Calling something sexist these days is usually just an attempt to get attention, there's usually more honesty in the sexism itself!

Be afraid; you will be taken away by the Politically Correct Police and Reprogrammed immediately.


Fun Fact: it is impossible to find a member of the opposite sex physically attractive wthout being sexist.

However, expressing such opinions as ASUS did in such a manner on a public forum such as Twitter is too crass.
