Shortly after the album’s release, the cover image sparked significant discussion and controversy. It featured Carpenter in a black minidress and heels, while on her hands and knees, with a man out of frame holding her hair. This was Carpenter’s symbol of self-awareness and personal choice within emotional vulnerability. However, it was misconstrued as promoting misogynistic stereotypes.
