Fisherman OFFENDS Sharks With His Derogatory Language! | Shark Tank AUS

Lourens' pitch went terribly wrong from the beginning as he directed his product towards "women" because men already know all about fishing. Lourens Badenhorst entered the Tank seeking $56,000 in return for a 9% equity stake in 'Fish Frenz' - a wave energy conversion fish feeding pump.
Company Website: fishfrenz.com.au
An international sensation, Shark Tank AUS features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Tank from our Sharks, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

He should have pitched this as a product for amateur fishers. I’m not sure why he choose the sexist route 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@FitnessByMatt]

Yeah, and I mean - if 99% of females who fish don't get past the amateur level, compared to 99% of males who do, and if females are literally 200 times more like to buy products geared towards amateurs, WE BETTER NOT POINT THAT OUT, BECAUSE IT MIGHT OFFEND ONE OF THE GODS OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS. AH - 2020, where being batshit insane is a criteria to get a job...and may soon be a criteria to stay out of prison. Your comment, on the surface, is innocuous enough, Kenyatta, but here's my point: WHO GIVES A FUCK?? God, I fucking HATE how sensitive people are these days. NOBODY FUCKING CARES. Even you don't appear to care - so why the FUCK are you appeasing these stupid assholes, who do nothing but bully people about the "correct" way to think? I fucking loathe this people, and as you can see from me posting on an account connected to my actual identity, I can assure you - I say these things in real life too. Social justice warriors are such disgusting cry-bullies.

[@KenyattaBarton]

FitnessByMatt so you decided to write a whole as paragraph but I’m the one who’s sensitive? Makes sense.

[@KenyattaBarton]

FitnessByMatt also considering he didn’t get an invest it seems like a lot of people “give a fuck” Atleast the sharks since he was trying to get money and failed. So maybe he should have done something different. Food for thought. If I had to guess tho you seem a little butt hurt ? Maybe you should spend time with your girlfriend to calm down a bit. Even tho I’m guessing you don’t have one. Which is probably why you’re so angry typing in all caps on KZbin comments.

[@KenyattaBarton]

FitnessByMatt you sound very well informed and explained your point in amazing detail. You should be proud of yourself. It’s not easy to present an argument without getting emotional and you managed to do so very well. Good job boy.

@slam zamillion Because the product was about a baiting product for fish. Although if you are one of the Social Justice morons on this thread, I'm not shocked that you wouldn't get that. If you are not an SJW, or better yet, an anti-SJW, please accept my sincerest apologies for what I said above, and all that I meant is that the clickbait in this case, referred to bait. [but back to the reference to SJWs, I just think in general, they don't understand basic things...it's just that while normal people get corrected in KZbin comments' sections, SJW's make an entire ideology based out of their inability to understand things like context and nuance]
