@NiffLankenau They're married. If it's his car, it's her car.

yes. it's HIS car. anyway, i think the wording is to show that letting someone doodle on a car like this is a big deal. turned out great tho

No, it's his car. As a man I would ask my wife for permission to draw on her car too. It's called common respect, not sexism.

I don't think it's sexist .. he probably did let her. But she is definitely the star here

So quick to be negative.. What are we when a couple do something nice together, and we get technical and ignore the beauty?

Do you think it's sexist that it says he let her? It's HIS car. If my lady painted my car without my permission, I would be furious.

Lets say the couple lived in a house that the wife bought, should the man ask permission before he doodles all over the house?

The title was meant to invoke curiosity at the result. Wife creates beautiful art spoils the surprise result. Get off your pedestals.

You're missing the point that the car belongs to him. Anything done on the car must be with his permission. It has nothing to do with sexism

I get how it's cool to jump to conclusions that everything is sexist but sorry this is not. It's a GT-R and you don't just doodle on a $100K

I would say, "LETS". My wife is a skilled artist and I wouldn't let her do that to my car and I wouldn't touch her car without permission.

@PanFerdinand : You're serious there? Wow... I totaly agree with the title : he LETS his wife paint on HIS car. I know I wouldn't do that..

"Gay Guy Lets His Artist Partner Doodle With Sharpie Pen On His Nissan Skyline GTR" - sexism problem solved. Happy?

Topic makes sense as is. 1. its a skyline GTR. He must really love his wife to let her do ANYTHING to a skyline GTR. 2. It's his.

@NawaazIbrahim did you read the article at all?

Are you equipped with any intelligence what-so-ever? What if you came home to your car drawn on by a sharpie by your husband with no consent

That is the same as saying "woman lets husband drive car through painting" It isn't sexist, it's a passion statement, he is a car guy.

"Gay Girl Lets Her Artist Partner Doodle With Sharpie Pen On His Nissan Skyline GTR" - sexism problem solved. Happy?

@CheyanneThomas "There are men talking. If your going to be a jackass atleast use correct grammar." It's "you're".

House is theirs, but a car is a more personal thing. MY car is MY car, and the truck is his.

@PamFerdinand - in the know on their marriage (i.e., how they treat ownership and how it's structured)? Are you a broad brush artist?

Cut out the feminist c**p jesus christ. It's his car, he let her touch it, yes.

There are men talking. If your going to be a jackass atleast use correct grammar.

Yes. Its a left hand-drive Nissan Skyline GTR!

I like how all these comments are about the title. I think it's accurate, when a man loves his car and lets you draw on it.. you're loved..

technically he LET her doodle on some scratches.. and then it went from there. it's an expensive car.. you don't just draw on cars anyway.

Why is it only men flipping out about Feminism. The article is about the both of them, so the title should reflect that. Which it doesn't.

Shhhh. There is men talking here.

@PaulA'Barge read a definition of "feminism" published in the last decade. Don't like it? Go back to the 1950s.

it was his girlfriend, so this entire thread is irrelevant. Yes, the writer of the article still could have chosen a better title

At first I had the same issue, but then checked the sources, and as she is actually his girlfriend, he did "let" her

It's his car. My car is still my car, even if I'm married. It's about respect, baybee

It's his car!

R33s don't cost 100k in Japan (pay attention to plates and mention that hes a service member). Whole lot of ignorance...

I'm agree, it's more about the artist!

I think the title is worded fine but you don't need to bash feminism. There are different degrees of feminism and some are good.

@nords he is stationed in japan, as am I, so he did not pay no $100k for this, more like maybe $4000 if not much much less

you overlook the article and the amazing artwork by focusing on the Headline and how "sexist" it was poor showing. This is beautiful art.

Why are you valuing the car when you should be valuing her amazing work? If he has 100k to spend it's not like it's a big deal for him.

Please, its not about the 100K. A man loves cars, and a Skyline is a God among vehicles. He must REALLY love/trust her.

If he did pay $100k for the car he is an idiot

I agree, I'm a little disappointed on the wording as this is a very detailed and elaborate pattern labeled as a doodle.

Its not misogynist, you don't just draw (even if it is gorgeous) on an R33 GTR. This is a car that won, and continues to win and compete in racing competitions, a car that was unbelieveably ahead of its time. Its a real supercar. It is *HIS* car (read the source), and obviously he loves it, because of the time he is putting into tuning it, so he did *LET* her do it.

The mona Lisa wasn't painted on a $100000 car tho

The drawing is called Zentangle.

It's a standard ugly skyline bruh. It's not 100k

GavinCoish, I lived in Japan for 15 years. GTR 33s (this model) are 2000-4500 used.

I agree. I'm a girl and even I know that NO ONE lets someone doodle on a Skyline GTR.... no one. Except this brave soul.

It's easy to dump 100k into a skyline

I don't think that anyone is saying she didn't need his consent. But given that she got it, the article should focus on her accomplishment

I would NEVER let anyone (man, woman, transgender etc etc) draw on my skyline if I had one

You obviously dont know anything about cars. An R33 is not 'dull'.

That really is the reason they phrased it that way. It's like "OMG, he let her doodle on WHAT CAR!?" and then it's like "Oh... dammmmnnn..."

Lol me too except I created an account just to thumbs down someone's comment!

So at what point does it not become sexist? If the car is worth $200k $200k? $800k? Because I wouldn't LET HER do that to my $60k car...

love your userid name u created! "Friends" Forever!

I just want to know what this guy does for the military that he can afford that car, the sharpies, and the clearcoat.

@beckywalker did you read before commenting at all?

whoops wrong comment sorry
