A carpenter with thousands of followers revealed that she works in her bikini to “p*ss off” old male carpenters.
On TikTok, she is known as The Bikini Carpenter, and she has nearly 40,000 followers who watch her woodworking videos while wearing a bikini and without safety equipment.
She shares videos of herself sawing and using heavy machinery on pieces of wood, taking on the male-dominated industry of carpentry, but it’s often the captions that reveal the most.
Captioning one clip, she wrote: “These oldhead misogynistic carpenters on here aren’t gonna like this one.”
On another, she shared: “Sawing brass in a bikini to p*ss off the old male carpenters on here.”
Given the misogynistic comments, it’s easy to see why the industry needs to diversify its workforce. Despite the fact that she owns her own wooden crafts business, some people accused her of pretending to do carpentry for views.
One person commented on a clip: “Now I’m trying to figure out if she is actually a carpenter or if her boyfriend lets her do videos with his stuff.”
Someone else wrote: “Somebody give that girl a fingernail file lol gorgeous.”
While some clearly objected to a woman doing carpentry, others appeared genuinely concerned about her lack of safety equipment.
“Something is wrong on this example… you need anti-cut gloves,” someone wrote.
In addition to TikTok, the carpenter has a large Instagram following of 404,000 and another 22,000 on YouTube.
