Sophie Osella, who goes by the username “albatrawesome” on Reddit, decided that women in the streetwear industry needed their own space on the platform after she posted a photo of herself to the Supreme subreddit r/SupremeClothing.
“I immediately got a lot of comments from guys calling me fat, a dyke,” she said. “That was the last time I posted a photo of myself on Reddit. Women are flamed — criticized — for being unattractive, or for being too attractive, or for being a girl at all. It’s just ridiculous.”
