He also said “67P is sexy but she’s not easy” to the female ESA talking host right before lander separation from Rosetta while wearing that abomination of a shirt. Not sure why the sh&%storm didn’t start right then.

If a woman made the shirt, not sure how it would be misogynist. No, he shouldn’t have worn it, I guess, but only because it was too causal.

He really said that. I watched it live on the ESA feed.
[quote]Then at some point Wednesday, Taylor swapped out the colorful shirt for this plain black number[/quote]I know this is nitpicking, but did he swap it out? He is clearly wearing a black collared shirt under it in the earlier pictures. It looks like he just took it off.

I thought the shirt was supposed to be intentionally in bad taste. You know, for the same reason I love Hello Kitty and leopard print. I mean, look at it.

Or why people hate liberals. This is a big to do over nothing. Honestly so pathetic.
Be a woman and be proud of your body. Showing it off is not objectification.
Stupid stupid stupid.

Jesus, some people really need a better hobby than playing SJW on Twitter with every little that bugs them. Also, news flash, hashtag activism hasn’t, and wont’, solve a fucking thing except to solidify their own sense of moral superiority. Chris they landed a fucking spaceship on comet and complain about the guys shirt? Maybe it’s that casual overreaction and alarmism that scares women into staying out of scientific fields, not some guy wearing a tasteless shirt his lady friend gave.

Maybe its his good luck shirt. People in a tizzy over it, calling it misogyny should STFU. I’d like to buy one and wear it just to throw it in their faces.

So this dude was part of a team that landed a probe on a FUCKING comet, and this is what people are talking about?
Chill the fuck out.

The worst of it does accomplish something, in that it gives the right a strawman to run against.

Shirt is a bit tacky I admit.
Give me a break. Why not just accuse him of being a rapist as well, since his shirt tells us everything that’s in his head.

The shirt was not a good choice while on the job, but: COMET; and let’s get the world to “reasonably good” before we set our sights on “damn good”.
