'I was bullied for my flat chest - now I proudly share bikini pics to hit back at trolls'

Despite the rise of the body positivity movement in recent years, women of all shapes and sizes have experienced bullying while growing up as the pressure to conform to the 'ideal' body type permeates society.

Clara Dao has opened up about her experience of being harassed by trolls who dubbed her "anorexic", calling for her to "put some meat on your bones" and even asking whether she is "a dude" - all because she has a small chest and is naturally slim.
