Aly Raisman Claps Back At Muscle Diss
Aly Raisman Claps Back At Muscle Diss
Fresh off a what looked to be unforgettable vacation in Turks and Caicos and a big birthday celebration, Aly Raisman didn't quite receive the welcome back she may have hoped for earlier this week.
Lady at TSA: "Gymnast? I recognized u by ur biceps"

Man at TSA: "I don't see any muscles" & continues 2 stare at me
How rude & uncomfortable
She then went on to PREACH for all strong girls everywhere.
I work very hard to be healthy & fit. The fact that a man thinks he judge my arms pisses me off I am so sick of this judgmental generation.

If u are a man who can't compliment a girls you are sexist. Get over yourself. Are u kidding me? It's 2017. When will this change?

He was very rude. Staring at me shaking his head like it couldn't be me because I didn't look "strong enough" to him? Not cool.

And of course, some of the follower reactions were on point.
