Social media star Karina Irby shocked her fans on Friday by revealing the harrowing abuse she had received from male trolls in the aftermath of the US election.
The body-positive influencer, 34, shared screensH๏τs to Instagram showing some of the disgusting messages she received following Republican Donald Trump’s victory over Democrat nominee Kamala Harris.
One shocking message from a troll read, ‘The men are back in charge now, w**re. Your body OUR RULES. Now be a polite woman and go make me a sandwich.’
Another message said, ‘Men will save the world while stupid women like you destroy it with your abortions and menstrual cycle. F**K YOU.’
Meanwhile, a third message attacked child-free women, saying, ‘You say you don’t want kids? Well, don’t fall pregnant because Australia is about to learn the right way from us.’
Karina did not hold back in the comments section and took a firm stand against these Sєxist and outdated views.
‘For people wondering how the US Election impacts other women not in America. Here’s a little taste of my DMs,’ Karina began.
‘The projection and pure anger in some people makes my blood boil. What does a woman’s reproductive choices and organs have to do with you?’
Karina expressed her belief that Donald Trump’s landslide victory has empowered hate-filled individuals to openly share their views.
‘The Sєxist mindset and foul language used by some of these people shows only a peek into the world of being a woman and coping this type of abuse,’ she added.
‘IT’S SCARY BEING A WOMAN. And it’s 2024!? Not all Trump supporters are abusive, Sєxist pigs. But all abusive, Sєxist pigs are Trump supporters.’
Karina is among a number of Australian celebrities who have taken to social media to voice their opposition to Trump’s election victory.

‘Let me get this right, we would rather a convicted felon than a woman. F**k me,’ Laura said in a clip.
Darren joined the chorus, sharing an angry rant to Instagram in which he told his Trump supporting fans to stop following him.
‘If you voted for him, we can’t be friends. You knew he was going to take away my rights and take away the rights of women,’ Darren sniped in a shock post.
