Because, y'know... DV is an art

So much sickens me about this. This wasn't done for an ad campaign, or as part of a film where they raise awareness of DV (eg; Waitress). This is just glamourising domestic violence. And it's making me bloody sick to see how many people think this is acceptable.

Yes, that's what I mean. Grinning doesn't = glamour imo but it does trivialise a very serious issue which imo is just as bad.

You don't think it glamourises it?

She's bloody grinning in some of them

"Oooh, look. Being a DV victim is so fun!"

Those pictures are ridiculous. What are they meant to be representing?

I don't think it glamourises DV but I think it certainly trivialises the issue. The photos are crap, I just don't see the point of the shoot at all. Very poor decision on the part of everyone involved.
