But she's 100% right tho
Trans women are trans women
Women are women
And trans women have benefited from the perks of being a man most of their life
Sorry

She's right

the crux of what she said was that trans and cis women have different paths. don't get the outrage.

I saw a snippet of what she said in reference to trans women and she was right. I don't see the issue.

I could see if she completely invalidated, denigrated, or made an ignorant assumption about Trans women but she didn't. She practically said she struggles with the concept and does not see either group having the same journey in life. She also said she is not the authority on any of these things...

The only issue I could see someone having is if trans women should be labeled as just women. Everything else is pointless fumes.

Must be the white gays fuming. Where was this uproar when transitioning Cait was behind trump  :letsmessfag:

Queen said what she fucking said and I agree...the struggle of the trans woman is not the same as the struggle of a woman.

It's pretty impossible for them to share the same experiences

No matter how you slice it.  I don't see how that's a slight toward them in any way shape or form. What's offensive here?

I stopped reading after the first couple of lines. Fem! policed! Couldn't be myself!
Yeah Laverne doesn't know the difference between being fem and being a woman and the automatic disadvantage they have in society.
Laverne is coming off as most of the self centered white gays who think they are some endangered species.

Post by: hewritez on March 14, 2017, 05:44:28 PM
the privileges of being male and the backlash of being trans are two separate issues.

She has said nothing wrong. She chose only to address one and not the other.
As she should. She's a woman.

Laverne speaking about being policed about her gender expression makes Chimanda's point. That's something so many queer men experience, it's not something exclusive to transwomen.

This is a shit show.
