Ahhh so here we go. I bet she thought this ‘hint’ would lead to some sort of collaboration with Jamie so she could ride his coat tails. He’s ignored it, she’s taken it as rejection and decided he’s now on her tit list.

Yeah I didn't want to erase anyone's identity, I'm as pro LGBT as the next sane person, but everyone in the thread was using she and the whole thing just didn't add up!
Jack is so strange.
We were using she because Jack uses she.
I remember that MN thread. IIRC, the issue wasn’t about her bits, but because it was an award specifically for women and Jack had decided at that at that point that she was a man. Then in her acceptance speech she made some comment about rocking a beard and being pumped full of testerone for next years awards. I think the commenters on MN were rightly pointing out that she couldn’t have it both ways. ‘They’ are either a man so shouldn’t be accepting an award for women, or they’re woman.
Edited to say she was ‘identifying as male’, rather.
She’s always been ok with ‘she’, according to the Guardian.

When is that from? I’m pretty sure she asked to be referred to as ‘they/them’ at one point. I’ve just searched for the threads on MN to see if I was going mad but they’ve all been deleted. Obviously.
How irritating must she be to deal with!
Wouldn’t surprise me, seems she enjoys creating confusion
Article here https://www.archive.is/oldest/https...woman-or-a-man-interview-transgender-identity
I found the article confusing because she mentions wanting to be seen as neither male nor female but ‘as a person’ - but in the shoot dresses as a feminine woman with stereotypical feminine poses/expressions, then in masculine dress with stereotypically male stance/expression. Which to me translates to the opposite of what she said. And reinforces gender stereotypes. Or am I missing something?
duck me, I want to be treated as a person too, I had no idea it was a whole identity.
No, she’s bleeping exhausting. She says she wants to be referred to as ‘in transition’ but she’s not transitioning into a male. So what, she’s transitioning into a non-binary person? And how is she doing that? By dressing as a stereotypical woman one day and wearing stereotypically male clothing the next? It’s all very ‘look at me! Look at me!’Wouldn’t surprise me, seems she enjoys creating confusion

Honestly, this pisses me off. Complain about gender roles, sure, but actively reinforce them? duck off.
Of all the things to be wound up by that she does... I find her constant “I swear like a sailor” really annoying. Not because swearing upsets me, I do it all the time, but it’s the way she acts like she thinks it gives her more street cred. She’s like the goody two shoes who wants to be taken more seriously by the cool kids. She also overuses the word bits which I find really grating.
No words.

Some people need a 'ghastly amount' of surgery to ease their incredibly painful dysphoria, Jack
Fortunate that her version of trans involves all of the attention and none of the suffering.
