As you may know, a video was recently put up on Youtube titled "What Guys Look For In Girls". The video was made by Nash Grier, a 'Viner' who just recently became a part of the Youtube community, and featured Cameron Dallas, who is also a Viner who's new to Youtube, and O2L member JC Caylen. In the video, the boys talked about what they thought men looked for in women. Many, if not all of the qualities they listed were not only sexist, but just rude in general. Many of the comments they made were advising women to be something they may or may not have the ability to be or do, so they could attract men or have men attracted to them. Some of these included being able to cook for men, entertain men, and as you can imagine, their were several others that were a lot worse. The release and contents of this video enraged many feminists including Hank Green, brother of author and blogger, John Green. Hank made a comment under this video about how it was degrading and offensive to women. After Hank's comment spread throughout media, Nash was forced to take down the video, but not to his luck, it still lives on in the internet. Many other feminists made and posted videos responding to Nash's video soon after it was taken down. Some well-known youtubers who made response videos include Savannah Brown, Hannah Whitton, Ashley Mardell, as well as many other angry feminists. You can watch some of these videos below.
