As we’ve previously reported, Terica was not concerned about the backlash she received. In an Instagram post, Terica wrote, “Anybody who knows me knows that I’ve been dressing provocative my whole life.”
She continued, “There’s a lot of assumptions that have came with me accepting my body. A lot of people questioned my capabilities and intelligence solely based on how I choose to dress. As I’m standing here with my Masters Degree at the tender age of 24, I am the living proof that clothes do not define you. I encouraged every body to embrace their bodies and step outside social norms.”
