Victoria Beckham is under fire for posting a photo kissing her 5-year-old daughter, Harper, on the lips. 

 

维多利亚·贝克汉姆晒出亲吻5岁女儿哈珀嘴唇的照片，由此引火上身。
 

 

Beckham posted the photo for her daughter's birthday, writing "Happy Birthday baby girl. We all love you so much." 

 

Commenters attacked the fashion designer for the innocent photo, writing things like, "Eww sorry I'm old fashioned it looks like they [are] making out," "totally wrong" and "That's one passionate¹ kiss right there ... Hope she gets so passionate with @davidbeckham." Social etiquette² expert Liz Brewer³ told the BBC that she found the photo "uncomfortable." 

 

"Normally with a member of your family you don't kiss on the lips unless it's your husband," Brewer said. "With children, I wouldn't have thought it's a particularly good habit to get into but it's her child and she's at liberty to do what she thinks is best." 

 

After the photo was picked up by the media, Beckham's page became flooded with comments supporting her and her daughter. 

 

"Shame on whoever who thinks they can't do that without it being some sort of sexual thing," said one user, while others slammed people who thought the photo was controversial. One commenter wrote, "How is this even a fucking topic of discussion!? This is a mother showing affection to her daughter, you freaks!"
