Oh boy! Is it hating women time already?

I forgot I moved past the post about Melania Trump and was pretty confused we weren't allowed to have strong, negative feelings against her now. I need to get some sleep.
It's something I come here to avoid.
Doesn't seem to be the point here
I disagree. This is a social media based article, whose only purpose is to be eye-catchingly inflammatory. It's meant to get people arguing. All it's doing is documenting people online fussing with each other. They specifically used this post of a women, because people will more easily hate on a woman than a man. That's just my lived experience, though.
If it wasn't part of the point, the title would just say "guests".
