I don’t think you’re mocking her. I just don’t like to see so many comments like that, because to the outsiders it means, the things she says are all BS and you can’t really trust her, which is what abusive men in power want.

Besides, we don’t know if she’s already getting help. This wasn’t exactly case of a meltdown, I think, she’s only human. 

Regardless if we classify this as a meltdown or not (PopCrave’s words, not mine) I would like to think that people wouldn’t take away someone’s struggle or knowledge on the subject because mental health is involved or not. It shouldn’t be a handicap, particularly in a situation like this. 

I personally only said that as other interviews or reports have shown, she doesn’t normally react that way, even when directly challenged by less than concise opponents. Basically, she had greater composure. And since I follow her on social media and have seen an even greater change (in just months, really) on how she reacts to things, I do kind of question and worry.

Exactly. I have been following her since I created a twitter account (so like 5 years ago) and some of her reactions seem really off. Like that interview above talking about Alyssa Milano. I don't understand why she keeps attacking her. Why attacking someone who is fighting the same battle as you (even though she may be a "lie" according to her) and not someone like Linsday Lohan who publicly defended Weinstein ?

Rose unfortunately has a history of transphobic comments and sentiment so its not shocking to me that this was her response.

Maybe it was inappropriate timing for that woman to shout Rose down right then, in a Barnes n Noble, but I'm not really that upset by that part of this whole situation. How else are trans women supposed to advocate for themselves? They don''t have the fame, celebrity, or privilege or platform to do this. They were both clearly very passionate and I think even some kind of appeasement or concession would've been a more appropriate response from Rose rather than basically just shutting down her valid complaints. Like "I hear your complaints" etc, acknowledge that YES they are both women, instead of framing their experiences as innately and irrevocably different and therefore incomparable. (Their experiences are different, as are every woman's)

Though I am not really one to speak, can we avoid from defining womanhood as having breasts, a vagina, being able to give birth, and being victims of patriarchal bullshit? That's some borderline TERF bs if I've ever heard it :gum:

Wow okay she seems ways more reasonable here, maybe she was just having a bad day during the video in the OP, she just seems so passionate about this battle so I can understand why she snapped out at a stranger (who shouldn’t have attacked Rose in the first place).

This comes out around the same time this messy Nightline interview is about to air:

 

Honestly, and I mean this in the nicest way possible, but I'm concerned with her mental health. She needs to seek some help because this looks like it's only going to get worse.

I think it was the trans woman who had the meltdown to be honest.. 

The real reason were getting a 3rd rate charmed reboot without the original cast.

Honestly guys I’ve watched her other interviews she did with that yellow top and she seems way more articulate. She’s so strong.

If there’s one thing being a Britney & Gaga fan taught me is that it’s wrong to judge someone from one single video.

The trans woman was extremely rude to Rose so when someone is that rude it’s really hard to control yourself and not get angry especially when it’s about something this personal.

It’s kind of hard to watch isn’t it?

It is very hard to watch. 

Regardless of things she might have said during this outburst or in the past,  if she is suffering from some sort of mental illness or just intense anger and frustration, there is no way you can speak calmly or rationally to someone who is that state. This is also someone who voiced that she was sexually assaulted, so let's have some sort of compassion.

Hoping that peace comes into her life and everything can be resolved.

I miss 1999!  Bring us back to the lighthearted days of Jawbreaker -- while still being critical of society, of course.
