A lot of people on TikTok have been leaving backhanded compliments on my videos telling me that I look like Drew Monson and seem to get offended when I take it poorly. As a transgender woman, I don’t wish to be compared to masculine-aligned people in this way. I don’t care if you think the person is cool or good looking, you’re essentially telling me I look masculine and it triggers dysphoria. This should be a really simple concept to understand. I’m sorry if I hurt anyone’s feelings by taking it badly.
STOP COMPARING TRANSWOMEN TO MEN.
STOP COMPARING TRANSWOMEN TO DRAG PERFORMERS.
Thank you. This has been a 4am rant.
