While the Rosetta spacecraft was landing, Rosetta scientist Matt Taylor was interviewed on TV and chose to dress, for this special occasion, in a bowling shirt covered in scantly clad caricatures of sexy women in provocative poses. Many are outraged but he also has many supporters.

"I'm bothered by the fact that no one in charge to made him change shirts before going on video. Suggests they didn't see problem"

"Is this standard clothing for him or something he wears on special occasions? Either way, he's a creep."

I feel bad for people whose lives must be so empty and pathetic that this upsets them.

Unbelievable that this is even an issue. Some people have too much free time.

Yeah, forget about the fact that they landed an effin' spacecraft on an effin' comet.
Oh no, the rocket scientist wore an "inappropriate" shirt.
Ain't rocket scientists supposed to be eccentric?

Talk about phony outrage.

Frankly if as described I am surprise they let him wear such a shirt to work. I agree that is kind of creepy and more like something you would see on some street creep.

But how does he feel about global warming? If he's on the right side, then no problems with the shirt.

Tends to help me understand why some Muslims require women to wear a burka. A woman can also be a creep.

Male TV Host Wears Same Suit For A Year To Highlight Sexism
Not a single viewer noticed, despite his female co-anchor receiving regular complaints about her wardrobe choices... but his colleagues are starting to complain the suit is getting a bit “stinky”.
