One might think that a woman who freely shows herself on social media would no longer be a big issue. Yet actress Ruby O. Fee regularly experiences otherwise.

Comments like “She’s so beautiful, why does she have to show herself like that?” or similar sentiments frequently appear under Ruby O. Fee’s posts on Instagram, especially when she wears an outfit that reveals a bit more skin. Usually, the actress leaves such messages unanswered, not giving haters a platform. However, in an interview with the magazine Stern, she now addresses the issue.

“The more visibly you live your femininity–whether in clothing, the way you move, speak, or present yourself–the more often you have to prove that you’re more than a projection,” explains Ruby O. Fee regarding ongoing outfit criticism. Many people categorize women who consciously dress revealingly and deny them certain qualities based on their appearance. But the 29-year-old confidently states, “Don’t worry, my brain works even in a bikini.”

Ruby uses Instagram to promote her films and projects, but also to share snapshots showing her in various looks. The actress doesn’t want to be pigeonholed, wearing sweatpants and sneakers one day and a bikini and glitter skirt the next.

Time in Brazil Shaped Ruby O. Fee

Ruby O. Fee attributes her outfits to her eventful childhood. She was born in Costa Rica, but also lived with her family in Brazil for some time and reportedly attended kindergarten in Indonesia. According to her own statement to the magazine Gala, her family “led a nomadic life” and further: “Each country evokes a different feeling in me. But in Brazil, we lived for a longer time in a mini-hippie village in Bahia, where I felt very safe. I had many friends, could roam freely, and for the first time in my life, I had a house number I could remember. The sea was only ten minutes away. It felt like home for the first time. When it became more civilized there, we moved away.”

Her time in Brazil, in particular, had a significant influence on Ruby O. Fee’s outfits, as it is a “country where femininity, joie de vivre, and sensuality are naturally part of everyday life,” and she continues to embody that today.
