Serena Williams earns herself GQ cover that leaves social media confused

Serena Williams made it to the cover of GQ magazine. In the cover, she is looking bold and beautiful in a black bodysuit.

It is however not what she is wearing or how she looks that got social media users talking. It was the magazine’s cover title.

The title offended hSerena’s fans when the word ‘woman’ in the title is in quotation marks.

But a clear marketing objective shouldn’t have to be clarified. GQ has sent a confusing message with this cover.
