Yeah, biologically. But you wouldn't call her a man in public. Misgendering and deadnaming trans people isn't helping anyone.

Calling Blaire White a "he" is disrespectful af

But you wouldn't call her a man in public.

I would. And I so so now. I'm with BEB on this 1000%.

BTW, I think Blaire White's pretense of being a woman, and his drag and porn-inspired interpretation of being a woman, are "disrespectful af" as well as harmful to girls and women and to other gay men like Blaire.

You coming here and telling actual women with decades of experience fighting for women's rights, and gay and lesbian rights, that we're not allowed to refer to men as men if those men are pretending to be women is a perfect illustration of the misogynistic authoritarianism of GITs (gender ideology tyrants).

What does this even have to do with GC?

You clearly have no idea of what "gender critical" means.

What do you mean by "porn-inspired?" You can call transgender people whatever you want, I'm just pointing out that it's rude and doesn't help people feel comfortable engaging in GC at all. I can't see how showing a picture of a transwoman with a gun has anything to do with GC. How is Blaire White affecting women and gay men by wearing what she wants? As an "actual woman," I don't see the problem here.

Let me guess, you're going to state that TW are never so rude to women. (cough TERFisaslur) (cough cough. Woman costume so pretty!). Woman is NOT a costume; we're people! Adult Human Female. That's what it has to do with GC.

No, there are transwomen that are very much rude to women. Being trans isn't putting up a costume for Halloween, fam. I still don't see why a transwoman posing for a photo has to do with anything. It bothers me because to me it looks like- making fun of someone just because they're trans.

Honey you're not gonna win this. Reading your comments, you sound fairly young and it's understandable but seriously use critical thinking for just a minute. The other women were making great points and believe me, as a feminine gay man myself, even I can see that it's clear that Blaire thinks that by dressing like a blow up doll, it's purely just for the attention of men. He doesn't "act" like a woman. Woman & Womanhood is not an act, it's a biological reality but if we're really gonna go there I'm just gonna say it, he acts like a flamboyant drag queen with his mannerisms. No woman I have ever met (who was not obsessed with Drag Culture) acts like he does. If you haven't already, I highly recommend watching some Drag Queen videos on YouTube and actually observe how they act and when you do, it'll be clear what we mean.

And people here are not making fun of Blaire because he's an effeminate, flamboyant, gay man, they're making fun of him because he thinks that acting the way he does makes him a woman, it's the delusion that we find funny.

It's not childish to point out that this post and the commenters are deliberately mocking someone because they're trans. I don't understand the delusion you keep talking about. Blaire White is very aware that she's not a real woman. That's literally the whole point of being trans. I'm not trying to win anything, I'm just here to point out bullying when I see it. I try to understand GC, but all I see is regurgitated homophobia.

If he knew that, he wouldn't have a problem calling himself a man. Just a man who likes to look the way he does. That's the joke. And no it's not homophobia lol. Feminine gay man here, never once was treated horribly by any Gender Critical feminist but that's because the difference between me and Blaire is that I don't think my being interested in feminine makes me a woman or a subset of woman whereas he thinks otherwise even if he doesn't outright say it.
