Support and honour for the accomplishments of Matt Taylor

As a member of another forum put it ... "Those who feel offended by that shirt should be told to iron it."

Dr Taylor, I remember the Apollo missions. You and your team stand alongside them. Thank you for all you have done, and will do in the future to further our understanding of the cosmos. If your friend wants to sell those shirts to help fund your work, I will buy one, Sincerely, woman, wife, mother, grandmother.

Those women in fact insult your right to do whatever you want , so fuck them

Dude, what you did is AMAZING. As a woman, I also think your shirt is AMAZING. On the other hand, the way this feminism sh!t is going is offending me as a woman. Who do I complain about that to? Or is it now Fem-ception? I'm confused. Regardles... Congrats on your achievement and seriously forget those people causing problems over a shirt.

might want to link to this indiegogo for those that wish to contribute in gifting dr. taylor a kickass astronomical watch to show their support. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/matt-taylor-rosetta-project-scientist they link you here in case you want to show your support but cant donate, its only logical this page does the same

Sticks and stones Matt. As a budding female scientist, I'd just like to say that I hope, one day, to make such a great achievement that thrusts me into an inevitable unwanted spotlight. If that happens, I'd like to borrow your shirt! Awesome tattoos by the way. I was worried about following my chosen career path because of my forearm ink, but you've inspired me. :) P.s. Some feminists are less about sex equality and more like male oppressionists.

Because of this foolish backward bigotry, I will wear shirts like the ones Matt Taylor has worn the day he was spat on the face by the bigots of our generation, jealous of the success of man who made history. I bet if he was an ordinary blue collar worker, he would not have been treated this brutally, and they accuse us men of being "intimidated" by strong and succesful women? Psshh, The third wave is riddled not only of bigotry but also of hypocrisy and pseudo-intellectualism. Andrea Dworkin's hellspawn is what I call it.

Dr. Taylor, You and your team have pushed back the frontier of science, and are expanding our understanding of the universe we inhabit. Yourself and the team you are part of stand on the shoulders of giants, and for generations of scientists to come, you will be those giants. History will remember nothing of your outfit, and all of the accomplishment, and no one can take that from you. Continue to be your own person.

I don't care if he was wearing a maids costume when he made his huge achievement. That man is absolutely brilliant. Dr. Taylor deserves admiration for what he did. It's a sad day for science when someone is judged for what they wore instead of their great accomplishments.

I could just say that he could have dressed better for the event, but what those retarded monkeys did is unacceptable. Looking at him crying during his apologies was heart-breaking and sad. This man got all my respect for his scientific accomplishments and all of my wishes for continuing in his awesome accademic career. The ones that made such a fuss about his shirt over the first landing on a comet in the whole human history, got all my hate. I wish people like those would read and actually use their brains, because their foolish actions can bring much suffering to the others. In the meanwhile, I wish them as much suffering as they cause, till they learn to use logic.

Полностью солидарен с Мэттом и большинством отписавшихся здесь. Толпа оголтелых недотраханных маток не должна нападать на человека, тем более прославившегося на весь мир учёного. Эти закомлексованные бабы, обделенные и красотой и иннтелектом не обратили внимания на лютый пипец от Femen с крестами, который оскорбляет как верующих, так и самих женщин, но они набросились, как шакалы, на учёного мирового уровня, прославившегося шикарно выполненным проектом. Эти путаны ненужны этому миру. С вами портал Пикабу!

Don't forget you can share the link around guys! Lets give the big fella a digital hug of warmth. And possibly send him a new sexier shirt.

Dear Dr. Taylor, I have recently discovered that I am not a smart man given that I tried to add this entire message (discussion) to my signature in the form of a comment. However, my stupidity in this respect is beside the point as I have come here to deal with a far greater and most insidious form of stupidity - modern feminism. As I have neither the time nor ability to exhaustively demonstrate the failings and critical ideological flaws of the feminist movement, I will limit this 'discussion' to point out why feminists and the feminist movement in its entirety have their heads up their asses with in regards to the general accusations made against you. I'm sure you've heard enough about "how you're sexually objectifying women," you "misogynist pig." Now, let me explain the critical flaw of the "sexual objectification theory" (not a theory but I'm being polite). Like all feminist ideals, goals and policies, the process of sexual objectification is at the root of feminist ideology in the social realm of existence, and like all of them, it's entangled and interconnected with all others in the incoherent ball of mess reminiscent of female cognition. With that said, I must warn you that you will not leave this without (at least) a major degree of confusion but I will add supplementary sources if possible to substantiate what would later appear to be unsubstantiated claims. Finally, I will prove to you somewhere along the way, that feminism is a gyno-centric ideology and has nothing to do with gender equality (which is to assume that inequality on the level of gender exists in the first place) Now, the sexual objectification of women is not a new phenomenon and it's hard to say that it isn't one at all - that's not the center of the debate. The debate concerns the impact of sexual objectification on women - whether it is the cause of any asserted effect or if it carries the negative connotation that feminist leaders and drones claim that it does. In the name

At The Verge, Christ Plante and Arielle Duhaime-Ross write that the appearance of the shirt "reminded us how much progress remains to be accomplished back on Earth." In a way, they are right. The fact that some people find the shirt more interesting and important than the fact that a number of human beings (including the man wearing the shirt) just landed a spaceship on a comet establishes that a lot of us haven't yet evolved to the state of possessing anything resembling a rational set of priorities.

Dear Matt, Sorry for the so-called feminists who b*tched about your outfit. This is not how I see feminism. Also, please, next time (also applicable to all the people out there being constantly scapegoated): please do not appologise when you have done nothing wrong just because some touchy bunch of morons thinks you should! And thanks to you and to your team(s) for your awesome work! Cheers, JSG

The work you have accomplished for the science community is greater than anything the bullies who spoke against you will ever achieve. Its a bold statement but, Matt Taylor is not a name i will remember because of fashion, but because you have landed among the stars. Your legacy will be carried through the galaxy. Not many human beings can brag that.

As a woman I am ashamed that this happened those people should be ashamed of themselves ! What you have done is monumental and a great step forward for humanity. The Internet cares too much about how people dress and how they spell rather their achivements. But at least as this forum (or whatever it's called I'm not sure :) ) shows people are also capable of great kindness and only a minority spoil it. Hope you feel better and keep doing what your doing

As a woman who has worked all her career in science and a feminist I want to say 'well done Matt Taylor and all the team of men and women who contributed to the great achievement' and 'Love the shirt, I'd be very happy for my husband to wear it'

Hi Matt, I'm sorry that one of your proudest moments was taken over by your shirt! Your shirt is great! I believe in gender equality and what that reporter did, prevents gender equality from being taken seriously. They're not feminists, they're missing the point and spoiling it for the rest of us. Be proud of your accomplishment and I hope when you look back at this time, you feel joy instead of despair over some people who in mine and I'm sure many peoples opinions need to lighten up!

I'm not offended by his shirt. I'm too busy worrying about women being physically and mentally tortured for truly non-offensive things. Such as not being able to drive, walk in public without a male relative present, or daring to leave an abusive relationship (and subsequently tortured and killed...by her own family).
