"You're so hot!"
“你真性感!”
Like most fathers would be, Chris "Burr" Martin was taken aback when he saw that comment posted in response to one of his 19-year-old daughter Cassie's sexy selfies on her Instagram account.
和很多父亲一样,当看到自己年方19岁的女儿凯西,在社交网站Instagram所发“性感”自拍照下面的评论时,克里斯·马丁大吃一惊……
Instead of telling her to stop posting the photos or giving her a lengthy lecture, the Spokane, Washington-based comedian creatively decided to take some selfies of his own.
但是,这位华盛顿斯波坎市的父亲没有阻止女儿发照片,也没有跟她苦口婆心聊一些大道理,而是想了另外一个法子--女儿拍一张,他就仿照原样跟一张。
"I did it because she posted something and the guys in the comment section were too much," Martin said. "So to put water on the fire, I posted one like it and said, 'What about me, guys?' and that did it."
“我这么做,是因为在她Instagram下评论的男生太多了”,马丁说,“所以为了灭灭火,我也晒一样的照片,'小子们,你们觉得我怎么样?'”
Martin has re-created five of Cassie's selfies and proudly posted them to his Instagram account. He now has more than 16,000 followers on Instagram.
马丁模仿凯西拍了5张自拍照,很自豪的将它们发到Instagram帐户。现在,他在Instagram上一举成名,有了16000多名粉丝。
How did Cassie react?
对于这一行为,凯西是如何看待的?
"She rolled her eyes at first, but once she saw her friends thought it was funny, she was OK with it," Martin said. "I enjoy making people laugh."
"开始的时候她是对我翻白眼,不过后来她的朋友们都觉得很有趣,女儿也就ok了"。马丁表示,“可以让大家一乐,我也很开心”。
Martin is just one of many fathers in the United States who have used humor as a part of parenting and have drawn lots of attention while doing it. In 2013, Utah dad Scott Mackintosh wore super-short shorts in a photo posted online when he didn't want his daughter Myley to wear shorts shorter than what he approved of. Just like Cassie, Myley couldn't help but chuckle.
马丁用幽默方式来教育孩子,并引起了巨大的关注,不过这只是美国许多父亲中的一位。2013年,犹他州一位名叫斯科特·麦金托什的父亲,因为不希望他的女儿米蕾穿比他认同的还要短的超短裤,于是穿上超短裤出门并将其发布到网上。就像凯西一样,米蕾也只能哭笑不得。
