Twitter Outrage! Man 'Disgusted' By Woman Smoking On Train Gets Slammed

Twitter is known for being a platform where people come together, regardless of how different they are. However, one man irked many people on the platform after he thought it was a good idea to post a picture taken without the consent of an individual and shame them.??

In the now-viral post, Twitter user CJ Bhau uploaded an image of a woman smoking a cigarette while sitting down at a train’s entrance gate. From the looks of the image, it was apparent that the woman being photographed wasn’t aware of the man clicking her picture.

Over violating her space, the user went on to write in his caption, “Saw this woman smoking by the train gate, and felt disgusted and disappointed with these so-called modern women. Where are we heading with this? Pity.”

The Post Quickly Went Viral And Gained Over A Million Views

Obviously, people on Twitter had thoughts on the man’s unprovoked smear campaign. The post quickly gained traction and garnered over a million views on the platform.

People were unpleased with the man using the woman’s photo without her consent. One user complained: “@IRCTCofficial violation of section 167, Railways Act, 1989. Please take action.”

While one was upset with the man’s outright misogynist take, “Where we are heading is dependent on people like you being a little more open in your thinking and realising that it’s a free world. Would you have taken picture of a man doing the same?? Why not ?”

Another chimed in, “I must have seen more than 500 boys , uncles doing the same thing ! I feel pity for them too.”

One fellow went a little further and berated the man, “What a creep, clicking people's pictures without their consent. You should first be disgusted by and disappointed in yourself.”

While another corrected his statement, “Worried about her lungs? I don't see any other reason why u shld feel disgusted and disappointed!”
