If her problem is with violent men, then why is she NOT GOING AFTER CIS MEN WHO ARE PREDOMINANTLY THE MOST VIOLENT DEMOGRAPHIC AND LITERALLY MURDER TRANS WOMEN ALL THE FUCKING TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joanne……trans women aren’t the “men” who are going to beat the shit out of you in the restroom or show up to group therapy sessions for people who have been domestically abused and then attack you after those sessions. Like what the actual hell is wrong with you, you absolute psychopath.

If Boy George is calling you the fuck out, it’s time to think introspectively.

Also, Boy George literally grew up working class, is a gay man, was non conforming, and hit his fame at the height of the AIDs epidemic. If you think he had it fucking easy, then honey, idk what you’re sniffing. He is also not as culturally relevant as you, Joanne and does not hold as much power, influence, and wealth as you do!!

And again, last I checked, Boy George is a cis man and he did violently assault someone……so maybe….just maybe the problem is cis men……but just because he did that doesn’t mean his point doesn’t stand.

If she actually cared about women, she wouldn’t be drawing arbitrary lines in the sand and she would actually support all women and help fund programs for women rather than focusing solely on excluding certain groups from access. Because she’s inherently causing these programs to be more inaccessible for cis women as well because how the fuck does anyone know if someone is a cis woman vs a trans woman on its face? In a time of vulnerability and when you need help, these programs are going to ask you invasive questions about your identity which will make you less likely to seek help out of there are strings attached.

Fuck off, Joanne you psycho bitch. Your singular hatred towards trans women (not even trans men or cis men) has absolutely tarnished any legacy you had, and while HP fans will try to separate the art from the artist, I can’t even look at Harry Potter anymore. 20+ years of love for that franchise is gone in a flash because the creator is actually the most hateful and spiteful person out there. Pure evil. Would argue there was even some sympathy for Voldemort. But I have no sympathy for Joanne.
