Picture of the Day: The McDonald’s Goddess
A woman dubbed the ‘McDonald’s Goddess’ for her striking looks has been the cause of a surge of sales at a Taiwan branch of the fast food restaurant.
Wei Han Xu has become an Internet icon after pictures of her, including the one above, were shared online by blogger RainDog.
Photos showed her serving customers and buttoning up her shirt while she stood behind the counter.
Rather than wearing an unflattering work outfit, Xu is seen wearing a short skirt and fierce high-heel shoes as she cleans the counter and serves up Big Macs.
Smitten fans became obsessed with finding out where their McDonald’s goddess worked and they poured into the restaurant once they found out.
Doll-like Xu – who is also known as WeiWei – is fine with the fame, having already appeared on Taiwanese game shows. [Tumblr]
Could you imagine the feminist reaction in the US if a McDonald’s tried to have their workers dress in a maid outfit?

No thanks, Taiwan.
I already have a McDonald’s Goddess.

No hair net for Wei Wei! She’s above such things, and besides—a hair in your fries is like receiving a parting gift from Galadriel.
If it were in the US, the health inspectors would shut it down for the hair.
But, before that, the slut marchers protesting in front of Chick-fil-a would put on dungarees and protest this place for sexual harassment.
On the other hand, if it were a really masculine looking cross gendered dude in high heels and a dress that actually nauseated people and drove customers away….
The Difference Between American and Taiwanese McDonald’s Workers:
They both wear clothes that objectify women.
One as a sex object showered with admiration.
The other as a disposable, replaceable, commoditized means of corporate production stripped of sexuality, individuality, and dignity.
Yay, feminists! You won!
