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.

To me it applies to GC because Blaire made a point the gun was "Barbie Pink" which made me roll my eyes. Paying extra to make your death machine "the official girl colour teehee" shows how dedicated Blaire is to this bimbo character as her "female identity".

I see you're new here so my suggestion is to take posts here as they are: written by a variety of individuals with a wide array of views, interpretations of what GC means, and beliefs about what trans people want or are like as a group. Many are rightfully angry and come here to vent.

We have our own shorthand so as a newcomer I can see why it's confusing to see a post like this and think "they're not even talking about philosophy, they're just nitpicking trans people" when we're not spelling out our point in the OP.

I'd say try to lurk and read the back catalogue of a variety of posters before deciding what the whole sub is like. And if it's too harsh for you, try Ovarit lol
