Feminist Hayat Rachi says she’s fed up with lingerie that objectifies and sexualizes the female body and is launching a brand of more conservative lingerie, to counter the issue, with the help of a Kickstarter campaign.
Rachi’s Neon Moon collection plans to release its first line, titled Mon Dieo, soon, which is free of wiring or cleavage boosting padding and is designed for women of all body types, “including women who embrace pubic, leg and underarm hair.”
In other words, Neon Moon will be about as risqué as it sounds.
“Instead of succumbing to the body shaming, sexualized and objectifying lingerie on the market, I used my frustration to start my own brand,” Rachi explains on the fundraising site.
“Not everything is about being sexy or being objectified for the male gaze,” she continued. “I found it difficult to find a lingerie brand that shared the same ethos as myself: empowerment, body confidence and the non-objectification of women.”
The new line of undergarments, which has antibacterial properties, is fashioned strictly from sustainable bamboo fabric, because lace and satin mold to the wearer’s body, which might highlight curves.
Rachi hand picked her models for the brand, women who sport healthier and natural bodies, she said, rather than standard fashion models.
Her underwear styles are named with “Francophile sounding words, calling them: Coucou, Bof, Tac-Tac and Non.” “They are really vibrant and fun words to pronounce, which works well with the vibrant colors of the bras and knickers,” she said.
New Moon will revolutionize the underwear world by being a “body-positive, feminist lingerie brand.”
According to her: “Feminist lingerie is not a privilege, it’s a right.”

Why? Your typical feminist who doesn’t shave her underarms or legs (or face) attracts about as much attention as a stripe on the road.
LOL
Whoa! Whoa the Freak WHOA! Back the truck up right here. Don't need to read that.
It is important to a true feminist to look repulsive to men, even though no man will ever see her in her under wear.
Grannie panties and training bras....
However shall Victoria’s Secret survive this assault?
Ohmygawd. It's Pajama Boy.
Chick is an idiot or the wind is blowing awfully hard today.
Those outfits fill my sails.
Besides, I like it when women dress like it’s my birthday or Christmas.
They get loads of attention and pretty much whatever they want.
Besides, food should not only taste good but, heighten the the senses visually, to the touch, taste and scent.
Luv me sumb weemen...

And she’ll end up being an angry old bitty and wonder why men were never interested in her.
Looks like she has Buckwheat in a head-lock!
She’s pouting in a “Come hither, this way” kind of look.
