24-year-old Emily Clow was body-shamed by a potential employer for a picture she posted on Instagram of herself wearing a bikini. The company posted the photo to their Instagram story and deemed it inappropriate.
When Emily Clow applied for a marketing coordinator position at a business start-up, Kickass Masterminds in Austin, Texas, the last thing she expected was to be objectified and humiliated online. The 24-year-old told NBC News that she initially felt hopeful about the position, given that a company representative had reached out shortly after she applied to say that they wanted to move forward with her application. They’d also recommended that Clow follow the company on Instagram, which she did.
Then, one day while watching Kickass Masterminds’ Instagram Stories, Clow saw a photo of herself in a red two-piece bathing suit with a warning message to potential applicants. i was objectified earlier today by a company because of a picture of me in a bikini. they claimed it made me an “unprofessional.” they screenshot the photo, posted it on their insta story and called me out.
Thankfully, though, since it was an Instagram Story, the post only had a 24-hour lifespan and eventually went away on its own. Still, it left an understandably negative impact on Clow.“I am still baffled that the company handled it in such a manner,” she added on Twitter. Clow also tweeted a screenshot of the company’s LinkedIn page, where the firm ironically describes its ideal client as someone who “yearns for freedom” and is “ballsy enough to chase after it.”— Emily Clow October 1, 2019 Since Clow’s post went viral, Kickass Masterminds’ website and social media pages have all been made private or taken down. Meanwhile, Clow has received an outpouring of support on Twitter.
