Benji 20,113 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Do I have to educate y'all too?She may have said it as a joke, but she's implaying cis women are somehow more beautiful than trans women just because of being cis. She may have said supporting things to Caitlyn, but that's no excuse for this tweet.In the grand scheme of things though, the criticism and hatred trans people receive is far more worrying than an idiot trying to be supportive and coming off badly. It's offensive but she's trying to be supportive and it's probably better for someone to kindly tell her to really think of some of the implications in what she said, rather than dragging her to the pits.

ryhanna 3,507 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Are we really going to scrutinise Demi for making a (relatively harmless) tweet when there's much greater examples of transphobia out there? Yeah, maybe her joke was (probably unknowingly) a little tactless, but she was obviously being supportive and praising Caitlyn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewStevens 5,249 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 It kinda comes off badly but I don't think it's offensive. Calling that offensive is something Demi would say about something else tho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladey Gagz 2,512 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 It's not offensive She supports her and that's all that matters. Instead of educating someone that supports Caitlyn, why don't you use your energy to educate those who are actually transphobic? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I don't get the subliminal "cis women are more beautiful than trans women" message. She likes Jenner's boobs and wishes she could compare to her beauty. Nothing offensive there. Also, tweets don't get their own threads iirc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haroon 49,685 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Locked because social media posts don't get their own threads (plus flamebait) You can restart the discussion of whether something like this is in general is offensive or not in the Conversation Area, or discuss the actual tweet and so on in Demi Lovato's main thread in the Fan Base section - but without the flamebait this time please Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
