Way to be an ignorant asshole.

How the hell is that being an ignorant asshole? They're saying it for the truth of the matter. He's actually admitted to it himself on the news and everything.

He's a man. Referring to him by female pronouns is inconsiderate at best-- frankly, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt by calling them ignorant. Maybe they know perfectly well they're being rude.

I don't know. I wouldn't have really had a problem with it, but the way he's going on about it being a medical miracle in the first place is bullshit. I lost any respect I had for the guy with trying to make this all out as something that it really isn't.

He has these opinions coming his way for turning it into such a massive spectacle when there really isn't anything particularly special about it. He's still a 'she' on the inside, afterall. And in this case, that's really what's important.

Is he going on about it being a medical miracle, though? I thought it was only the media doing that, in which case he can't be blamed for headlines.

I don't think any of what he's done justifies "these opinions coming his way" which are mostly thinly-veiled transphobic statements.

I've had the displeasure of getting to watch this presented on CNN all day for however many days they decided to do it. From what I saw there? CNN was the one attempting to debunk the 'medical miracle'. The anchors running the headline on him did not believe it.

It wasn't until the media discovered that he still had his female reproductive organs that he came out with a press conference said that 'yes, that's the case.'

He was whoring himself out to the media over it, when in reality, it's really just the same thing- but in a different box, if you will. (The aforementioned press conference is proof of this.)
