The White House faced backlash for "honoring" the University of Georgia women's tennis team with a photo that featured only men in the foreground.
On Tuesday, the Bulldogs were among other NCAA champions that were invited to the White House. To celebrate their accomplishment, the White House's Margo Martin posted a photo on X with the women of the team barely visible behind a group of men, which included President Donald Trump.
"Congratulations, Georgia Women's Tennis!" Martin wrote.
Reactions to the photo were critical.
"Who is being celebrated in this picture? Usually puts the focus of the picture front and center, not hidden behind the dude bros," Winston Smith wrote.
"Good thing the women are showcased. Who are all those other clowns in the picture and what's up with the conman in the middle?" John Gilbert asked. "What a pathetic picture."
"Georgia Women's Tennis, with a bunch of dudes standing in front of them," another commenter complained.
"Of course they put the women in the back. Just like the misogynistic a—holes they are," a user with the handle @mrsccveach noted.
"Where are the women? Oh, there they are, in the back of the bus, behind the white men," Susan jabbed.
