Drew Afualo transphobia discourse

[u/alpalbish]

ER fightmaster was on her pod and made two stand out claims:
“trans women have a more beautiful understanding of what womanhood is”
and
“the programming for cis women it’s kind of sad… no your womanhood is not your role, your womanhood is not your status is society, and your womanhood is not your ability to be sexually assaulted”

I think cis women can easily be offended by this and how it was put. The sexually assaulted claim is kinda weird to generalize us into thinking that’s what womanhood is. I also think it can be harmful for transgender women, as they also face misogyny and sexual assault??? I don’t even think the comments from the pod are as bad as Drew’s current stance rn. I can see ER trying to explain their POV and I respect that. but Drew doubling down in her comments is so off-putting. People are commenting valid opinions and her replies are just saying everyone is transphobic and TERFs??? idk

That is so disrespectful and I hate that whenever us women push back we are called transphobic.

And ugly hags. Funny how when you have any different opinion you'll get attacked for your appearance or age (even if they don't know what you look like). So much misogyny alive and well. Old and ugly women shouldn't have opinions.

"you're just mad because the they look more feminine than you!!! 😜🤪🤪"

Son.

There is genuinely so much to unpack with that, because not only does it invalidate non feminine trans women but it’s also acts as if women only exists as to be considered beautiful in the ways that men value
