The Internet didn’t take the news that Kim Kardashian had posted yet another topless selfie (this time with model Emily Ratajkowski) lying down.

The women’s photo inspired some angry responses on Twitter, particularly from Piers Morgan, who had several things to say about it (this is just a sampling):

If women genuinely think this photo advocates women's rights & equality, then feminism as it was intended is dead. pic.twitter.com/8Anm7yPYfI

It's supposed to be the advocacy of women's rights & equality with men.
Not, I dare to suggest, topless selfies. https://t.co/XtaogLmJ8t

RIP feminism. pic.twitter.com/dqxKla2i5Q

Just a thought @KimKardashian @emrata - but you could always try wearing a little dignity?pic.twitter.com/ce4qEvn0ls

I like @KimKardashian but she'd be so much more empowering to women now by proving she can succeed with her clothes on & middle finger down.

Morgan wasn’t the only one who spoke out against the picture:

Others had a more positive response:

The amount of confidence @KimKardashian and @emrata have with their bodies is truly inspirational. You go girls! 👏 pic.twitter.com/axOXLyAqS6

@emrata @KimKardashian Men have just as much right to comment on women as women. We are HUMAN! Kim look fricking awesome. #MenArePeopleToo

For their part, Kardashian and Ratajkowski have also responded to the responses:

Even if being sexualized by society's gaze is demeaning, there must be a space where women can still be sexual when they choose to be.
