It's weird how I'm a cis lesbian who's never dated a trans woman but I've never been called an icky TERF. Oh, wait, it's not weird because I don't run around calling trans women men.
if you don't want to date a trans woman nobody's going to hold you at gunpoint, just don't be a shitheel about it. live your life. date who you want. don't be an ass.
She called her trans girl character a "transgender boy who wants a vagina". You can argue that this was ten years ago and maybe she's changed her views; I don't know a lot about the subject so I'm reserving my judgment. But it is an actual fact that she referred to an MTF character as male.

Let's be real, almost everyone in the world has said the same shit when they were young and dumb. You probably did, too. I know a shitload of self-righteous socjus types who were nasty TERFs in high school, but these days act like they crawled out of the womb spouting Gender Studies 101 and argued with the obstetrician.
like if you're gonna pull receipts on someone, fine, whatever, but acknowledge where the hell you're pulling the receipts from. everybody said boneheaded things when they were younger
ntm a lot of this shit wasn't even on the fn radar ten years ago like, it's not an excuse per se but also you can't expect ppl to know what they don't have a way to know like... ???
it's not about the movie it's about trans women crying because an actress from it did something transphobic in 2006 and making everything about their whiny asses
Call me a terf, but I've been hassled and harassed by way too many older transwomen to ever feel comfortable around most of them. They fight like men lashing out because privileged bitches dare to talk about periods or babies or abortion rights etc etc this is actual stuff I've been harassed and targeted for.
