“says the cis white man”…says the white man. Says the white man who loves nothing better than to talk over, chastise, shout at, and bully women. “Rachel” McKinnon who steals medals from female athletes does not get to use his trans status to pretend to be many categories below white men on the Ladder of Privilege.
Tweet deleted already?
Why does McKinnon think separate gender categories exist in sports to begin with? Just to allow people to express their gender identity?
Why only those categories (plus age categories too, I suppose)? Why not separate divisions for, say, conservatives and liberals? For extroverts and introverts? For those who prefer the Beatles and those who prefer the Stones?
Perhaps the Special Olympics should open up to anyone who just feels special. (Cue montage of McKinnon breaking through the ribbon well ahead of her rivals, jumping on the medal stand and declaring I AM THE MOST SPECIAL OF ALL!)
Oh but you see that would be totally unfair, whereas…er…
Reminds me of Tropic Thunder:
Character in black face, to a white guy: “What do you mean, “you people”?”
Actual black character: “What do you mean, “you people”?”
