Amy Schumer Defends Emily Ratajkowski Against Criticism For Not Wearing A Bra
ICYMI, Amy Schumer and Emily Ratajkowski were arrested the other day while protesting against the Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh, a man who has been accused multiple times of various levels of sexual assault and misconduct.
They were arrested among tons of other protesters, and now both Schumer and Ratajkowski have been released - but not without sexist trolls still trying to gun at them. Typical.
In a lengthy statement posted to Instagram, Schumer called out those who were critcising Ratajkowski for not wearing a bra. Seriously. This is a real thing that happened.
"People are trolling @emrata for not wearing a bra while she got arrested," she wrote.
"Well for starters I wasn’t wearing a bra either. In the “what to wear when being detained for 4 hours on an 87 degree day after a 2 hour march” handbook. Bras aren’t recommended."
"Emily sacrificed herself fighting to protect women’s rights to choose what they do with their own bodies," she continued. "How about we show her the same courtesy and direct some of that toxic energy to the people who deserve it. Your comments are synonymous with saying what a woman wears insights bad behavior. Have you written three furious tweets to, I don’t know maybe, someone who sexually assaulted someone? I’m gonna guess no. You reserve your rage for the victims or a beautiful woman you’re threatened by."
A-FKN-MEN, SCHUMER.

As for Ratajkowski, she posted a simple and beautiful photo of the two of them, captioned with "Partners in crime, literally."
The new gen Thelma & Louise we all needed.
