Reality television contestants turned real life couple Tiffany Scanlon and Megan Marx have again been forced to defend their relationship.
This time, it’s come after the pair appeared topless on the cover of a men’s magazine.
Scanlon, 30, who met her girlfriend on the set of The Bachelor this year, explained their decision to pose for Maxim despite knowing full well it would “ruffle feathers”.
“I’m excited and I’m super proud of what [Megan] and I have achieved here,” she wrote in a long post on her Instagram account.
“I do what I want because I want to; not for anybody else; not to impress or offend or any other reason than because I WANT TO and I honestly don’t need anyone’s approval.
“I have always and will always continue to advocate acceptance and no labels in all areas of life. I don’t label myself or my relationship; I simply live and love and create life on my own terms.”
She also attacked the idea that the cover was “anti-feminist” and said she admired the magazine for “pushing boundaries”.

Go girls! I love their "don't give a damn" attitude. If I looked like that, I'd pose nude on the cover of Maxim too. You only live once.
God. What complete and utter drivel. "Maxim may be sold as a mens mag, but what does that matter? I really like reading it...and they have shown us more support..." By all means, exercise your right as a free human being to pose for whatever magazine you want, but please, please don't try and claim that this overtly sexual shoot that is designed for anything other than the male straight gaze.
