to conform was damaging to her mental health. I was trying to conform to what society wanted me to look like, so that I didn’t get bullied by people. No one was telling me to wear make-up, look a certain way. That’s me now – I love dressing up, I love fashion, I love playing around with clothes and outfits and I love to wear make-up. pic.twitter.com/65gVGtCLxj — Jude Hamer PLY (@jude__hamer) November 20, 2021“Now I have a healthy relationship with it – I wear make-up when I want to wear make-up, but I don’t feel the need to.
