AIBU to think this over sexualised photo is just weird!

Christmas elves are magical, cheeky and apparently now “sexy” with Amanda Holden. I just find it so weird for grown women to dress up like this and kiss in this way.

I am well titillated

The airbrushing alone is disturbing.

There's so much of this now.

Thought women were feeling more comfortable in their bodies. Clearly not.

Tal45 · 17/12/2021 20:53

I'm very confused, why would they be kissing? I am not a fan of AH and that's putting it mildly.

MrsTerryPratchett · 17/12/2021 20:54

This is dreadful on so very many levels.

The only way it isn't is as wank fodder for men who think lesbians are secretly straight and will shag them. Which is ducking shit if you think about it.

ColitisSucks · 17/12/2021 20:54

It's a tad odd isn't it. Her eyes are open, I think that's why it feels a bit perfunctory?

Elsiebear90 · 17/12/2021 20:54

I think it’s clearly attention seeking and although I hate the term queer it’s also “queerbaiting”.

Owt for publicity

That weird creepy hand holding up the mistletoe doesn't help

OutOfCyan · 17/12/2021 20:55

The floating hand freaks me out

@OutOfCyan

The floating hand freaks me out
And it's a bloke's hand right?
NovemberNovemberDarkNights · 17/12/2021 20:57

If you hold your nose & zoom
In, it looks like they're sharing a strawberry! Or cocktail sausage?!

HeartOfClass · 17/12/2021 20:58

I don't know these people in the photo...but it is sooo sooo bad.

If it were to have any sense of realism then the body posture is just totally wrong, and the hands would not be in those locations, at least it would not be for me :)

Then again, I've never been in a lesbian relationship so what do I know.

It's not very covid secure is it? 😁

DixieSun · 17/12/2021 20:59

She's my least favourite tv person. I'm sure if the people who hired her ask us normal folk they'd stop it. I can't watch anything she's on, she's too me me me

DismantledKing · 17/12/2021 20:59

She’s sell one of her kidneys for a tiny bit of attention. I can’t stand her.

ShirleyPhallus · 17/12/2021 21:00

Amanda Holden will literally do anything to stay in the public eye

Doesn’t she read MN threads about herself and kick off about them though?

ethelredonagoodday · 17/12/2021 21:00

Grim.

I forgot that!!!

ShirleyPhallus · 17/12/2021 21:01

Oh yeah, and she’s used a cheapo photoshop app to make herself thinner, no one has that much of a gap between their waist and inner elbow

penniesdimesapplespears · 17/12/2021 21:01

Mutton desperately dressed as lamb Xmas GrinIt's very embarrassing

QueenJeanie · 17/12/2021 21:02

She's had Les Dennis's balls on her chin

YellowandGreenToBeSeen · 17/12/2021 21:02

It’s not the ‘attention seeking’ (I hate this phrase - never levied at men) I deplore, more the pandering to the shit, lazy and unimaginative sexual stereotypes.

Just so fucking boring.

I like ‘older’ women being sexy. More fucking power to them / us all. But, Mandy, do try to keep up with the narrative - faux lesbianism is just so… passé. Zoo Magazine isn’t cool babe.

Hoppinggreen · 17/12/2021 21:03

@ProudThrilledHappy

At least she isn’t naked with Rudolph nipple tassels I guess.
