It is low class -- but hardly offensive.
And if Rachel thinks this is a "cool guy" then....no accounting for taste I guess.
Everything is sexist! Waaaahh!!!
I’ve ceased giving a damn what “most people” think since most people don’t think at all...
The responses to this little whackjob are pretty funny.She is not garnering much support.I wonder why?
And for young women in the world, a shirt covered in hyper-sexualized women does not send a good message, conscious or otherwise.
What kind of message does having your body covered in disturbing tattoos send?

It’s pathetic that with the great feats these scientists were accomplishing, some dumb idiots on Twitter have made a story out of a shirt.
Bread and circuses.
And have any of these constantly offended people noticed what young girls wear these days???
Why don’t they pick on the Rapper’s, black or white? Eminem, a so called Rap Star, just released a song with lyrics saying he would like to beat the singer Lana Del Rey
“Like Ray Rice Did”. (!!!!!) This is what they should be protesting. Don’t pick on some scientist who was having the best day of his life until the FemNazi’s kicked the door in. And yet, many of these same girls don’t get why they are still single, or why no body acts like a gentleman.
Modern women won’t be satisfied until they’ve succeeded in turning every last male into a gelding.
Apologized in a “trembling voice”....what a pansy.
It wasn't really covered in scantily clad women.
It was covered in pictures of scantily clad women.
If he was a homo and the shirt was covered in pictures of scantily clad men the liberals would have been praising him.
But what is that crap all over his arms?
I think that Washington Post writers, whether male or female, should be held to higher standards for the head shots that they use on their Twitter feeds.
Rachel Feltman needs to apologize to the world for the poor standard that she has set. Please, Rachel, there are women and children monitoring Twitter. Why on Earth would you subject them to such an awful photo?
Who the hell cares? He was part of the team that took 10 years to travel to a comet to land on it.
Men aren’t allowed to comment on what women wear because doing so is considered sexist.
So why is it OK for women to comment on what men wear?
What a crock. I cannot say that I have ever felt "unwelcome" in science. I haven't ever counted the PhD scientist women where I work, but I think there are as many of us as there are PhD scientist men.
Who was that guy who was drummed out of some Ivy League school for pointing out that (many) women do not have the temperament for science? And then liberal women bent over backwards whining and generally proving that his statement was right? If there aren't "enough" women in science, one must look at the women--there are no male "gatekeepers" keeping us out!
Okay. I'll get off the soapbox and point out that that shirt *is* incredibly tacky.
My Dad has a really cool shirt with pictures of 60’s Chevelle’s, GTO’s, Cuda’s and other Muscle Cars all over it.
I guess some Global Warming Alarmist’s would be offended by it.
He should not have apologized.
He’s obviously a big anime freak. That shirt and his tattoos are anime characters. If the women freak out about his shirt, what do they have to say about the women who dress up for cosplay conventions? I’d hate to see what the good doctor dresses as, but some of the women at those conventions are really hot.
