An article about what turns men off women is getting the scorn it deserves
When we look at some of the things said about women across the media, we wonder whether someone’s made a time machine and taken us back to the 1950s; we’d suspect Farage if we weren’t certain he’d never collaborate with anyone with the expertise to do the job.
The latest piece of misogyny to come to our attention is from The Sun – we know, right – shocker! It was shared on Twitter by writer Felicity Morse.

We’re not sure what’s more eye-watering – this guy’s moronic entitlement or the thought of plucking your nipples. No, wait – it’s the entitlement thing!
Of course, the snippet was received as you’d expect by the good people of Twitter.
Obviously, some people were keen to point out what a dick “Sun man Nirpal” was/is.
Is he trying to neg all women at once? What a tool.

Vaginas after childbirth? What do men expect us to do? Get our abdomen sliced open unnecessarily just so our vaginas aren't ruined?
But I bet he considers large scars a turn off too! What a vile article.— talia (@talia_sparkle) April 10, 2019
"Girls with hairy nipples should pluck," said the guy who'd ostensibly shriek bloody goddamn MURDER, were a single one of his offensive eyebrow hairs to be plucked.
Fuck this dude and anyone that thinks like him. https://t.co/X2sP6UvcHU

"tyrannical"
Anyone who doesn't do with their body what I want is a tyrant.

Others focussed on the fierce attributes of the woman mentioned in the piece.
I’ve got hairy tits. Deal with it. HAHAHAHAHAHA her attitude is mint.

Hairy and tyrannical. Too long for vanity plates, so put it in my tombstone.

These perfectly combined the two positions.
“We’d probably be together now” – dude, she seems awesome and you’re a judgmental tool who thinks hair should be accompanied by shame and apologies, she surely would have dumped you by now.

Woman shrugs and tells man to accept her the way she is. Is called tyrannical. This dude shouldn't date.

A couple dived down the fetid rabbit hole of the article.

Paging @DavidFutrelle this is right up your alley.
"Facts" from this article
– men invented football in order to avoid women
– marrying a woman instantly renders her unfuckable
– witnessing childbirth permanently destroys men's libidos https://t.co/h6Wg5K6o26 https://t.co/sT3IMqz0lM— Nate (@NathanOfOz) April 10, 2019
Felicity followed up her tweet with some thoughts of her own on what was wrong with it, including these:
Being mockingly critical of someone’s body hair, someone’s commitment to you, or someone’s willingness to share their body in order to give birth to another human being, is really just the pits.

Do not date anyone who is inadequately adapted to the reality of human bodies. It doesn’t bode well for their ability to be honest with themselves about reality.

And we can’t honestly say this surprised us, but we wish it had –
His response to me asking why he wrote it was to ask me out for a drink and then tell me writing a piece like this was a good way to get dates ‘although obviously not in this instance’
