Paige Spiranac has pointed out a viral video that demonstrates a sexist double standard and has lashed out at hypocrites and haters.
Spiranak has faced backlash from online trolls who criticize her for wearing revealing outfits and showing too much skin when posing online. The golf star and social media influencer reposted a video of the Savannah Bananas baseball player shirtless dancing on diamonds. She pointed to a female commentator praising the men. “There was not a single comment in this video calling them out as prostitutes or sluts,” Spiranak wrote in her post’s caption.
It’s interesting how different reactions online are when men choose to show off their bodies. There is not a single comment in this video calling them whores or sluts. Now there are many women who say baseball is their favorite sport, and those same women are harshly critical of me. Hypocrisy is… pic.twitter.com/nRy60LbMkR
