The Bare Truth has continued growing since our first edition last year. This year, in an effort to continue fighting stereotypical definitions of beauty, we have invited men to join us. Our models are still braving their demons to speak candidly and powerfully about their experiences and struggles, empowering themselves as agents of change and protagonists of awareness. Our models have again stepped into the spotlight this year and bared all in a movement to show the world that we are all different, and we're all beautiful; and to hopefully show themselves this as well. Our wonderful staff are all volunteers, and our models come from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds, body shapes and walks of life. This represents not only the diversity of race and physical appearance that is not typically showcased by the mass media, but is also an effort to showcase how these issues affect us all. The Bare Truth aims to raise awareness for healthy body image and self esteem, gender issues, sexuality, the diversity of body shape, size, colour and gender, and for mental health issues, bullying, harassment and abuse, and to combat the stigma surrounding them.
