A Sydney man is facing up to three years in jail after allegedly posting a series of offensive comments online about a woman whose Tinder dating profile went viral.

Zane Alchin, 25, pleaded guilty and was charged with using a carrier service to menace, harass or cause offence after he allegedly wrote a series of degrading comments directed towards Olivia Melville after her Tinder profile was shared online by another man Chris Hall.

He previously denied the offence but changed his plea on Monday at Newtown Court, in Sydney.



The comment was prompted from a lyric in Ms Melville's Tinder bio from rapper Drake’s hit song Only, reading: "Type of girl that will suck you dry and then eat some lunch with you".

Mr Hall posted a screenshot from Ms Melville's profile to his own Facebook account and wrote next to it "Stay classy ladies. I’m surprised she’d still be hungry for lunch".

One of Mr Alchin's alleged comments said: "It’s people like you who make it clear women should never have been given rights", News Corp reported.

Another comment also referenced "raping feminists", but singled out one woman as not good looking enough to rape.

"You know the best thing about a feminist they don't get any action so when you rape them it feels 100 times tighter," he wrote.





Another post said: "It's people like you who make it clear women should never have been given rights," suggesting they should be taken back to the '50s were women 'knew their role and shut their damn mouth'.
