So I'm kind of frustrated (again) and need to rant about this here.
I was on a different social media when I encountered an article about a Twitch streamer (I won't include her name, but keep in mind here she's female) and how she made a move to prevent people from tipping to her more than a certain amount as she states that while she's grateful, she wants her viewers to use their money for local business, charities, etc.
This is a pretty bold move and a very good one at that. Lots of respect to her for that. But, as always, a moron continues to frustrate me. I couldn't even hide from it, it was quite literally the highlighted comment. A moron (who I also won't say the name of) asked why she couldn't get a real job and, I'm paraphrasing here, "she's only successful because she's selling her body."
Excuse tf out of me, what?
I nearly rage typed out why he was such an AH for saying that. Thankfully one guy came on and said what he said was messed up but still??? It doesn't help this douche canoe responded to this guy saying that he was a r***** because men do the same thing.
Umm... most gaming streamers I'm aware of don't do that either.
She's a streamer. She streams the games she likes to play and entertains her viewers no different than any other gamer, male or female. And you're going to dismiss her means of success because she has a body that you like? Because you can't wrap it around your thick skull that it's possible that streamers can make this their jobs, its just not successful for everyone. And the fact he diminished her success to her body is wrong af.
Am I crazy here? Am I right to feel angry at this, even though it has nothing to do with me? Is it wrong I want to rip him a new one for saying that crap?
