A Twitter thread about estheticians fending off male shoppers gave delivery to a more horrifying revelation. Why do morgues prefer to hire women? It's awful!

When Twitter person @beetaylora casually and horrifyingly tweeted, "Wait until the men find out that there are waxers [who] ONLY wax women and don’t see male clients because (guess why)? I really want y’all to guess why this might be a thing?" Who will have predicted the sea of replies from individuals who have been both no longer surprised, or had skilled cases of fellows being irrelevant or worse whilst being waxed. Honestly, all of us could have predicted this.

The replies to the tweet have been full of examples from women in different industries who refuse to tackle male clients because they were previously made uncomfortable by means of their undesirable advances. Then one answer stuck the eye of Bad Feminist writer Roxane Gay who tweeted, "The rabbit hole I just went down after learning why morgues prefer to hire women. SMH. Put men in rice." It's exactly what you're pondering, and according to one TikToker, it's a terrifying tale as outdated as time.

Why do morgues prefer to hire women? Let TikTok be our information.

One of the hosts from the Keeping It 101 podcast took to TikTok to supply some insight in regards to the history of men and their relationship with the useless bodies of women. "Unfortunately what Roxane Gay has discovered is something that religions, stemming something like [2,000] to 4,000 years ago, have already baked in rules about," she stated.

Brace yourselves: It's as a result of necrophilia, which as this lady states is a "wanton disrespect of bodies, predominantly violations done by men to not male bodies."

She goes on to point out that in both Islam and Judaism, there are regulations about same-sex rituals performed on the bodies. The reason for that's both "respect and in line with those religions' understanding of modesty." Of direction there may be a gloomy explanation why for this rule and it's to offer protection to the body from the "not dead men." Even in dying, women can not catch a smash.

It's true, some men can't be relied on in morgues.

The other people replying to Roxane Gay's tweet are predictably surprised and horrified by way of this update. A few folks had anecdotes of their very own while a couple of Twitter users dropped off this story about Kenneth Douglas. According to the New York Post, in 2014 Hamilton County, Ohio, was being sued by family members of more than one deceased women whose bodies had been violated through Douglas between the years of 1976 and 1992.

"After his lewd acts were revealed in 2008 thanks to DNA testing, Douglas admitted in a deposition that he had brutally raped and assaulted up to 100 different female corpses waiting to be autopsied during his nearly two decades working at the morgue," reported the hole. Douglas claimed he was struggling with habit on the time and would never have carried out this if he was sober. That is, of course, absolute bulls--t.

At the time of the New York Post piece, Douglas was in prison for gross abuse of a corpse. Per Prison Legal News, in 2015 a agreement between Hamilton County and the families of those who were raped post-mortem was once reached: "The county agreed to pay $800,000; a $2.45 million default judgment was also obtained against Douglas, though it is unlikely to be collected."
