"The awards show Mulvaney attended was the Virgin Atlantic Attitude Awards, a ceremony for an LGBT magazine for the U.K. and Europe. In accepting the award, Mulvaney stated that it had been 560 days since the influencer started transitioning, noting that some people "don't see me as a woman at all," eliciting boos from the crowd."


Their ceremony, their prerogative to give the award to whomever they desire. If the actual women in the LGBT european community have a problem with it, it is up to them to fight this battle. No heterosexual should be upset or complain about who a magazine made specifically for LGBT give out awards to.

Honestly we should have let this thread cook. The outrage would have been funny to read.

Another round of fake outrage and fake tantrums, the same issue with this individual with the budlight commercial turned into a huge uproar, just let transgender individuals live their life freely and go about their day, i wont partake in trying to curtail their rights and freedoms.

It seems you do not trully understand what the issue was with Budlight. See, Budlight was beloved by very conservative, country, white people. Of course they are going to have an uproar about the beer they like advertising that transexual as some representation of women. The company tried to acquire a new market at the expense of its old market, and did not consider that said new market was far smaller than its old one. So the company suffered for making a major advertisement miscalculation.

You don't thumb your nose at the culture of your main market in an attempt to court a new one, unless you can be certain that new one will outpace the old one. Buglight learned a valuable lesson, and that lesson is that you do not piss off the people who are most apt to purchase your product.

I just find it so crazy that a transgender person just existing is offensive, like the mere fact of being transgender alone warrants such push back and outrage is insane. Its not like the add was outrageous in any way or crude at all. I agree they took a financial hit , i speak on principle that i dont agree with the huge uproar and blowback on this. If i saw a gay man advertising NFL or NBA or premier league sports that i like and watch i would not get offended in any way

It was not a case of a transexual person existing, it was a case of a transexual person being the representation of a woman to a group of people who have a very particular view of what a woman is. This group also are your main consumers. You would be an idiot to upset your main consumers to appeasse those who do not consume your product. Budlight tried to join into the social justice realm, when they are a company that sells beer to conservative people. They forgot who their market is, and suffered for it.

Transgender people just existing is fine. Trying to convince people who do not consider transgender people to be the gender they profess they are, crosses the line from just existing into trying to influence. They failed in their attempt at that, because their market was never going to accept it and actually revolt against it. If they had not attempted that, they would not have been boycotted, would not have suffered massive losses, and Dylan would have still been able to exist without an uproar attached to "her" name.

The momentum of all this clown theatre has been slowing down,the echo chamber is slowly collapsing on itself so we're watching the inevitable circle jerk taking place. The algorithms aren't algorithming like they used to. There are grown people things happening in the world.
