This Facebook post about two women hugging doesn't go where you think it's going to go.

This Facebook post takes an interesting turn.

A Brazilian man has shared this image and his outrage with Facebook followers. And it’s getting a lot of support for a surprising reason.

Translated by Buzzfeed, Nelson writes, “I’m not prejudiced. I think people should do whatever they want to with their lives. But I think it’s absurd that I should be forced to witness a scene like this.”

“What people do in private is their business only, but yes, what they do in public concerns me. And I refuse to see a scene like this and consider it normal.”

At this point it’s all a little bit uncomfortable and you would be forgiven for thinking Nelson is a bit of a homophobe.

But as you take a closer look at the image, the story gets a little more interesting.

“They’re challenging social conventions, and that can be dangerous, what if some tragedy strikes, or worse, if someone dies, who’s to blame,” he writes.

“What would happen to a child who sees this scene every day?”

Then thankfully Nelson finally drops in the real reason for his ‘outrage’.

“Kids will think it’s normal to wait for the subway on the yellow line.”

The ‘outrage’ was over a man standing on the yellow line. Image via Facebook.

“So don’t act like that guy over there. Follow the example of the girls,” he concludes, as the girls are standing well away from the edge.

Ahhhh, good one Nelson. You nearly had us.
