Uorfi Javed has been controversy’s favorite child ever since the paparazzi started filming her in her OTT outfits. From Bollywood celebs to authors, a lot of well-known people have criticized her fashion sense. But, the model and social media personality hasn’t shied away from giving them a piece of her mind.
Recently, Uorfi stepped out of her home wearing a green transparent dress with a mask and a chunky gold choker.

She was papped going across the city in her outfit that was termed ‘outrageous’ by many people online. Offended by the clothes the model puts on her body, Arnaz Hathiram, who advocates for men’s rights in India, said that by showing up in public places dressed as she dresses, she is having a negative impact on minor children.
Tagging Priyank Kanoongo, chairperson of the National Commission for Protection Of Child Rights in her tweet, Hathiram wrote:
Dear @KanoongoPriyank ji, This is a serious question
If a woman (#UrfiJaved) is dressing up daily like this & visiting public places, what impact would it have on minor children witnessing such obscenity
This is not Women Empowerment & people need to call out this rubbish pic.twitter.com/mGDPSGsJsO

The moment she shared the tweet, people online came to the comments section to share their two cents on the matter. While some backed Uorfi saying she can wear whatever she wants, others thought she is promoting obscenity in public places. Take a look:
It’s their choice, none of our business

“Minor children” will get the impression that they live in a free democracy which respects everyone’s rights no matter the religion or class. You wouldn’t call this obscenity in the US or Europe but “nO nOt AlloWeD in India” hutttt.

Teach kids not to get excited when they see this. Teach them this is normal. Tell them there are approximately 7 billion people in this world and everyone gets to decide what they wear.

Agree cent percent . Obscenity can’t be called as fashion , modernism or my body my right etc.

To any women, who wear this dress on public platform should be stopped by the regulatory authorities.
With all due respect to the women's in the world.

This is a serious question
I am totally agree with you @ArnazHathiram
This girl is openly spreading obscenity in society and is crushing Indian culture day by day. #shame_on_urfi https://t.co/iMdfo2uByK— Dr k k (@Drkkchauhan77) December 10, 2022
Dear whosever,
She can wear whatever she wants . Teach your kids especially boys to accept woman’s body as hers and not for them to ogle or letch. And normalise it rather than having them watch trash on screens and then attacking women. It’s her freedom of expression. Let her be. https://t.co/FZ1O0ZdZlH— Seetu Mahajan Kohli (@kohliseetu) December 9, 2022
Minor children are watching free porn everyday anyway. https://t.co/ku93GMWEq7

Well the kids need to be taught that the clothes not maketh the man. Excellent time to have the convo with your children about body autonomy and consent. She is NEVER asking for it. https://t.co/MP8KIMvEiQ

Obscenity is such a funny concept, especially coming from people in a country where the primary traditional clothing choice spanning across SEVERAL cultures is a saree. https://t.co/SowdNDTNBz

Come on.. This is her choice..
No one can ever ask her a question even if she wants to wear that or not..
If you question, you can't tolerate women's liberation, equality, and freedom. https://t.co/jfpRJFBRi8

My son is taught to respect women no matter what they wear. Put your gaze down. https://t.co/Ekt4rTbTN5

Then teach your kids its her body, her choice, her wish, her legs, she can go wherever she wants, you're nobody to call her out.
And teach your boys especially, even though she is wearing such clothes, she's not inviting anyone for any kind of "relationship". https://t.co/H6rl82BgUk

My minor would have seen a woman in a green transparent dress. My teenager has been taught to not stare at women even if they are naked. He alone is responsible for how he behaves. https://t.co/dmD8mWId0f

Since we’re here, talking about minor kids and women being objectified, how about teaching kids about freedom, consent, and boundaries? Don’t you think?
