The Tweet has since been deleted, but as evidenced by the reply tweets, people are furious. Personally I thought it was pretty funny.

This isn't sexist, if this is sexist, I want to see huge outrage over cosmopolitan!

[Edrick Smith]

Sounds more like someone didn't realize what they were posting in the photo and were just talking about the laptop. If there's an outcry over this people need a reality check.

Uh, they obviously knew what they were posting. Did you read the tweet?

That said, its a sexUAL tweet, not sexIST.

Yea, I can imagine some of those people complaining at home,

"Honey how do I look in my new dress?"

"You look great!"

"You sexist pig!!!"

[Charisma Veteran]

Haha, what? I'd love that kind of compliment :)

[neo1911]

A lot of people on internet don't have slightest sense of humor :(

Well that's what she's there for. To add beauty and glamour to an otherwise geeky event. I don't see anything wrong with appreciating the female form. If someone said my rear looked good, I'd take it as a complement, not an insult. Talk about overreaction.

[ArialBlue]

So women adding sex appeal to objects such as cars is sexist now?

[Chris123NT]

dat ass :woot: :rofl:

[ANON86364]

If I had the time, I would love to be able to talk to each of the idiots complaining and prove to them how hypocritical they are. I would love to see them stutter around it.

[Aethec]

The comment is sexual, not sexist.

However, having women pose to attract people reduces them to being sexual objects, and that's sexist.

[Mystic Mungis]

What I'm more concerned about is the man to the right of her who is about to throw up!

[IrishEdg3]

Yes because that dress screams "Dont look at my ass!"

And did anyone find out if she was offended? Im sure she took it as a huge compliment!

[Rudy]

They're just appreciating her features...nothing wrong there

[bjoswald]

People are way too uptight and PC (gay too, apparently). It's almost like the population is trying to neuter itself.

[djdanster]

I think it's hilarious! :D

[Miuku.]

Asus++;

[articuno1au]

I think its funny, but not bright doing it on the corporate twitter account..

/shrug

[Richteralan]

yeah human body is shameful....

/s

[Singh400]

Gee, I wonder who is getting all up in arms about it?

[+Warwagon MVC]

She's female, has a nice ass and i'd tap it!!! Why is that sexist!?

[Twiddle]

Lol. I thought it was pretty funny. People need to lighten up, and learn to take a joke.

[Raa]

I approve! :yes:

[SongHyeonDeok]

I don't think it's funny or sexist, just stupid.

I don't see how this could be sexist, she's a model, what are models hired for? Their looks. So don't be suprised when people judge them based upon their looks, or point out how attractive they appear to be.
