Krystle Baker, a USAF veteran, mom and one of the funnier accounts we follow, disagreed with People magazine naming John Legend as this year’s “Sexiest Man Alive!”:
Wholeheartedly disagree. Highly doubt he could throw me over his shoulder when needed, or defend me better than I can. https://t.co/L2bU3AM17q

And this for some reason outraged a lot of people:
Imagine being angry at this opinion.

Yes, what would a veteran who served overseas know about any of this?
"throw me over his shoulder when needed"
Yes, you never know when a saber-toothed tiger might attack the hillside encampment. https://t.co/rjSjkgHb1J

That big brain will save you!
Men with brains don't need to throw you over their shoulder to defend you. And women with brains don't need men capable of bench pressing them for defense. But at least you're transparent about both your type and your own limitations. https://t.co/2MD5VBH39s

We suspect fans of Chrissy Teigen, John Legend’s wife, had a hand in the abuse directed at Krystle:
can I try to throw you https://t.co/SWudwRA1xv

Differences of opinion are no longer allowed:
I've made the Legend Fan Club sad because I don't understand his appeal, or why anyone would classify him as sexy. We can all have different opinions, children.

And will Teigen or Legend step in and ask this to stop?

It’s almost as if it’s coordinated somehow:
Oh, I'm not bothered. Or the least bit insecure on that front. I am marveling at the organization of it all though.

Maybe a “thank you for your service” instead since it was Veterans Day this week?

Hell yes!
Is there like a Kickstarter for this, or what? Asking for a friend.
