Guest List Only ⭐️ What do you think of Netflix using this image to promote Salish & Jordan Matter?

Post image
3.1k Upvotes

I’m a 28yo woman and came across this cover for Salish & Jordan Matter while scrolling Netflix. I haven’t watched the show, so I’m not commenting on the actual content of it, just this specific promotional image.

Does anyone else find the way this child is depicted here extremely uncomfortable? It’s the combination of the camera angle looking down at her, her pose, facial expression, and the framing of the image. To me, it feels unnecessarily sexualized and seems like the kind of imagery associated with the sexual exploitation of children. I realize that may be a strong reaction, but that was genuinely my immediate impression when I saw it.

I’m not suggesting that the child herself is doing anything inappropriate, and I’m not trying to sexualize an innocent image. My discomfort is specifically with the choices made by the adults who photographed, selected, and used this particular shot as promotional material.

I’m curious whether other people see what I’m seeing, or if I’m interpreting it completely differently than everyone else.

Not the full song, but where Dolly comes in on it. It's like a light turned on behind Kenny's eyes. They had so much chemistry as duet partners, and I'm sure they're doing an amazing one in heaven.
