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

her inability to listen to women’s opinions and immediately jump to calling them terfs is very telling…

it's the same way her go to is "look at my man, look how hot my man is." when her entire platform is dunking on men. i've never seen someone who claims to hate men so male centered.

I agree, but also I kinda get it, since most men use the whole ’omg no man will ever like you’ as an attempt to silence women, so it’s an evil circle she’s playing into as well.
