some people were pretty harsh towards her
Those people largely outnumber the ones that compliment her.
Normally, when it's male IFBB Pros, they want to continually be stroked. No negative attention or remarks in any way. They'll go back and forth a couple times and eventually leave- or at least register under another name. They are very pias, like they're better because they're pros.
Melissa, I think, knows people will say what they want-both negative and positive- and understands that. Doesn't mean she has to take the CONSTANT negative onslaught any time some of her pics are posted.
Pretty much every week there is something posted and her name is brought up, and the same crew start in on the pedantic discourse about her.
