Influencer Jessica Fernandez Admits to Mistake After Calling 0ut ‘ Creep’ at the Gym
New York Post ^

Posted on 01/25/2023 11:47:09 AM PST by nickcarraway

Twitch influencer Jessica Fernandez issued an apology Tuesday after she went viral for posting a video about a “feral” man at the gym who she claimed was staring at her “like a piece of meat.”

Fernandez published the apology on TwitLonger — an extension of Twitter that allows users to post tweets longer than 140 characters — calling the video “the most serious thing I have ever posted.”

“First of all, I want to apologize sincerely to the man at the gym where this all started. He didn’t do anything wrong to me and I blew our interaction out of proportion,” wrote Fernandez. “I know many people think that I’m only apologizing because I got called out from the video I posted and this is half right.”

I am not trolling but white men need to act according to higher standards period. It doesn’t matter that our enemies will always lie, steely frigid polite demeanor really disconcerts libs in general and wokes in particular.

She was in her underwear doing pelvic thrusts for “likes.” The guy looked over like “WTF is that idiot doing” then offered to help when the weight fell off the bar. She raised a stink for the show.

And now that guy will probably get fired and harassed because of this stupid mutt who can’t understand normal thinking.

I'm not saying I disagree, but I'm not sure this guy violated that rule. And I don't think your dad meant for a man to be oblivious. If a woman might be taping you, it's warranted to know what's going on.

Also, you need to look at that picture. The woman had matts behind her. Look at where the man is. From where he was, he could see the back of her head, arms and back, but probably not much else of her body.

Leering is not innocent. It is bad behavior and merits rebuke. This is hard to accept in the current unbuttoned public culture but it is a truth. The lady should have stood her ground.

The commonly used term for it back in the "Jim Crow" South was "reckless eyeballing."

And back then, too, only men of a certain, umm, persuasion would be accused of it.

Though today, it seems to apply more to "good looks" than "race."

Regards,

Yes, I agree, Even more surprising that my very Southern father had his attitudes about proper conduct. He said the same thing to me about staring at a huge black woman.

“Women are harassed in gyms, and it needs to stop, but you are not one of them. An act of kindness or a glance does not make you a victim.” reads the caption of Swoll’s video.

There is so much harassment of women that they have to create fake incidents.

‘Not acting like a dog in heat is what a man should have the discipline to do.’

someone was acting like ‘a dog in heat...’? how do you know this; were you there...?

if you were not there, and have no clue whether someone was leering or not, your remarks are nothing more than virtue signalling, and shall be taken as such...

Note, offering to help someone who is idiotically trying to load a barbell while sitting on the floor is now “leering” and “creepy.” Meanwhile, there are white knights who will defend this Only Fans 304.

There’s a similar video making the rounds with that one where some chick calls out a random guy from across the gym who was clearly not staring or leering at her.

I often stare at people in the gym; they do a lot of goofy and dangerous stuff, and I don’t usually wear my glasses there, so I sometimes don’t want to believe what I am seeing. It’s like trying to look away from a train wreck. Granted, it’s a gym with a lot of old people, so it’s a different sort of distraction than young girls craving attention. Years ago, I worked out at a gym where many of the women were strippers. It was weird to spot a girl on bench press who had given me a lap dance a couple of weeks earlier.

Wait, you are talking about white knights defending 304s, but then you say you were a mark for strippers? I guess you got educated.

Well, 30 to 35 years ago, I was more willing to go along with what “the guys” wanted to do on a given night out. I’ve been in a strip club 4 times; twice while in college, twice while in graduate school. Not much of a mark. I don’t think those places are even around anymore. It makes me wonder what NFL players even do to get into trouble these days.

“… especially a man who was obviously physically and socially inferior, than (sic) her comments were correct and restrained. A voluptuously beautiful woman has the right to be what she is and, if she conducts herself appropriately, to demand respect from others.”

Voluptuously beautiful??? Her? Socially inferior?

Just wow.

Agreed. I’ve made it my mission to ruin their videos. Walk in front of them, scratch my balls in the background between sets and do various things to ruin their video.

The lady should have stood her ground.

There is no ground to stand on when you are a narcissistic "social influencer" whose only claim to societal success is being a self proclaimed "social influencer"

And for the record, since when did "social influencer" become a permanent fixture in the English language?
