Maya Hawke's NSFW Music Video Makes a Bold Statement About Women's Bodies

Stranger Things actress Maya Hawke sheds her good girl image for her latest music video, "Thérèse." The video is a far cry from the sci-fi series, featuring Hawke engaging in a nude romp in the woods with strangers, which ultimately leads to their arrest by the police. 

Despite the explicit content, the video transcends mere titillation. Hawke bares all to make a powerful statement about a woman's right to control her own body and sexuality. 

The song's title references the controversial painting, "Thérèse Dreaming" by Balthus, which depicts a young girl experiencing her first period. Hawke has expressed a connection to the painting's subject matter, and the video embodies this connection. She even mimics the painting's pose in an Instagram post promoting the song.

The video delves into societal attitudes towards nudity and sex. It challenges the idea that something might be deemed scandalous by one person, yet perfectly normal to another. This bold move is particularly noteworthy for a young woman who has grown up in the public eye, under the constant scrutiny that comes with famous parents.  

Hawke's willingness to be so open and vulnerable is a refreshing take on female sexuality in media. It sparks a conversation about bodily autonomy and challenges the idea that women's bodies are there for the male gaze. 

Personal thoughts: Although this is an artistic music video, it still has female nudity and even an oral scene. I was shocked to see people engaging in Orgy and YouTube not delete the video; if it were a small YouTube channel, the video along with the channel would've been permanently deleted.

But hey, I appreciate all types of female nudity.
