Yes, absolutely I have seen this happen too. And I’m sorry that my LGBTQ abbreviation didn’t include you, I didn’t mean to do that.

OH! Gosh I’m already having a Monday. *Facepalm* I apologize. :)
True. But I *do* give her some credit for mentioning that trans women of color are being killed/attacked in greater numbers than their white counterparts. Just some credit, though.
This this this. As a bi woman, I learned quickly that the LGBTQ community did not often have my back. “ you’re just confused or curious”, “honey you’ll figure out you’re gay/straight someday”, “please, you don’t really belong here” - all things said to me. I openly agree that it’s easy for me to pass as straight and…
I feel like the media (and all of us, quite frankly) are afraid to call this woman out for what she is—an entitled asshole who has somehow taken her white male privilege with her into her new female form. I cringed my way through a couple episodes of her E! show, and all it did was shine a light on how privileged and…
If you’re a LGBQT of color, you already knew that there are racists and bigots in the LGBQT community. We didn’t need Caitlyn to prove it.
I hadn’t thought of it that way. Damn.
I was full of empathy two years ago, and thought it incredibly important too, to see transgenders represented in mainstream media. I even watched I Am Cait - and then found out, as many others no doubt did, that she didn’t have a personality transplant and was still an asshole and basically learned nothing from the…
I mean, Caitlyn sucks, but I’m guessing deciding what to wear is pretty hard when you’re filthy fucking rich
Aw don’t be so hard on her. She doesn’t play golf with 45 anymore.
How bad is it when you agree with Kris Jenner “Yeah this person really is an asshole”.
You can’t have your MAGA Cake and not eat it too
It became clear during her show that she had done very little research on the LGBTQ community and its current state. You can’t just be a hollow icon for your community and people really did tune out after realizing that.
She’s grown into Caitlyn......that’s so nice.
I feel bad for Diane and she actually interviewed few dictators.
Gotta be frustrating for transgenders when an Idiot Trump voter is the most famous member of their community.
When she gave that first interview, we hoped and expected that she would use this unprecedented platform to talk about trans rights and elevate other people pushing for trans equality. I’d tune in for that any day of the week.
Although we as a society are doing better at supporting individuals who are transitioning, there is still so far to go and anyone making that journey is making it into unchartered waters. To see Caitlyn admitting that she just wanted the shock value is so honest and real, and it played its part in alienating her from…
Her life and of course her choice to live it as she sees fit, but I can’t stop shaking my damned head at the bucketloads of goodwill she squandered.
