The Sexist Hashtag #HowToSpotAFeminist Has Totally Backfired & It's Brilliant!

When Conservative radio host Doc Thompson created the hashtag #HowToSpotAFeminist he was unsurprisingly inundated with the stereotypical replies: fat, ugly man haters who refuse to shave their beards. Original. But when feminists decided to chip in? That's when it all got very hilarious. Whad'ya know, we actually have a SOH!

Introducing Doc Thomson AKA first class douche bag and inventor of the hateful #HowToSpotAFeminist hashtag now trending on Twitter.

He could be a lovely guy but then again he is looking for tips on how to spot a person that believes in the social, political and economic equality of the sexes assuming we're unrecognisable without beards and BO. Duh.
