Studio 10 host Sarah Harris went off on Twitter today after a troll made a *disgusting* implication about her body.
A Twitter user going by the name John Smith tagged Sarah Harris in a Tweet saying “My estimation of Australia took rather a nosedive, seeing how you use your body, to bolster flagging ratings? Who are you trying to control?”

For fuck’s sake. If I rolled my eyes any further, they’d be staring out the back of my head. The implication that women can wear a skirt and suddenly have the nation at their feet is obviously ridiculous, but also like… what has this got to do with control?? I am done with the internet today.
Sarah Harris obviously didn’t let such a slimy comment slide, tearing John Smith a new one in a cheeky response.
Thanks so much for your feedback on my TV wardrobe John. You’re right, skin is the devil’s work (especially WOMEN’S KNEES. Gross) and ladies must be covered from neck to ankles at all times. Just checking today’s look meets your exacting standards? https://t.co/FuUhWQWavS pic.twitter.com/jzNOLHdsSC

“Thanks so much for your feedback on my TV wardrobe John,” she said in a tweet.
“You’re right, skin is the devil’s work (especially WOMEN’S KNEES. Gross) and ladies must be covered from neck to ankles at all times. Just checking today’s look meets your exacting standards?” she said, and then followed with a picture from The Handmaids Tale.
We love a classy clap back.
Honestly, these men have too much audacity. TV presenters generally have a dress code anyway, she wasn’t even wearing anything ~revealing~?? Not that it would justify any commentary on her body either way, but it’s amazing how some will find problems in anything.
I wonder, if we actually *did* have a fully covered woman on Studio 10, how do you think the world would react? Imagine a hijab-wearing woman like me as a TV presenter, or *gasp* a woman wearing a burqa. Would John Smith (lol) approve then??? Chances are people like this don’t actually want women to be more covered up (they probably even oppose it), they just enjoy trolling.
