A woman who was allegedly kicked out of a shop over her shorts being too short has hit back at the critics, saying she’s being bullied for being ‘too hot’.
It’s generally accepted that when it comes to what other people wear, it’s best to keep your opinions to yourself.
However, a lot of establishments have a certain set of rules when it comes to what is and what isn’t acceptable to wear.
And now one woman’s incredibly short shorts have been at the centre of an online debate.
She believes she was being bullied for being ‘too hot’, but other people on social media have a whole other theory on what went down…
Kerolay Chaves, from Brazil, took to Instagram to complain about the censorship of her rather revealing outfit.
“I just got home from the supermarket and was harassed for wearing ‘too short’ clothes,” she claimed on social media, translated from Portuguese to English.
“Some people looked at me with judgment, others cursed me, and in the end, I was thrown out of the store.
“Can you believe it? I think it’s absurd that women are still treated this way just because we choose to dress how we want. The truth is, we go through this because we’re too hot.”
Chaves also shared a photo of the outfit that allegedly sparked the controversy—denim shorts so short they resembled underwear.
However, much to her disappointment, most people sided with the store staff, agreeing that her attire was inappropriate.
“No need to go to a supermarket dressed like that,” wrote one critic, adding. “You are embarrassing the decent people who are often there with children.”
Another joked: “I guess the same way a shirtless man would get kicked out of the spot happened to you.”
On top of this, some people were not convinced about her story.
One wrote: “Clearly it was for engagement and Instagram likes. She never went to the supermarket like this. Those who follow the stories know. I’m sorry, but this can’t help you.”
A second added: “Stop using serious subjects for engagement fia. It’s not prejudice that you’re clueless.”
Somebody else pointed out: “She even had time to take a picture before being kicked out…”
Another detective remarked, “There’s a piece of clothing in the cart… I don’t think she walked into the store dressed like that. Maybe she covered the bottom part and took the pictures just for that purpose. I doubt she was kicked out of anywhere, especially since it looks like the store was empty.”
“She probably picked an isolated spot, took the photos, and posted them with that controversial caption just to attract attention.”
