    Default FHM writers suspended over Facebook comments



    Two writers at men's magazine FHM have been suspended for making comments about correctional rape on Facebook on Tuesday, City Press reported.

    "FHM was horrified to learn of the incredibly offensive comments made by two of our staff members on their private Facebook pages," editor Brendan Cooper told the newspaper.

    "These comments in no way reflect FHM's values. The opinions expressed are hurtful and deeply offensive and entirely unacceptable to FHM's management."

    Just read the article on citypress. Sickening how little people can think of such tragic experience lived by a lot of victims everyday.

    SA FHM has been absolutely shit for years, so I'm not at all surprised to see their 'journalists' making comments like these.

    Serves them right. Shtty comment to make in SA. In another country it would just be dubious & he might have gotten away with it, here its a disgrace though.

    But seriously this is something you tell your friends, not publicly, with everyone being sooooo serious lately.

    Corrective rape is a major problem in South Africa. It's something which many African cultures thinks is normal. Making jokes in which you condone corrective rape is tasteless and disgusting. There is absolutely nothing humorous about corrective rape, or rape for that matter.

    These guys should be fired, nevermind suspended.
