 'I think people aren't comfortable with feminine sexuality. I find people are uncomfortable when a woman is expressing her sexuality instead of repressing it. In our society, nude or sexually suggestive images of women are automatically seen as negative and objectifying and is often seen through a male perspective rather than from a female's. We need to make room for the female view of sex and accept it. Until then, people are going to be uncomfortable with photos like mine.'  Petra for Oyster magazine

Girl crushin' on Petra Collins this month. If you aren't a fellow follower of her instagram i'd highly recommend it; she's a gal that oozes vintage vibes and captures tongue-in-cheek female sexuality beautifully. A definite must on your newsfeed.
