Turns out; the world at large does not think Christmas should be about binding and gagging women and girls...
The image was shared on Facebook last Sunday afternoon by Louisiana photographer Hannah Hawkes who took the snap, and was quickly condemned, with people calling it ‘tasteless’ and ‘sexist’. In fact, the feedback got so bad eventually that Facebook decided to remove the offensive image altogether.
Ho ho oh NO.
In fairness, we are pretty sure that this was just an attempt, by the family themselves, to be funny and to make their family and friends laugh. And that despite the father and son doing a thumbs-up, they really love the girlies of the family, but still. Maybe a little tasteless, no?
Meanwhile, Hawkes got so much hatred sent her way after posting the image, she had to come out and publicly defend it. This message was uploaded to her personal Facebook account this week:
Seriously, though, people, how about next year just putting on a dogdy Christmas jumper and say 'cheese' like the rest of us, no?
