I hadn’t read this before, and I am honestly shocked that this is the what the uproar is over. This isn’t a call to action to hurt anyone. It is basically a statement that there is a difference between a transwoman and a woman, that distinction needs to be made, and this is mainly due to society rushing to a solution without due diligence. This is not 1/100th of what it has been made out to be. If this is all it takes for someone to never want to associate with someone else, then I don’t think he should associate with anyone. Everyone is going to differ from your opinion on one topic or another, you can’t escape it.

rab@lemmy.ca 9 months agoI read that today already, it is a lot milder than “wanting trans people to disappear”. Where are all the hateful tweets I have heard about?

Yeah I have to say what she says made a surprising amount of sense after what I was led to believe.
I still think she has no authority on the topic though and should stick to her domain.

I mean, she lied about liking transphobic tweets (“My interest in this was only professional, because I was writing a book
where the serial killer is a man cross-sressing as a woman that kills other women”), despite the fact that we know how it ended.She then proceeded with a very weird anti-trans statement (“I felt non-binary too, but I’m not trans, so you aren’t either”. What?).
And ends her wall of text by alluding that all trans women are actually men who want to prey on women (never mind that, if a man wanted to become a sexual predator, he could just… Do that, instead of faking gender dysphoria? Like, a man who wants to sexually harass someone isn’t stopping at the “girls only” sign. He’s not a vampire). But hey, before that she said that she cares about trans women, so I’m sure it’s just a misunderstanding.
