On facebook (!!) I am friends with my mother's half-brother, we're not close and I barely know him.
On facebook his status is along the lines of "Why do so many girls put orange fake tan on, do they really think that men like it when they do that? I'd rather they were natural - girls take note."
One girl has pointed out that maybe they don't do it for men. To which he responded "I'm glad you don't but most people do... then again if one of those orange slags offered I can't say I'd say no to some orange arse in my bed." Cue lots of support from his vile friends.
I want to confront him but I don't know him well so I feel awkward about it. What would you say to him? I'm torn between a very short, "With five sisters I'm amazed you've still managed to grow up such a sexist twit," which he'd at least notice, or a longer rant which he might just not bother to read.
What do you think? I'm normally quite vocal about sexism with people I know, but when I don't know them well, I feel quite awkward about...
