Xzxcuzme 106 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 As a trans girl myself i kinda feel weird about it, i have followed dylan on tik tok for a while and i honestly cringed every single time. Her videos are full of stereotypes also her obsession with tampons it’s so weird; I was so embarrassed when she posted that video about stealing other womens husbands. again, this doesn’t justify the hate she’s getting, but i also think she’s absolutely not a good example for the trans community. This might sound controversial, but again it’s just my personal opinion. 11 4 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggy 10,730 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Good for Gaga. This is the kind of thoughtful stuff I want to hear from her (though ideally under better circumstances ofc). This sounds very personal and heartfelt. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not a liberal either. TERFs famously couch their conservatism in “common sense” politics to normalize their beliefs 3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the stuff when our voices matter and should be bold and heard. that’s way more important than all the „yaaas, I love the hair“ type of comments under her other postings. It’s a bit disappointing that the shitty comments are louder than our comments and likes…. We should change that Exactly. I just posted a "like" and a comment. I live outside the space time continuum. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen 30,266 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 It's not about Dylan, it's about all trans people. And even deeper than that, it's about all humans being worthy of love and respect. Love her so much. 18 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Controversial person does not equal justifying transphobia. It's just like when people tried to use James Charles and Jeffree Star to justify homophobia. Are they terrible people? Yes. Are their sexualities a problem? No. he/him/his 4 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwerk 6,984 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) When one of my longtime favorite artists Anouk, shared anti-trans sentiments on a post on Instagram the other day I was so sad and disappointed. She posted menstrual blood and said that is what makes a real woman. Not only denying the Trans women experience, but also intersex people or women who do not menstrate (anymore). It hurt me as a women she felt she had to make a public statement like this. Apparently she feels threatened by something and I had always seen her as fearless and free. Thank goodness for Gaga. She's such a powerful ally and I'm so happy she spoke out on this and didn't just support Dylan in private, because sadly this sentiment expressed by narrow-minded people needs counter balance.

I suspect that Leaf is quite a young person maybe. They joined in 2011, even if they joined at the age of 6 they would be an adult now. Time.

Starmie25 13,141 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 It's sad how some people are surprised she made a post regarding this issue... considering this is the same woman who's been an ally for decades, released BTW, used her platform and connections to help covid/BLM and continues to help others with their own mental struggles and so on. Sigh.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juanjo 1,928 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I am so proud of Gaga for sending this crucial, and very clear, message. To Dylan and the entire trans community, you are seen, and you are supported. Love will always conquer hate. ❤️ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
