Cruise Captain's smacking reply to 'sexist troll' wins hearts, netizens say 'you go, girl'

A cruise captain’s scintillating response to a troll who asked a sexist question about her being a ‘captain’ when she’s a ‘woman’, has taken the internet by storm. Starting off by saying “it’s 2020” and that it was “high time” that she registers the questions such as that one, Captain Kate McCue went on to simplify the difference between ‘you’re’ and ‘your’ as the internet user who sent her the question used it wrongly. 

She differentiated the meaning and use of both words by giving “quick reference” and said, “you’re’ as in you are sexist” and “your is something possessive, it belongs to you...like your ignorance”. Without expressing any direct anger, McCue then adds that “don’t worry, I’m here for you”. Addressing the ‘troll’ by asking if the person needs any more clarification, they can find her on the Captain’s chair. First posted by her on official social media accounts, the video is captioned “PSA Sunday”, where PSA means Public Service Announcement.
