Deze Twitteraar gaat viral nadat ze een draadje deelde waarin haar (mannelijke) baas op z’n zachtst gezegd vreemde uitspraken deed over een foto van een vrouw op LinkedIn. In de reacties onder haar tweets delen veel vrouwen eigen ervaringen en dat maakt nogal wat los.
– In samenwerking met The Best Social Jobs –
1. De baas ziet dus een foto en vindt dat vrouwen niet mogen zeuren over hoe ze behandeld worden.

2. Maar er is dus niks vreemds op de foto te zien.
She was a nice looking woman – it was a head and shoulders shot of her wearing a grey t-shirt and smiling at the camera. It was as generic as you could get, which is what LinkedIn likes for profile pictures. I was totally baffled and said "Shit like… what?"

3. Maar de baas vindt de selfie sletterig.
He clicked on it to open it full-size, like he thought I just wasn't seeing it well enough and said "This!"
I said "Taking selfies?"
He said "Taking selfies like THAT."I was still absolutely fucking lost, so I asked him to explain.
He said "Just, like, slutty pictures."

4. Ze snapt nog steeds niet waar de baas het over heeft.
"Slutty" is obviously a dumb af hypermisogynistic construct, but let me repeat – it was a headshot of a woman wearing a gray t-shirt. The only skin on her you could see was her face and collarbones. I was STILL LOST and he was getting annoyed like I was being deliberately dumb

5. Deze opmerking is natuurlijk op alle fronten fout.
I was getting annoyed right back, so I told him to just explain what he meant. He talked for a minute about how if you're going to post pictures like that, you deserve what you get. I was incredulous and reiterated to him that it was literally just a picture of a smiling face.

6. De baas vindt de vrouw dus over de top sexy.
We had this go round for a few minutes – him going come on, you know what I mean, me going no, I literally don't. Eventually, I told him to define the word "slutty". He said "way over the top sexy and obviously down to fuck." I asked him what about that picture said that to him.

7. En dan komt de aap uit de mouw.
After going in circles for about ten minutes he finally goes, "Well, she's insanely hot."
There it was.

8. Doordat hij haar knap vindt, heeft hij ook meteen z’n mening klaar.
This man saw a THUMBNAIL of a picture of an attractive woman, and decided that not only was she a "slut", but that her presumed "behavior" meant she deserved any harassment or assault she experienced – and felt this strongly enough to say it out loud, unprompted, and AT WORK.
— Sawyer (@sswyrs) June 14, 2019
9. Hij is er zelfs van overtuigd dat zij eventuele intimidatie of zelfs ergere gevolgen op zichzelf afroept en dit durft hij ook nog gewoon te zeggen.
A woman has her smiling face on her profile. A man she has never met sees it and instantly feels rage and disgust. He believes she invites and deserves harrassment/assault.
All because she dared to be attractive in a public space.

10. In dit geval zeker.
Men project "sluttiness" on us, and then blame us for it

11. Veel vrouwen krijgen ongepaste berichten op LinkedIn.
This is the headshot I use for both my LinkedIn and employee image at work.
Nothing sexual, right?
I STILL get really really inappropriate comments about it. pic.twitter.com/zugkGAt9Sz— 💗💜💙Foul-Mouthed Engineer💗💜💙 (@Mickey_Marine) June 15, 2019
12. En nee natuurlijk zijn alle mannen zo.
These threads are insanely depressing. So many of them too. Just make me ashamed to be male and want to apologise on behalf of my gender. We're not all like that, but sadly it seems that all too many of us are and it's fucking awful.

13. Als de vrouw op de foto niet gelachen had, dan was dat waarschijnlijk ook niet goed geweest.
Let me guess- she would've been a "stuck-up b!+ch" had she NOT been smiling. #amiright?

14. Ook deze Twitteraar kreeg ooit een vreemd verzoek.
My landlady once told my roommate to tell me to “dress decently” when I go for a walk downstairs in the evening because “she has young sons who look at me”. I was wearing my dad’s XXL shirt which went down to half my thighs, and sweatpants.

15. Laten we inderdaad hopen dat ze dit inderdaad heeft aangegeven bij HR.
He should be fired !! Can you report him to HR?
