Bachelorette fans are calling out Clare Crawley’s strip dodgeball date.
The date was accused of being a problematic double standard.
Last night, society endured what was quite possibly the most cringe episode of The Bachelorette to date, and truly, I may never recover. But aside from general awkwardness, the show got some backlash for having Clare Crawley’s suitors compete in a game of strip dodgeball, wherein they took off literally all their clothes while Clare sat there staring at them. And fans were not impressed, with many people on Twitter voicing concern about the show objectifying the men and forcing them to strip on camera.
To quote one viewer: “Anyone else watching the @BacheloretteABC feel like that was lowkey creepy that she made them play strip dodgeball, imagine if a Bachelor did that people would be up in arms. Like that felt very sexually harass-y.” And to quote another: “This #BacheloretteABC strip-dodgeball game is hella cringey. If a bachelor had asked the girls to do this, it would be severely problematic. Double standards much?”

friendly reminder if this strip dodgeball date happened on the bachelor vs. #thebachelorette, we would be furious because of the further objectification of women. so unless these dudes gave explicit consent to drop trou, no, we're not gonna celebrate this in any way. pic.twitter.com/wg3MmmBW6F

I’m appalled @BacheloretteABC strip dodgeball? Let this be the bachelor and he make the girls play strip dodge ball. I promise, that would never happen.

Meanwhile, Reality Steve responded to the concern from fans and said Bachelor Nation should be blaming the show, not Clare: πAny1 who is bitching about Clare & this date & choosing to ‘make’ them strip, I hope were also just as loud when Peter ‘made’ the women lingerie pillow fight each other,” he said. “This date is ridiculous, they absolutely have a double standard, but it’s NOT on the lead. Blame the show.”
