Zeth makes excellent points with logic. However, the lady or mom could be holding the handle of a spaded, (not jaded) shovel and her feet have just pushed the tip into the ground. This could be the last shovel due to the storm. Because it's her mom that works at Home Depot, she may realize that not many women go in to buy shovels.
First glance, yes it indeed looks like a stripper and it very well could be.
Fair enough, I'll take that.
Regardless, it's understandable why the woman would try to redeem her character, no? I mean, even if the intent of the child was to not draw his mother as a stripper, it still could be construed as such with ease. So, would I say that the woman is being overly sensitive and is screaming in defense for no reason? Absolutely not, there is a valid reason, and her clarification is warranted in my opinion.
After much deliberation, I do feel as though I get the jist of this now -- She wouldn't have even pondered for a second there is negative connotation elicited from the picture if not for our judgmental society, right? And this very well may be true, but again, because of the society we're all in, the clarification was understandable.
