Everyone loves model and Twitterite Chrissy Teigen.

She’s John Legend’s wife and loved and adored by everyone. She’s known for her very simple replies to random Twitters and her recent one was about a guy who told women to “stop fucking crying” about stretchmarks and periods.

It all started because of an article by Allure about an artist that turned insecurities into something pretty.

And someone mocked them for it.

He also made a lot of women angry with his caption. He mocked the idea, parodying his acne with periods and stretchmarks.

Stop fucking crying. I have acne.. is there an artist who can paint my face so I don't feel bad about myself? 😢😢😢😢😢

Chrissy Teigen very subtly bodyshamed him about his acne.

And people further showed up, mocking him, and shaming him.

Has he tried concealer!? 🤔

Let’s go after what’s true here, and that’s the fact that he’s an asshole.

I don’t think painting buttholes is a good idea.

also you could probably find a nice artist to paint your face if you weren't such an asshole

Some, however, were captivated by the idea of period stain art. Not always in a good way.

Wait… period stains too?

Uh. Okay. 🤐

They’re fair questions, honestly.

Right? What does that even mean lol how do you turn period stains into art 😒

But others… Not so much.

Wait, it causes permanent stains on a woman's skin? I've never heard this in my life and am afraid to google

Honestly, the guy was an asshole. But I also think Chrissy Tiegen wasn’t in the clear by doing exactly what the asshole did. It makes you no better than him.

What do you think?
