Fuck feminism, yay equal rights, this is not equality

@freemo personally I wouldn’t wear such a shirt at such a special event. It would feel objectifying to me.

However, as an individual I respect his choice to wear this shirt when he wanted as he saw fit and it’s actually not big of a deal since this is not even something like hate speech. Harassment is definitely not okay.

@louisrcouture Cosnidering the women arent in sexual poses I wouldnt consider it objectifying personally.

I find it best to flip these things around to get perspective. If a woman wore a shirt with a handsom person on it, say the rock, in various non-sexual poses like flexing his muscles, would that be objectifying or inappropriate? I don't feel it would.

@freemo they are dressed in kind of a sexual, way though.

But my understanding of social norms would make me think that a women wearing sexy guys on a shirt taking a picture in front of a big public after you made a breakthrough discovery wouldn’t be something that neurotypicals would find appropriate.

@louisrcouture this wasnt a photoshoot. This was a picture of him int he background cheering at his desk as he does his job.
