This 56-Year-Old Woman Is Destroying Age Stereotypes With Her NSFW Photos
Julie H, who also goes by the name ‘The Burning Lotus’ is a 56-year-old model from Texas to whom age is just a number. Her provocative pictures have been surfacing on the internet and providing people with inspiration for a while now.
“I posted my images initially as a dare to myself ― again, an affirmation of existence,” Julie said. She became pretty popular online after uploading a picture of herself holding up her black bra. “The ‘senior ink’ image caught fire in a random way that still confuses and overwhelms me,” she said.
From that point, her Tumblr follower count has been steadily growing (it already surpassed 92k). People admire Julie’s courage. “I bring them hope about the aging process and/or they are no longer frightened about growing old.” Julie claims that society assigns value and stigma on what is acceptable and what isn’t. Her advice? “Confidence is primal and raw. Let that shit OUT. Life is too short to play it halfway.”
