In a preview photo of the feature, Tinashe is captured with her hand over Scott’s crotch as the two show off upper body skin. Richardson is known to push the limits with his photography, and although this shot is not tasteless, Tinashe’s hand placement does draw attention to sexism.
Let’s be real here: if Scott’s hand were grabbing Tinashe’s crotch, it would create more uproar because women don’t want to be sexualized. In fact, it would be seen as sexist, but because of the social stigma behind men’s (especially black men’s) sexual prowess, this isn’t seen as offensive (to many people).
Not to use Trump as an example, but his “grab her by the p*ssy” comments created quite the controversy. In a time where women are demanding more respect, grabbing a guy by the crotch should be deemed just as insulting.
Another example is when Katy Perry grabbed Shawn Mendes’ butt while he was being interviewed on the iHeartRadio red carpet a week ago. “Someone was just touching my butt, Sorry,” he apologetically told the interviewers. “What if you grabbed her butt back?” one of the interviewers jokingly suggested to Shawn to which he responded, “No, I cannot do that. That’s not good. That’s not a game.” Shawn clearly understood the double standard and knew if he had touched Katy’s butt, his behavior would have come under fire.
We should even the playing field and make both sexes accountable. Let’s not take the easy way out and call images like this “art” or being “edgy.”
"Well, the shoot was already kind of a crazy shoot. We had these different props. We had like this oversized lawn chair. We had like giant pieces of bacon. We were kind of just goofing off and doing whatever we wanted. Actually, the actual reason why I did it was because my manager was like 'You should grab his balls!' I was like, 'Haha! Okay!' and they clicked it. And that's the shot they chose of course," she revealed.
