A Mother’s Day advertisement from clothing bland Calvin Klein featuring a pregnant transgender man has draw a backlash on social media, which has split the users with a few supporting it and other discarding it.

Many said “Goodbye Calvin Klein,” “brand canceled,” “Blocked,” “No longer purchasing this brand,” and many more. One wrote: “Thank you for sharing different types of motherhood,” and “I love to see this anti-exclusivity campaign by a brand as legendary as yours.”
