State Dept. Sorry for ‘Sexist’ Tweet

NEVER TWEET

After ubiquitous backlash.

The State Department tweeted a really peculiar tweet earlier today warning against being robbed abroad. "Not a “10” in the US? Then not a 10 overseas. Beware of being lured into buying expensive drinks or worse—being robbed. #springbreakingbadly," it read. They later apologized after being called out fervently. "Some have been offended by our earlier tweet and we apologize that it came off negatively," another tweet read.
