'Respect people. Respect bodies. Respect all women. Respect humans.'
Even though Pugh knew the dress would get a reaction, she didn't understand why people felt the need to comment negatively on her body—or why seeing breasts upset them so much.
"What's been interesting to watch and witness is just how easy it is for men to totally destroy a woman's body, publicly, proudly, for everyone to see. You even do it with your job titles and work emails in your bio..?" Pugh wrote. "It isn't the first time and certainly won't be the last time a woman will hear what's wrong with her body by a crowd of strangers, what's worrying is just how vulgar some of you men can be," she continued.
Remarking specifically on the comments about her breasts, Pugh went on,"So many of you wanted to aggressively let me know how disappointed you were by my 'tiny [expletive]', or how I should be embarrassed by being so 'flat chested'. I've lived in my body for a long time. I'm fully aware of my breast size and am not scared of it. What's more concerning is…. Why are you so scared of breasts? Small? Large? Left? Right? Only one? Maybe none? What. Is. So. Terrifying.
"I did a job where it was made very apparent that I needed to lose weight [by the team working on the production] and when it was over, I was very aware I didn't want to do that kind of work," she told the magazine."Because I was faced with that, I realized what I wanted to represent, and had that not happened, I may not have overcome my issues with my body at such an early age. I'm happy about that, but a lot of women aren't that lucky.
