A local man, who goes by ‘Dr Chauke’ on Twitter, sparked a fierce debate on the app after advising tweeps to “stay away from unemployed women”.
His tweet has already been liked over 7 500 times since its upload earlier this week. The debate in the replies is quite intense. While a lot of men agreed with his advice and took it to heart, a lot of women fought the idea.
A couple of women have defended themselves by saying that unemployment is not a choice as they are qualified but are unable to find a stable job.
Take a look at the tweet that started it all below:
Stay away from unemployed women.
