A Sports Illustrated model has expertly responded to Jordan Peterson's 'fat-phobic' comment about her magazine cover.

Plus-sized Model Yumi Nu recently featured on the front cover of the mag, and the Canadian psychologist took to social media and issued a strange observation.

Take a look at her epic response below:

Alongside an image of the Swimsuit 2022 cover, the 59-year-old tweeted: "Sorry. Not beautiful.

"And no amount of authoritarian tolerance is going to change that."

The model issued a sassy response by tweeting: "Hoes mad."

Sorry. Not beautiful. And no amount of authoritarian tolerance is going to change that. https://t.co/rOASeeQvee

Not only that, she hit back at Peterson by uploading a TikTok of herself lip-syncing the lyrics’ to Nicki Minaj’s song 'Itty Bitty Piggy'.

"I don’t even know why you girls bother at this point,” she mouthed, as she faced the camera and shared a screenshot of Peterson’s tweet.

"Give up. It’s me. I win. You lose."

Many were on Yumi's side, with one commenting: "Why do men feel it's their duty to publicly pronounce their view on the attractiveness of women? Couldn't you just keep it to yourself?."

A second quipped: "Bold of a guy who looks like a PS2 render of Count Dooku to comment on someone else's looks."

While someone else wrote: "You wouldn't even know what to do with her."

Another addressed Peterson: "Honestly this took a lot of confidence to tweet considering your face, I appreciate that."

Peterson has since announced he would be departing from the platform, although it's not totally clear that it's because of the backlash.

And I plan to write an article on the technical reasons that Twitter is maddening us all very soon. Bye for now. https://t.co/naJnLabtqz

Via a thread, he wrote: "I recently stopped accessing Twitter for three weeks as an experiment. I had some of my staff post video links etc. It was a genuine relief. I started to read & write more. I started using it again, a few days ago, and I would say that my life got worse again almost instantly.

"The endless flood of vicious insult is really not something that can be experienced anywhere else. I like to follow the people I know but I think the incentive structure of the platform makes it intrinsically and dangerously insane.

"So I told my staff to change my password, to keep me from temptation, and am departing once again. If I have something to say I'll write an article or make a video. If the issue is not important enough to justify that then perhaps it would be best to just let it go.

"And I plan to write an article on the technical reasons that Twitter is maddening us all very soon. Bye for now."
