But as you may have seen this week, with my naked photoshoot, things have changed. I’m proud to be an older cover girl, making a stand as an Asian woman, celebrating my curves. For a long time I’d been brainwashed into thinking my body would bring shame on my family. He took advantage of a culture where women could not speak of abuse for fear of bringing shame on loved ones. Sadly I knew many people in the Asian community would be incensed by it and would turn on my poor mum.
