So, it's OK to publicly mock another woman?

[BelindaAllWorkedOut]

It seems the Telegraph thinks so - have a look at their Pinterest board "Claudia Winkleman's beauty blunders" (am on iPad so can't link).

The photos are of beauty blunders, but that's not the point. It's mean spirited and unnecessary, and not something any person (although isn't it nearly always women?) should be the subject of.

I have tweeted The Telegraph asking them to remove the board, but up it stays. If you agree the board should be deleted, too, please do tweet The Telegraph at @TeleFashion telling them so.

How cruel to be publicly ridiculed like that. Everyone gets it wrong sometimes but that doesn't give others the right to make fun of them for it. How nasty, mean spirited and unnecessary. I bet they wouldn't be brave enough to stand in the street making comments on women to their faces as they passed. How easy it is to hide behind a screen and pass judgement

That's so mean. It's probably written by a woman as well. :(

I wonder if they have a rogue intern, or something - I wasn't expecting thr Telegraph to set up such a Pinterest board. It really IS mean spirited and unnecessary, isn't it?! Quite cruel. They have about 4.5K Pinterest followers who will have seen it, too.

Oh I so agree with you.I looked for the comments section but their wasn't one.I'll tweet now too.

It's really disappointing how fast the Telegraph is heading down the DM slippery slope of sneering woman-hating clickbait. This doesn't surprise me, sadly.

I commented. Its just mean and nasty.

It's not just The Telegraph.

We'd need a list of just about every newspaper and magazine published in UK (yes, even those 'serious' ones like The Guardian cover women's appearance "blunders" in this way).

It's a way bigger issue than witch-hunting one item.

I don't have twitter but I commented on the Pinterest board.

Disgusting.

Trouble is I cant quite believe they are blunders at all.
I have become much more cynical of celebs of late.

I am much more of the opinion that she is doing a pr exercise. And it worked. She is on more shows than she used to be afaik.

If she was genuine, that is a different matter.

But I hugely doubt it.

chantico - I've no doubt that this issue is much larger than this particular incident, but since this is the one that's most prominent to me right now, it's the one I've objected to.

ppplease - I'm, generally cynical about slebs, too, but I don't have a view as to whether she deliberately had messy hair, poorly applied make up etc. Regardless of how she came to look like that, I'm objecting to a woman / person being ridiculed due to their appearance.

I'm actually not a particularly irritable person, but this crossed a line for me.

I can't find it at all - maybe it's come down?

I couldn't find it either Bill.

Still there sadly.

its there if you google telegraph beauty pinterest theres a claudia board.
I think she has done it on purpose but not sure why the telegraph has picked up on it.

I really hate this sort of thing.

Especially bad are the articles about slebs looking "healthy" which are just there to dig at someone being fat, whilst simultaneously digging at others being "dangerously thin" .

It's horrible.

Yep, here's the board: www.pinterest.com/telefashion/claudia-winklemans-beauty-blunders/

Oh yes, the snidey articles

I agree. Nasty and unnecessary. I'm not on twitter but I have commented on the board.

Have commented too. What an awful thing to do.

It is still there.Also sorry for the epic grammar fail on my previous post.

How nasty. The paper and "journalist" ought to be ashamed.

That's awful. I cannot imagine why on earth there is any need to be so mean spirited.

No need at all and is just spiteful.

Can't believe that a 'serious' newspaper would even consider doing this, it's shameful! Have also commented on the board.

I like Claudia. I hope she doesn't see this. Really unnecessary and nasty.

I know claudia has said she doesn't mind in the past.

It's often commented on tv too in interviews with her.

But she honestly doesn't own a mirror and does herself up rather than getting proffesionals.

She says she likes the messy look.

I think it's quite cool of her too.

Still mean to ridicule
