I did not see a thread on this, and google did not show up any results, so here is a thread.

Matt Taylor, rocket scientist, wore a shirt to a meeting that had scantly clad women on it.

Feminist had a field day. In the end Matt apologized.

Man up already. Matt should have told them feminist to piss off.

Kim Kardashian can show her butt to the whole internet, but if a man wears a shirt with clothed women on it, he is labeled a sexist?

Women are sexual objects, always have been, always will be. Don't like it, too bad.
 
When a person steps before the cameras to represent their employer, they are there to represent the image the employer wants to convey. They aren't on their own time. If the European Space Agency wants babe shirts, that's their business, otherwise Dr. Taylor was out of line. In Dr. Taylor's defense, the agency should have had a professional PR person orchestrating this very public event to head off this kind of silliness.

Yes but do we need to wear it on our shirt at work?
This aint a tugboat!

There is a reason why our ancestors carved images of women in ivory tens of thousands of years ago.

There is a reason why men look at womens boobs and butts today.

Femenist can demand men stop treating them as sexual objects. Not going to do any good.
 
OP wants someone to man up,.. by telling him what he should have done - well, that's not being your own man, now is it?

Further more, if those images are indeed not sexist, he can wear what those women are wearing in public next time.

Eh I have as much sympathy for this guy as I do for somebody showing up in court with a "Fcvk the police" T-shirt and gets a contempt of court charge. Use some common sense when dealing with a public situation.

The way you think about women isn't that far removed from cavemen, is it? I bet your love life would be at best a short story if it were ever written about, comprised mostly of guttural sounds and loud grunting.

Regarding the Doc, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that a shirt like that is pretty damned situational and that wasn't the right situation for it. It wasn't only women who were pissed, so were his peers. Judging from how clueless he is, if anything that hit him harder than the public complaints.

The only outrage here was his outrageous ignorance.

Maybe you should read this,

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/a...tes-women-repress-certain-sexual-desires.html

Just about everything the woman "thought" turned her on was actually a turn off.

For women, social constructs get in the way of their true sexual desires.
 
I see it as inappropriate in a professional sense. I think calling it sexist is going too far. Poor taste, yes.
 
What is more inappropriate, in my eyes, is his Cannibal Corpse shirt in the other picture. Is this 1995? Are they even still together?
 
The person who made the shirt was a female, and she was never mentioned in the media outlets because of it. Despite that, he's been harassed because of a fucking shirt. He just landed Rosetta on a comet, something that was extremely difficult to do and took 10 years to do, and SJWs are complaining about a damn shirt.

Man up?

That's rich coming from you, given your history with and attitude towards women and womens issues.

Real men view women as more than just objects.
 
Thank goodness for the feminists, taking care of this obviously dangerous sexual predator. Next step, they'll confront the genocidally misogynist truckers who call waitresses "honey" at truck stops and put an end to their evil ways.
 
Why would he wear that shirt to his place of employment knowing he would also appear on TV? That is just stupid.

To be fair, it was a gift from a female friend that made it for him. I can understand him wearing it for her at an event as important as that. Slippery slope, though.
