Sandra Cuevas appeared at the World Cup in a white blouse with a plunging neckline, celebrating Mexico’s advance… and the party turned into a storm. 🌊 Sexualized comments were quick to follow, and many demanded that a former public official “dress more modestly”.

But Cuevas didn’t back down. She was compared to “La Chiquitibum”, the iconic model from 86, and she responded without filters: “I don’t take it as an attack… that’s how we Mexicans are”. 🇲🇽 For one part of social media, it was an example of empowerment. For the other, a public figure should consider how she presents herself.

Does a woman have to change how she dresses because she once held public office… or does the criticism say more about the person making it than about her? 🤔
