Buckle your seat belts, ’cause we’re about to time travel to the 19th century, when sexism was still kicking and thriving, and feminism, what feminism?
A Twitter user, Chritina Ross shared screenshots of messages sent by a guy to a woman telling her why exactly he didn’t message her.
In the screenshots, a guy named Luke James addresses a woman named Kimberley.
From blatant body shaming – ‘lose weight’, wear clothes ‘that suit your figure’, to guys like ‘longer hair’ and ‘confident women’ cliches – Luke made sure to not leave out anything.
And, after this, he goes on to add that him not ‘getting a kiss’ on the first date, ‘messed with his ego’.
Then he goes on to chide her for her eating habits, tells her that he ‘doesn’t care about her past and what she has went through’.
The ‘instructions’ to get a second date are sooo sexist that for a minute you think that Luke is being sarcastic or presenting some sort of commentary on the dating scene.
After all this, his audacity is still running high on entitlement that he gives her an ultimatum.
Kimberley, you now have a month to get as far away from this epitome of sexism as possible. Run.
Netizens came together to call out his blatant sexism.
Luke, you did the humankind a favour by ousting yourself. Thank you.
