Men being better women than women was literally a 4chan meme when Bruce Jenner won the woman of the year award.

I remember thinking "but they haven't even BEEN a woman for a year and they've already outwomanned us all? What are the rest of us doing wrong?!"

Not agonizing over what to wear every morning, I guess. That is the hardest thing about being a woman, Jenner said at the time.

That and the Lily Madigan debacle in the UK were my first peak experience. Madigan was voted in as the Constituency Labor Party Women's Officer in Rochester and Strood in 2017, despite being nineteen years old at that time and, I think, having transitioned only a year before. So I learned that being a woman is so incredibly easy that the whole sex can be easily represented by a teenager born male with just a few months' experience in womaning. The open and blatant contempt that both these events demonstrate toward the actual life experiences of female people is something else!

Peak male privilege.

Crazy that when he turned himself into a wannabe-woman, I thought he was somehow an exception for being so self-obsessed, shallow and highly conservative, that he didn't seem to represent the trans community at all. It was before I peaked. It took me paying attention to what other TRAs are saying to figure out, nope, this fucker is the exact kind of representation that community deserves. That he got a whole tv show about his transition and so many interviews that tried to paint him in a positive light pisses me off.
