Within seconds of posting his tweet, Peterson - a clinical psychologist, author, and former professor at the University of Toronto - was met with a flurry of criticism from other users, many of whom began taking aim at his own appearance, while others labeled him an ‘a**’ and a ‘freak’.

‘My guy you look like a child’s skeleton covered in mayonnaise with dryer lint on the top. You’re in no position to be assessing anybody’s beauty you rickety junkie,’ one person fired back at Peterson, who is the author of the international bestselling book 12 Rules For Life: An Antidote to Chaos.

Others flipped the script by copying the words from the psychologist’s tweet and re-posting them with a picture of him.

Nu, 36, a Japanese and Dutch recording artist, became the first-ever Asian plus-size model to be featured in SI Swim as a rookie last year

Initially, Peterson stuck to his guns, firing back at ‘panderers’, and insisting that the decision to feature a plus-size woman on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit was ‘a conscious and cynical manipulation by the oh-so virtuous politically correct’.

In another tweet he added: ‘It’s a conscious progressive attempt to manipulate and retool the notion of beauty, reliant on the idiot philosophy that such preferences are learned and properly changed by those who know better.’

However, after he continued to be bombarded with what he described as a ‘vicious flood of insults’, Peterson called it quits, announcing that he was ‘departing’ Twitter, while branding the social media platform ‘intrinsically and dangerously insane’.

‘The endless flood of vicious insult is really not something that can be experienced anywhere else,’ he wrote. ‘I like to follow the people I know but I think the incentive structure of the platform makes it intrinsically and dangerously insane.’

He continued: ‘So I told my staff to change my password, to keep me from temptation, and am departing once again.

I agree with Jordan Peterson, but its probably not a good choice for a battle to get involved in.

He's not wrong. She is obese (by definition), and she isn't particularly pretty. Yes, "pretty" is subjective, but most people would agree that she is not. Furthermore, numerous studies have confirmed that female proportions/features that are considered attractive are consistent across cultures and nations, and her proportions ain't it.

And for what it's worth, the proportions/features of men that are considered attractive are consistent as well. What are they? $$$, and more $$$.

Like they say: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I’ve seen some big pretty females but that SI swimsuit gal is not one of them.

Remember, on social media no one has an obligation to like what you say or agree with you. When you post anything, most likely you’ll get disagreement from 50% of your readers.

Love you, Jordan. Focus on the good people, not the losers.

It’s just that there’s nothing attractive about that photo. That swimsuit looks terrible on her! She might look attractive with something better suited to her shape and size.

I think she has a pretty face. Beyond that, she could never look good in that suit, it’s ugly and would not flatter any figure.

I was unfortunate enough to have glanced at the cover of the SI Swimsuit issue.

That woman is a fat pig.

I’m curious to see how many copies are actually sold. I lost interest in this pictorial a while back when they started with the woke BS and putting spreads of nasty things in it.

Many men like such women. More power to them. She’s nasty looking, IMO.

Props to SI for being brave and actually selecting a female.

They also have a model with a ceserean section scar, gasp! I’ll be so glad when all the “firsts” are over with.
I get this magazine for our waiting room but have always thrown this one out. Skinny, obese, famous or whatever, its way too much naked for a public waiting room.
