Opposition leaders branded Uruguay's interior minister an "exhibitionist" after she posted a photo of herself in the shower on Facebook.
Daisy Tourne posted the snapshot on her profile page with the caption, "there's nothing more natural than a woman in the shower".
The photo shows only Tourne's hands and laughing face beneath running water, according to the El Pais newspaper.
"I think it's in very bad taste that the minister exposes herself so intimately," former Vice President Luis Hierro Lopez told El Pais.
"Ministers have to be more austere, modest - above all the Minister of the Interior, who commands the police force."
Politician Jose Amorin called the photo "frivolous."
Ms Tourne, 57, responded on her page, saying the photo was not made available publicly or intended to be erotic. She said it was taken in a shower used to rinse off sand after a visit to the beach.
Ruling party lawmaker Victor Semproni backed Ms Tourne on her Facebook page, commenting below the picture: "I'm thinking about taking a photo of myself in the shower, but a full body shot."
