Don't mess with this singer! Amber Rose had a great response to slut-shaming on Saturday. She posted a photo of herself in lingerie and told the haters to back off — because she wasn't backing down. As we know, making women feel bad for what they choose to wear is prevalent online, and celebrities are frequent targets. This is especially true of celebrities like Amber Rose who aren't afraid to share their body in real life and on social media.
But slut-shamers have an extra special message for Amber Rose, which is that they're mad she's being provocative when she's also a mom. She's the mother to 2-year-old Sebastian Taylor Thomaz, and for that reason, a lot of people are angry that she posts racy pictures on her social media accounts.
It's not uncommon for people to pick on celebrity mothers for everything they're supposedly doing wrong. And in the public's eyes, sometimes these women are "too sexy" to be moms. Amber Rose has received messages along the same lines as the ones Kim Kardashian received not long ago when she was spotted wearing a cleavage-bearing blazer while pushing daughter North West in her stroller. People were appalled to see a mother wearing revealing clothing, as if what they wear has any affect on their abilities to parent.
It's kind of interesting that Kardashian and Amber Rose have the same sort of slut-shamers in common, especially since Amber Rose had recently been feuding with Kardashian and even called her a "whore," and Khloe Kardashian defended her sister by calling Rose one right back. So I think her most recent post is really important for everyone to see and learn from, including Amber Rose herself.
Let's not slut-shame anyone, OK? Wear what you want (whether you're a mother or not), and leave everyone else alone because motherhood and life is hard enough without being shamed for how you dress.
