This. This so much.

Audihoe · 2014-11-15T14:28:46+00:00

This is so fucking stupid. "This is why there aren't women in the field", no its not, this is just a guy who's comfortable in his (pretty awesome imo) style. And no one "saw fit to stop him from presenting"? no shit, they were more concerned with what they just accomplished, who would have imagined someone getting mad over this\

edit: wow this turned into something

Hi. This post was from /r/TumblrInAction . I wasn't aware of what a x-post was until today. All the credit goes too /u/Gazzam from that sub. I just thought that people from this sub would like too see it.

Finding out that shirt was personally designed for him, that's awesome. He chose to place that in the spotlight as a thank you for what that meant to him.

Now think what these fem-nazis did to the woman that designed this search? How devastated do you think she was made to feel about her work being ripped apart by women and then making her friend who she gave her hand crafted gift, cry. Cry, cry for wearing her gift.

emceegyver · 2014-11-15T16:27:59+00:00

You know, sometimes it can be appropriate to blame the victim for something they wore and sometimes it isn't.

"You were raped because you wore a short skirt" is not the same thing as "People were offended because they think your shirt is sexist."

Regardless of whether or not you think the shirt actually was sexist (it made me roll my eyes, but that's about it) is not the point. If I wore a shirt that said "FUCK NIGGERS" on it, and got yelled at, do you really think that's a victim-blaming issue?

If I wore a cute dress and got raped, can you see how that's a little different? Can we at least find that common ground?

Portugeezer · 2014-11-15T15:26:22+00:00

I know you all can tell me what one of the biggest stories talked about this week has been. Kim Kardashian.

People are angered by this shirt situation that features half naked cartoon girls, when Kim has been praised in the media for her full/almost full nude exposé.

Now, I've got no problem with Kim Kardashian, my point is basically hypocrisy and double standards. It seems like in the list of news it goes Kim, Shirt, Rosetta landing.

Marleyyy · 2014-11-15T16:11:02+00:00

I find it interesting that everyone is offended by this. This is the type of shit that women in the public eye have to deal with all the time. The media spends more time on what women are wearing and how they have their hair done than the message they are bringing. This guy wore an incredibly loud shirt to an event that would be viewed by a lot of people. Of COURSE people are going to mention the shirt - some will like it because he is not a stereotypical rocket scientist at all, while others will find it vulgar and crass for an event that should have full emphasis on the accomplishments at hand. I'm sure this guy was aware that people would notice his shirt, even hoped that they would as it has sentimental value to him.

HappyMeerkat · 2014-11-15T16:13:52+00:00

i am all for fighting double standards, but comparing this to rape just doesn't fly. compare it to the reaction a woman would get wearing a shirt covered by sexy half-naked cartoon guys to a professional event. maybe the response to the woman would be less extreme, in which case a double standard would apply.

what he wore was tacky and inappropriate for the occasion. downvote all you want, that is a simple fact. it doesn't mean he is an asshole. it doesn't mean he didn't accomplish something absolutely mind-blowingly amazing. it doesn't mean he deserves to be verbally abused. it just means he made a terrible wardrobe decision, and some sort of reaction should have been expected. try wearing a shirt like that to a business meeting. man or woman, you won't get a good reaction no matter how talented you are.

Hanshen · 2014-11-15T17:37:41+00:00

Don't get me wrong. This isn't a shirt I would wear for a major announcement, but that said look at the dude. The shirt clearly fits his image well and wasn't intended as a sexist gesture. I think it's far more impressive that you don't have to fit the stuffy old image of wearing tweed blazers with elbow patches to be involved in cutting edge science! If anything he's a champion of access to the sciences, and a funny guy, who cares if he's wearing an edgy shirt. Christ almighty feminism, grow up.

rmaap1 · 2014-11-15T16:49:45+00:00

No I don't think it sounds awfully familiar.

I think the criticism of his shirt is ridiculous.

But criticizing someone's shirt vs raping someone for dressing provocatively is really not the same thing.

Polkadot1017 · 2014-11-15T16:44:09+00:00

You can't compare rape to a scientist getting reprimanded for wearing a shirt.

bilauta · 2014-11-15T16:41:53+00:00

Can't even deal with the sheer overreaction to this and every other thing that people pick apart because they have way too much time on their hands. I self identify as a true feminist every single day (meaning I believe in equality for all genders because THAT'S ALL FEMINISM IS SUPPOSED TO BE) and yet had I watched this scientists interview, his shirt wouldn't have even entered my radar.... I would have been more concerned with what he was saying. I'd look at this guy as evidence that all different types of people are ACCEPTED into science and not as a reason as to why women aren't comfortable entering the field.

This is the puffy shirt all over again.

846513 · 2014-11-15T16:41:10+00:00

Are you saying he deserved it because of what he was wearing?

This is misrepresenting the context of when people say "you deserved it."

People often use that to blame women when they are harassed, because what the woman was wearing shows some of her skin that whoever judged to be 'too much' and therefore she's inviting harassment. It's about shaming women for how they show their bodies to the world.

This guy wore a shirt that some people see as objectifying women. The 2nd poster isn't saying he deserved it because of how he shows his body to the world, but because of the subject matter on the shirt.

If his shirt said "nazis rule, hitler did nothing wrong" then no one would argue against outrage. He would certainly deserve any ill will of approving of the nazis.

So the actual issue is here -- is his shirt objectifying of women? People have been arguing about 'sexy' images of women being objectifying or empowering for 30-40 years now with no real consensus.. even among feminists.

ooga_chaka · 2014-11-15T18:28:49+00:00

Just posted this, word for word, on Facebook.

Factoid of the day. I was doing some calculations about the craziness of the Rosetta / Philae mission, and I came up with the following statistic. So, if we're talking about a tiny tiny bullet here, like about the size of a speck of dust small, the chances of hitting the comet is like hitting 3 grains of rice somehow joined together from 528 feet away, a quarter mile. Or about the length of a football field and a half. But that's not all. You're not sure where the rice on this football field actually will be, and you have to fire the speck of dust 10 years in advance, but by that time the rice could be anywhere in an area the size of 2 Manhattan Islands. And this guy, a great scientist who worked for years on this project, is getting ripped a new one because he wore a bad shirt. I guarantee you that the people complaining about this do not have any idea of the complexity of this mission. There's a tendency among famous mathematicians and physicists, such as Archimedes, Newton, Nash, Erdos, and others, to not give a fuck about their appearance because they're too engrossed in their work. Let's not get pissed off at him because he wore a "demeaning" shirt one day that his female friend made for him. Let's focus on the amazing work he did when working on this project.

phatstacks · 2014-11-15T15:42:19+00:00

Dude that shirt is fricking awesome. If I were him I would not have apologized publicly. I would have said "u dont like my shirt eh? U should see my thong"

I agree, feminism double standards, and all that, and everything else in this thread.

However, I must disagree with wearing something that unprofessional to such a huge event. That dude is awesome for what he accomplished, but come on man! You don't go to give a speech wearing a shirt like that and expect people to ignore it. It's just common sense. In a casual environment, that is one cool shirt. When it's business time, dress the part so people focus on what you say over how you look.

yo! stupid ass feminists! you probably can barely help yourselves, but the comparison isn't about sexual assault or rape. It's about being judged by your choice of attire.

clickwhistle · 2014-11-15T18:13:14+00:00

GAMEchief · 2014-11-16T00:03:23+00:00

"She deserved it because of what she was wearing" is often used to justify rape. Can we not equate this dude's treatment to rape? I'd rather someone actually take the discussion seriously.

Ashken · 2014-11-15T15:33:04+00:00

The man accomplished a daring feat that had never been done before? I say let him wear what he wants. Hell, he was probably just trying to be a bit comfortable from all that work getting a fucking probe on a comet. Obviously these women don't see the grandeur of that, or simply don't care. It's a shame they brought him to tears. I would have defended the shit out of him.

Edit: [http://i.imgur.com/FaB9HjX.jpg](Here's the shirt for anyone wondering.) That shit looks fucking Badass! I want one now. I'd flaunt that shit in a feminist's face if they stepped to me. It looks like that shirt took a lot of effort and it's really artistic.

If they have such a big deal about women being objectified why don't they make some shirts with men on it? They could then walk around and wear it, and see that we don't give two shits, and maybe they'll get an idea about our perspective. Not sure if that would level the field at all, but still, it's not that big of a deal, especially in 2014.

This is one reason why I hate "professionalism". I don't think anybody should be reprimanded just for some fucking clothes. That's completely superficial. If the man has enough brain capacity to stand on one of the forefronts of intergalactic research, giving him a hand amongst others who are proactively helping humanity move forward each and every day, why does he also have to adhere to a fucking uniform whenever he wants to deal with it? It's not like this shirt nullifies the fact he helped make history. I wouldn't care if it was covered in swastikas.

j1mcamp · 2014-11-15T18:10:23+00:00

If you can't see the difference between people giving him grief about what he was wearing, and people saying a woman got raped because of what she was wearing, then I can't explain it to you.

Speaking of SJWs not entering the STEM fields:

What caused Social Justice Warrior-ism.

/u/nixonrichard

Baby boomers with cash and authority but little wisdom forcing their children to go to college without any real identifiable desired outcome resulting in the growth of degree fields with little marketable value. The first wave of graduates became tenured professors in these same fields and quickly occupied all available academic positions. These fields continued to grow, however, with no identifiable occupational placement leading to angry and frustrated graduates who parlayed their newly found knowledge of historical injustice to apply to their own personal misfortune, and began to jointly develop a worldview where even the minutia of one's life is obstructed and degraded by deep and powerful social forces. This created a social Satan -- a mythical creature upon which misfortune may be blamed, and a convenient pretext for burning anyone suspected of worshiping this new Satan.

The Satan-of-the-Day made the mistake of wearing a shirt made by a woman. He was excoriated for his attire (irony alert), and crucified because he's a man. Pure and simple. Had a woman wore a similar print nothing would have been said by SJWs.

WTFppl · 2014-11-15T21:49:55+00:00

I don't get it; why would a prominent engineer care about what a group of culturally opinionated people think? How does what a group of feminist have to say have anything to do with his future as an engineer?

At least #shirtstorm has got people seeing what Feminism is in the mainstream media. Now they all see them as violent, callous knee-jerk reactionaries who are inconsistent and hypocritical.

One of his friends tried to speak to a crowd to APOLOGIZE FOR HIM - even though he shouldn't be since he has nothing about which to be sorry - and some PoC Feminazi attacked him and the crowed cheered for it. They claim that Matt was sexually assaulting people just by wearing a shirt, then a mob enables a man to actually be physically attacked.

Fucking females. All of them.

ApoChaos · 2014-11-15T17:14:28+00:00

Criticising a professional's clothing choice at a significant event is not the same as scrutinising the clothes of a sexual assault victim. That comparison equates people tweeting about what they feel is an inappropriate choice with sexual assault. The fact that you think this is a strong comparison speaks only to how fucking absurd your reasoning is. These are not comparable instances on which you can apply the exact same reasoning; the fact that that even needs to be said is ridiculous.

baskandpurr · 2014-11-15T18:25:25+00:00

I wonder what feminists make of the recent images of KK's arse. Is she objectifying women? Did she deserve abuse for that?

The answer will be that KK is choosing to do that. It's OK for women to use their nudity to celebrate the female form and gain attention but its not OK for men to do the same. Because sexual equality requires that you treat each sex in a different way, according to modern feminsm.

Savipalooza · 2014-11-15T20:32:00+00:00

That retort should only be used as a joke, not a serious argument, for hopefully obvious reasons. To use a more extreme example, imagine someone walking down the street wearing a shirt that said, "I hate [racial slur]." In that situation, I imagine many of you would say something to the effect of, "He deserves whatever he gets for wearing that." There are times when looking a certain way or displaying a certain message, whether on purpose or not, warrants a certain response. However, this concept is not equivalent to the notion that rape is an appropriate response to someone who dresses attractively.

mindscrambler26 · 2014-11-15T21:02:03+00:00

I think he's a damn idiot to have a shirt on like that in a situation like that. It's fucking stupid, seriously. It's not just some random shit, and anyone who says it is is either straight up lying, attempting to cater to the masses here, or attempting to be PC in some way. He looks ridiculous.

Now, if you want to talk about if he deserves or should have been treated like he was, no, obviously not. I would expect his colleges to be annoyed or upset that he wore a ridiculous shirt, but people have no right to treat him like shit or act as though he's done something wrong to the public...

SargentMcGreger · 2014-11-15T23:36:26+00:00

The shirt was designed and given to him by a female friend. He wore it likely because he not only liked it but wanted to support said friend. Being harassed and treated like a sub-human by this feminist group, what they've done, does this not classify as...bullying?

The sci fi women on the shirt were the best part of it.

Otherwise it looked some old 70's pimp shirts i bring out on halloween.

I think he was trying to be the next space "mohawk guy".

Still he will sort of be that because we will remember him more than any other person on that team.

Hey, remember what having lesbian porn pictures published in penthouse did for the only miss america we all remember - Vanessa Williams.

Me thinks he will be the only one with a tv career in 5yrs.

sledgetooth · 2014-11-16T10:14:57+00:00

It was said in another thread, but the scientist Matt Taylor is known for his zany outfits, and has come to be recognized for his fashion as he is less of the rigid archetype we paint most scientists as.

He probably just got noticed for his wacky outfits and rolled with it, like Bruno Carlucci

I was mostly blown away that he didn't have some twitter statement or an apology issued or something. I don't really know what happens in these situations.

He was being asked a question about their project in a private setting on camera and when it came time for him to answer, he suddenly derailed to his apology.

Here is Matt in a Cannibal Corpse T-shirt

Here is Matt in a Hawaiian shirt

Here is Matt in the T-shirt that Zach Galifianakis wore in The Hangover (ps. see The Sopranos poster? Have you ever seen a tv series promote so much patriarchy?/s)

:D

(all 4 of these, one Google search of his name+scientist, common clothing)

Now here we see Matt sporting a one tone long sleeve. He is broken down in a room of his colleagues over something irrelevant to the subject at hand. Here is the accomplished scientist during HIS day.

I have to imagine that a lot of these scientists don't have their ear to the feminist pavement. It doesn't mean they wouldn't be sensitive to your issues, could you bring them up in a more professional or considerate manner. Must one be humiliated for justice to be had? How far did this really need to go?

The part that really drives it home is that he immediately understood the implications of his actions. Is he inherently wrong for wearing what he wore? No. It's what some consider artwork so get over yourself, maybe the woman who made it saw her characters as female empowerment through a comicbook forum (and Thor is sexy, right?).

However, he (more humble than I) immediately felt empathy and understanding to how some people might feel upset about his choice. Here is a man who would be totally receptive to someone merely pointing out to him what they find so troubling. His words during his apology were "I made a big mistake... I am very sorry about this." What he did wasn't even wrong, but he knew how upset he had made some people out there. Ironically, I think his humble apology fits the persona of someone empathetic enough to the changes in society that necessitate gender unity or the better understanding of one another.

If we're all in it for equality, shouldn't we at least be considerate of peoples feelings? You have an opportunity to inform and maybe teach someone of social change, and you approach it with burning pitchforks.

Feminism has its own agenda. It isn't about equality, at least not right here and now. They need criticism or they are doomed to repeat some mistakes they fight against.

The issue is not one of feminism but of lack of good taste. Every great event deserves to be treated with respect. The shirt was a distraction from the focus. That scientist showed poor judgment by wearing something that would pull focus away from the comet landing and from the team effort and toward himself and his shirt.

slideforlife · 2014-11-15T17:17:34+00:00

Haha. Did this get deleted?

Feminism is for dunces

Curious_Swede · 2014-11-15T23:52:24+00:00

Meh. Those feminists can go fuck themselves. This man shouldn't have given them an apology.

Feminists are more offendive than the shirt hr wore. Tacky, yes. Awsome? Of fucking course. He also landed a little sattelite on a fast tiny rock far off in space. Any issues the feminists are trying to solve, pales in comparizion to his feat.

Self-contradictions? From feminists? I'm shocked!

EVSnowden · 2014-11-15T16:25:26+00:00

OH MAN HOW DID JACKIE ROBINSON BREAK THE COLOR BARRIER IF A SHIRT WITH GIRLS ON IT KEEPS WOMEN OUT OF ROCKET SCIENCE?

IT'S FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE MAN.

ISIS continues to murder thousands of people but OH MY GOD did you see that horrible shirt!?!?

steveendermann · 2014-11-15T16:53:14+00:00

Hey! It is the man who played one of the biggest parts in Humanity's greatest achievement! Let us forget about what he did for us and attack him because of his shirt! That is a great idea!

Makes me SICK!

repux · 2014-11-15T20:02:34+00:00

Oh you mean feminazies are rational beings? Well darn me, today I learned something new.

Thehulk666 · 2014-11-16T04:40:30+00:00

He backed down like a coward.

Malevolencea · 2014-11-15T16:34:40+00:00

I love the last line. But unfortunately the tone deaf and selectively blind feminists won't get it.

The only difference is that this man was indeed representing his team. The women in the street wearing provocative clothing are only representing themselves and therefore only make the choice for themselves.

XJ-0461 · 2014-11-15T18:14:02+00:00

This is why people MR as stupid because this argument is stupid. There is n one you can seriously day this is an appropriate shirt.

UserM16 · 2014-11-15T16:19:58+00:00

If by chance he had worn another shirt and it had minutely caused a mental paradigm shift in his thought process that developed into a cumulative decision in mishandling the landing causing a failed mission, no one would've been mad about his shirt. He would've cried anyway. These feminists had all the bases belong to them.

unique3 · 2014-11-15T16:57:49+00:00

What did you say about potatoes?

-tink · 2014-11-15T14:39:26+00:00

I don't really think this falls into the exact same category as the rape thing but I do understand what they are getting at.

I guess you could say it's another way of one sex telling another what they can and can't wear but they never said he was "asking for it" or anything. If anyone can explain a little batter that would be cool.

Edit: wow Fuck you guys. I try to start a discussion and you down vote me and contribute nothing whatsoever. Good job echo-chambering yourselves even more effectively than tumblr.

ArgonGryphon · 2014-11-15T16:50:42+00:00

I don't really think it's...I hesitate to say appropriate, but...idk at least put the half naked chicks in space, or something. It's an odd choice for the occasion. But in no way was I offended by it. I thought it was pretty funny. Just typical butthurt tumblr "feminists"
