Kim Zolciak is still super proud about her thigh gap...and many people are still unimpressed.

The 37-year-old Don't Be Tardy star and Real Housewives of Atlanta alum drew some criticism when she posted on her Instagram page on Tuesday a photo of herself showing it off again, while wearing ripped blue jeans. She had also received negative comments in August after sharing a similar pic and has occasionally posted photos of herself in a bikini, again showcasing a thigh gap.

"Date night but only have an hour! Gotta make time even if it's quick...I don't need to stick my butt out or point my feet in to have a thigh gap I have one even if I stand on my head #BornWithIt #ILoveYouJuicy #IDontPostForYourOpinion #ItsMYIGSoIPostPicsOfMe #ThatsNothingNew," the mother of six wrote on Tuesday. 

Some of the negative comments she drew included, "Shallow," "Get over yourself already" and "You are such a loser. Focus on being a mother not looking like a slut."

Others defended Zolciak.

"Haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate! Look great as always Kim!!" one person wrote.

The thigh gap has become a controversial issue, with its critics claiming it promotes an unhealthy body image. One of its most vocal opponents is Demi Lovato, who has battled an eating disorder in the past.

"Ph--kkk yo thigh gap...#latinacurves," she said on Instagram in April.

She had also said in February, "Regardless of what society tells you these days...You don't have to have a thigh gap to be beautiful."
