Umani ng reaksiyon at komento mula sa netizens ang pag-flex ng seasoned character actress na si Melissa Mendez sa kaniyang "unfiltered" na katawan, partikular sa kaniyang tiyan.
Makikita sa kaniyang Instagram post kamakailan ang kaniyang larawan kung saan makikitang nakasuot siya ng gym outfit, na kitang-kita ang kaniyang tiyan.
Kapansin-pansin naman ang mga "kulubot" sa tiyan na ayon kay Melissa ay dulot ng kaniyang panganganak.
"My body.Reality. Unfiltered. My body has gone through a lot. It gave birth to three beautiful children who are now adults. It has weathered time as it grew older at 60. It has undergone menopause. It has extensively undergone weight loss thus the wrinkled, sagging and loose skin is very evident. It has stretch marks. It is flawed," saad ni Melissa.
Vice Ganda kay Max Collins: 'Mabubulok ka rin!'
Sa kabilang banda, masaya at proud naman daw siya sa kung anuman ang status ng kaniyang katawan ngayon.
"But my body isn’t complaining and grumbling. In fact my body is proud for what it is, having survived it all. It’s happy just the way it is," dagdag pa niya.

"Good for her. She's being real. Not many can be happy for fear of being criticized. She's had her struggles like all of us. But she endured. She's okay and that's what counts. It is these testimonials that gives other woman a reason to believe in oneself no matter the journey. For we all grow old. Childbearing weight gain menopause are part of the struggles woman face. Why not celebrate the positive rather than the negatives. The most important thing is being happy in your own skin. God Bless her.."
"I love it. A sign of strength. "
