The insult that divided fans on The Bachelors season premiere: “Funniest moment of the whole night!”

In the premiere episode of “The Bachelors” on Sunday, two contestants clashed over their professional activities.

Anastasia, 32, discussed her career and asked the other women to guess what she does for a living.

Mel, 35, took a moment to respond before asking: “Are you a stripper?”

A clearly offended Anastasia then replied “No” without clarifying what she does for a living.

Anastasia is a property developer from Victoria, while Mel is an Indigenous mentor from the Northern Territory.

“Are you a stripper?” Absolutely the funniest moment of the whole night!’ one person wrote.

Another viewer chimed in: “Let me guess your job… are you a stripper?” A bit awkward.

Yet another person agreed: “Embarrassing, don’t think anyone is a stripper.”

“Were these women told to just say random and offensive things to each other for the sake of drama?” someone else wrote.

“So does Mel assume that every hot slut is automatically a stripper?!” another person asked.

“Anastasia, what’s wrong with being a stripper?” “I’m sure some people would think it’s better than being a real estate developer lol,” someone else said.

“I think I like Mel. “I think we’re going to find that Anastasia is not a real estate developer,” mused one conspiracy theorist.
