HairyQueen 07/05/22 12:09:01 PM #102:	Id be very surprised if Bette Midler was transphobic. I swear Ive seen that exact same tweet posted by someone else, so its very possible that she copied and pasted it because (if youre not familiar with the current anti-trans rhetoric surrounding these terms) it could seem like its just a pro-woman/pro-choice sentiment. Plus shes really fucking old now and likely out of the loop with a lot of issues. At least thats what I hope this is. --- everybody loves intransigent zoo animals <3 <cite>HairyQueen posted [p:966353889] in Oh, Bette ...

Trialia 07/05/22 12:30:41 PM #110:	UnfairRepresent posted... Yet the supposed anger at Bette is that she said don't call women menstruators while calling for legal abortions. Wrong. What she's saying clearly implies "don't call women stuff like 'people who menstruate' because only women can menstruate or conceive", totally ignoring that post-menopausal cis women won't be affected by this and those of us who menstruate but aren't women - trans men, and agender, two-spirit, or non-binary people assigned female at birth - will be. She's arguing against linguistic inclusion in exactly the way JK Rowling was doing, and it's just as nasty and transphobic. --- PSN: Trialia_X, Xaedere (100%); XBL: trialia, Noquelle (100%), Backloggery: Trialia Pronouns: they/their <cite>Trialia posted [p:966354423] in Oh, Bette ...

They're taking that responsibility and using it to exclude trans men in this case, and trans women in others. HairyQueen posted... At least thats what I hope this is.

Musourenka 07/05/22 12:46:34 PM #115:	I really hope Bette Midler just honestly misunderstood that "people with a uterus" is referring to cis women, trans men, and nonbinary people who are affected by the right's attack on reproductive and bodily rights. Anti-trans hate has been pushed hard by TERFs, the right, and media, so it's easy to fall into anti-trans rhetoric without meaning to. Let's hope she understands why people are pushing back. --- Shooing away pigeons crapping on debate tables is not a violation of the pigeons' free speech. <cite>Musourenka posted [p:966354814] in Oh, Bette ...
