(1,962 posts)Because if you did, you'd give a damn about how we feel, instead of cisplaining us. You don't get it. None of you do. You don't get how hurtful your posts are on this subject. Or maybe you do, and that's the point.
Lia Thomas didn't work hard? That's the thing. You all sit there and act like this is Juwanna Mann or something. It's not.
The next time any of you even try to think of what's fair to a transwoman on any of these issues will be the first. Because I've tried being polite about it, but, I can't anymore. The way you and others speak about these issues, and speak to us, makes it clear that to you, trans lives don't matter.
Until you push back as much on Kamila Valieva as you do Lia Thomas, you're just targeting transwomen. I repeat what I said in my response last night: I don't believe you. Why should I? You speak about trans women like they're nothing but men in dresses. You speak to me like I don't have any feelings at all.
