'I’m a cougar in my 40s & people tell me not to wear a bikini - I don’t care'

A woman has gone viral for her body positivity message hitting back at stereotypes that claim women over 40 shouldn't wear revealing outfits. Fans were left delighted at her latest video - which captured the mum in a bikini, unedited, showing off her natural body.

Gypsy Lee has over 13,000 followers on the app and often posts videos challenging stereotypes of things older women should or shouldn't do according to society. The bikini video, which has racked up more than one million views, starts with her off-screen with the statement 'Mom's over 40 shouldn't wear a bikini. Wanna bet?' written front and centre.

The self confessed cougar then steps into frame as the words vanished to reveal herself wearing a black bikini, embracing her "#mombod", which mimics the male body positivity movement's reclamation of the "dad bod".
