Katy Stoll had no clue what type of Twitter storm she was starting. Stoll is a podcaster, writer, producer and actor and she recently tweeted out an image that she thought was innocent enough.

It was a picture of herself and she was wearing a shirt with the phrase, “The Past Is Male.” It’s safe to say her followers weren’t a huge fan of it.

They thought that she was suggesting that people forget all of the contributions from males and only go forward with women’s accomplishments.
After she posted the image as her profile photo, some people responded harshly to her intentions:
You know someone isn’t striving for equality when they’re wearing a shirt stating ‘The past is male’.

The past is male? Isn't that sexist? I'm offended by your profile picture. That statement is offensively sexist.

Funny her shirt says “ the past is male” I guess daddy issues.. dies she realize we can’t reproduce without men? I’ll never understand the hatred of men with these feminist! I guess they feel inferior and weak . I’ve never felt that! My dad was an amazing man!

These are obviously not the intentions of Katy at all, but merely the opposite but it seems that these boneheads couldn’t get the picture so she had to explain it out for them.
After a few of these tweets she responded to the bulk of the claims with:
“Some of your sensitive souls are concerned about my shirt! Allow me to explain.
‘The Past is Male’ doesn’t mean I hate men, it means the past was a sexist patriarchy & the future is about equality.
It’s more inclusive than the ‘future is female’ and also funny. Hope that helps!”

It was annoying that Katy had to mansplain her point that didn’t need any explanation at all. Others responded positively and understood the underlying issue.
As a white man I can confirm I am not offended and love your shirt 👍

I get it. I like it. Anyone who has a problem with it is revealing a lot about themselves and their expectation of preferential treatment.

It's sad that you have to explain this at all. But I'm sure there were lots of men whose widdle feelies got hurt (and I say this as a man, but one with no fucks left to give for male fragility.) To the future! 👏🏻🍸🚀🔜

I am threatened by your logic and candor! Oh, wait. No I’m not. Never mind.

I love your shirt, and I'm male as hell.

Absolutely nobody is offended by this shirt.
Misogynistic crisis actors, however, will clutch their pearls and succumb to the vapors.— David Mason (@dostovie) April 18, 2018
And of course one user just wanted to know where to buy one!
