GQ is doing its annual ‘Males of the Yr’ back-patting this week — however they’re together with a bunch of girls within the celebration, and it is obtained some individuals — largely males — bent out of form.
The well-known journal is internet hosting two totally different occasions to have a good time their honorees — on Wednesday, they threw a shindig out in London … and are available Thursday, they’re going to do the identical factor right here within the States. For each, it is a star-studded get-together … guys and gals, in truth.
That is what’s obtained some individuals’s panties in a bunch on Twitter — when you go fishing for the outrage, you may discover it … with a very good handful of oldsters asking why there’s such a robust feminine presence in GQ’s highlight of their “males.”
It is a truthful argument, we suppose … reality is, their record of honorees over throughout the pond was made up of loads of girls. Truly, greater than half have been women — out of 20 individuals named for the UK occasion, solely 10 of them have been really dudes … and that is raised some eyebrows.
Among the girls acknowledged as “Males of the Yr” nominees there included … Jasmine Jobson, Mary Earps, Simone Rocha and Bianca Saunders, simply to call just a few. After they run it again on Thursday … Kim Kardashian will undoubtedly be in attendance.
You see … she’s really one of many well-known girls who graced their ‘MOTY’ cowl this yr, and even that call has gotten some pushback. Y’know, seeing the way it’s a males’s magazine.
In fact, GQ has been together with girls of their ‘Males of the Yr’ lineup for years now … so the people who find themselves additional pissy about it in 2023 appear to be in search of one thing to be mad about. There additionally appears to be some misogyny afoot … and perhaps transphobia too.
Keep it up, individuals.
