Some Things are Not What it Seems

I stumbled on a pictue on my facebook wall, posted by a friend with a lady in mid stride crossing a street.  The woman is wearing an all white outfit, a tightly fitted pants and also a tight blouse.  The picture is taken from behind at an angle a bit to the left.  There is more going on in the picture, but what got my attention was the woman’s figure, especially her buttocks; so I clicked on the picture for a better look, and also because I wanted to read the text beneath the picture that was too small to read.  The text which was written by the woman in the picture boyfriend, explain that he was walking holding hands with her, but stop to take the picture.  He continued to explain, that he didn't know why he was slapped by his girl for taking the picture because all he was trying to do was capture an unbelieveable event, which is a dog driving a car.  The moral of the story is that somethings are not what they seems.   

This is a common lesson that many people learn in their life by personal experience.  People tend to not give others the benefit of the doubt unless they had a similar experience.  In the picture, it’s easy to assume that the focal point or the main reason to look at the picture-if you are a man-is to admire the woman’s rear end in a tight white pants.  It is easy to assume that if you see a man pointing his camera in the general vicinity of the woman the he must be a pervert objectifying women.  Many people rarely step back and say wait a minute, let me not assume if I don’t have all the information.
