Sorry Not Beautiful: 1 Out of 10,000 Men Crying Over Diverse Women on SI Swimsuit Issue

Jordan Peterson & Men’s Rights Advocates Can’t Handle Diversity

All my life I’ve heard men like Jordan Peterson lecture me on what I should look like, what I should wear, how I should act, and how much or little makeup I should wear.

These are the chaps who’d message me via online dating asking for full body shots.

Was my weight “proportional” to my height? If so, maybe they’d meet me for a coffee date: if I was lucky.

That’s a hard left pass gentlemen. I’ve been polite to you for 60 years and I am done. Looks like so are hundreds of millions of others.

Jordan Peterson didn’t like plus-sized model Yumi Nu being one of Sports Illustrated’s four swimsuit issue covers this year. The others are Kim Kardashian, Ciara, and Maye Musk. Maye is 74 years old. I am stunned that Peterson wouldn’t have also said something about her cover as well, since she has white hair and is not heavily photoshopped to distort her appearance to fit his “taste.”
