Wow. I hate this company. Big game trophy hunting and strip clubs

That’s a thing?!!! 😂😂😂💀

They could afford it?

metoo is striving for a sex prohibition, at least for heterosexual men.

So we're empowering women by hurting them financially? Seems legit...

Practice from the 80 and 90s was not right then not right now

Not early enough for me

This is a write off

I support strippers!!!!

I would have guessed that would have been left behind with the 90's.

damn...we quit then!!!

I’m surprised that a public held company allowed expense accounts to write off strip club attendance. Or is Under Armour a private company? Either way not good for business I would think. Just saying!

That never should have been allowed!

w h a t EVER NEXT ? NOT b e i n g PERMITTED to CHARGE C O O O c a i n e !

Gee...thanks?🤔

Thank you ? Like that should have ever happened ?

I guess the premier persuasion that began decades ago is ending

How incredibly difficult this decision must have been 😳

In related news, the guy who authorized those expenditures was allegedly nearly injured from so many high fives.

Just now? Until 2018 you thought this was OK. And you wonder why women feel marginalized. I guess you didn't give a shit how your female employees felt.

what a shocking coincidence that this happened during the year in which entertainment expenses are no longer tax deductible

What in the world? tired

There are still companies who do that?!?

Why was that ever acceptable?

As trashy as letting your employees pay for strip-club visits with corporate cards is, it has absolutely nothing to do with MeToo

Really curious why they allowed those charges in the first place

UnderArmour You really paid for strip club visits Male & female Or complete double standard? I’m sticking with Nike .

If I wanted to see a single mom with stretch marks naked I would go to a strip bar or on match.

No more afternoon tea parties Chippendales, girls! 😥

How, exactly, is this a “me too” moment? Plenty of adult entertainers choose to do the work. This aims to turn sex workers into default victims, which most are not.

...I’m rescinding my application for a position with UnderArmour . I deserve strippers and booze... And my company should care enough to reimbursed me for my evenings of debauchery.

News flash: There are Strip Clubs for ladies to visit.

How are strip clubs related to MeToo?

Hardly meetoo who were they harming?
