I fear now that there will be a decrease in women eating on the tube, but not because of the Facebook group. It’ll be because of these shock tactic articles in the Guardian, the Telegraph, the Daily Fail, the Huff- basically anyone is allowed to waffle on about nothing-‘s respective posts on the subject celebrating this culture of self victimisation. People will have seen the interview with Tony Burke – the founder of WWEOT – on the BBC news, which was deliberately poorly edited so that his point is conveniently skirted around. And at the end of it all everyone has pretty much had it blasted in their faces that ‘it’s shameful to eat on the tube’.

And no one else has shouted that message more than everyone complaining about the group. The backlash itself has spoken volumes – check out Men Who Post On Women Who Eat On Tubes, and Women Who Will Eat Whatever The F**K They Want On The Tube – with the word feminism often being thrown around like it’s nothing. Feminism is about equality, and you’re only equal if you make yourself feel equal. We have the luxury in this country to be able to do that. Feminism is not about making yourself feel like a victim. WWEOT has nothing to do with gender politics, yet it’s been used as a scapegoat with a point entirely missed. CRY FACE.

WOMEN – BE AFRAID OF EATING ON THE TUBE IN CASE SOMEONE TAKES A PHOTO. CALL THE POLICE. IT MIGHT KILL YOU. IT’S CAUSE ALL MEN HATE YOU. HATE THEM BACK.

OH THE IRONY. F-off I’m afraid. I wrote this on the tube this morning, whilst eating a flakey croissant, crumbling it all down my front and masticating like a pro. Should have taken a selfie and posted it, but unfortunately that wouldn’t have gone with the rules of the group.

So in defence of Women Who Eat on Tubes- (and I’m talkin’ bout the women eating and about the group itself) – KEEP EATING LIKE IT’S MUFFIN’.
