An Aussie mom has sparked a debate after complaining about "sexualized erotic images" on a lingerie store window.
Hannah Curran, who lives in Australia's Northern Territory, took to her Facebook to complain about a local Bras N Things lingerie store that was displaying images of women wearing g-string underwear.
Uploading a video to her Facebook account, Curran can be heard saying: "Shame on you Bras N Things… head office and Gateway Shopping Centre [Northern Territory] are allowing this in public viewing from outside the shop for any age to see."
She also questioned whether the lingerie chain was "trying to turn into a strip club with this for public view."
Check out what she had to say below:NT News managed to speak with the disgruntled shopper, who revealed: "My main concern is children easily being able to see these sexualized erotic images [...] We as a society must protect children and not normalize and promote any pornography, sexual or erotic images."
As detailed by the Daily Mail, several others mirrored Curran's concerns, with one commenting: "Not everyone is OK with a woman's butt, with a g-string shoved up the crack being in full view."
Another wrote: "Maybe turn the display to face the inside of the shop might be better."
Though, it seemed a larger number of users didn't share the mom's sentiments, with one woman writing: "My kids saw g-strings on the line so often that they just assumed full briefs were 'boy underwear'. It's an underwear store, get over it. Focus more attention on what they can access on those screens you hand them to shut them up 10hrs a day."
"It's a bum. A bum is not sexual without a sexual reference. If your kid has that sexual reference then that's on you!" another added.
"Has she never been to an Australian Beach?!? Some of the thong bikinis on there would probably give her a heart attack!" someone else chimed in.
A spokesperson for the shopping mall, Gateway Shopping Centre, told NT News that Curran should direct her complaint to the Bras N Things store in question.
"We take our duty of care very seriously," the spokesperson told the local news outlet. "It was undertaken by the store for the store."
"But if we did receive a complaint, our first action would be to contact the retailer," they added.
