This rhetoric is ideal for listeners who believe trans women are an issue that they’re supposed to care about, but don’t actually have any real-world experience with them. The hypothetical trans girl who’s supposedly causing all this trouble in the WNBA is the perfect tool for the conservative movement. She can’t fight back, she can’t disprove anyone’s assumptions, and she can’t garner sympathy when she’s the target of hate. The perfect trans girl is the one who only exists in the imagination of the loudest cis people. Her monstrousness, the need to “protect young girls in a locker room” from her, gives them permission to enact policies that in reality only harm the anonymous girls, cis and trans, who want to play sports without the invasive scrutiny of gender-obsessed adults.
The Defector – Laura Theisen – The Right Has Created Its Perfect Trans Athlete
Phil has a question:
Why does the Christian religious right have to keep creating these fearmongering bogeymen scenarios.
If the Christian religious right’s view of their God from their fucking perverted view of their Bible is so great then why did he/she/it/them create trans-women.
Could Sophie Cunningham please fuck off.
Why are the Christian right zealots not treated as terrorists.
