Keep Michelle Obama’s name out of your gender obsessed mouth.

The obsession a large number of cis-het white American male republicans have with transgender people is one of the most ignorant displays of trans attraction and insecurity I have witnessed in my lifetime. In the patriarchal world that is the far right in the United States, you have two rather dangerous things presently at play (amongst a shitload of other concerns). Insecure trans attracted men on the DL who have to assert their toxic masculinity in public settings to distance themselves from their underlying desires — transgender women. While concurrently, the far right is also comprised of massive amounts of racist, pick-me white women, devoid of compassion for other women who also perpetuate this hatred.

This is how trans people have amassed such large death statistics in America at present, because religiously conditioned men are scared of their attraction to trans femininity. When they become scared, they feel the need to overcompensate in the most obvious ways. This cycle of televised hate speech against femininity contributes to violence of not just trans women but all women, when cis-het white racist men attempt to divide cisgender women and transgender women from being allies by making abhorrent comments such as what was spoken last evening.

At the Freedom 250 event, you have a fighter being interviewed about what I assume is one of the most highly anticipated and viewed fights of his professional career. What do you think he chose to speak about unprovoked?

Michelle Obama.

I know exactly why this was said — it’s a full-out war on femininity waged by fragile cis-het racist white males’ unchecked egos with Peter Pan complexes for whom yesterday, in their minds, they peaked in this world and will be sure to never again. Why do I say this? Well, it says a lot when you’re consumed by thoughts of the former First Lady’s gender, doesn’t it?

When you’d think this fighter would be more focused on himself, his event, and his career, but no, yesterday that wasn’t enough. He wasn’t even enough for himself to enjoy his own moment. It was vital that this person, who knowingly chooses to take hits to the head repeatedly over years and years and years, who beats people for a living, had to take his career spotlight moment and ignorantly attempt to joke, while lying about the former first lady’s gender.

Buddy, you’re no comedian. Stick to getting hit in the head, you’re good at that.

In my opinion, he should not quit his day job, which is not sustainable and will inevitably break down his body, much as it seems to have already broken down much of his mind.

How’s it being a tough guy, making fun of women? It isn’t.

How’s it being a good man? It isn’t.

It’s being a self-hating one.

All I see is insecurity and cowardliness personified. I know why.

Let’s just state the obvious: for any cage match fighter, it is plausible that they could suffer from CTE, considering their repeated exposure to head trauma over the course of a career. CTE alters mental states and makes people much more hateful, emotional, and reactive regarding both the image they portray out in the world and the one that they hide from it. In high-stakes moments of intense personal scrutiny, those who suffer from CTE and/or imposter syndrome, to save face, and who may be in a destabilized mindset, could perhaps choose to say anything to deflect from potential negative attention from themselves, and yet, always choosing to center attempts to divide women says a lot.

It’s no surprise that a cis-het man who may be trying to hide something about themselves would attempt to deflect and project negative attention upon any AFAB person. One can only imagine the fresh hell that a cis-het male’s life may be like when they feel that they must vocalize such misogyny when there weren’t even women in the ring with them. The amount of space femininity takes up in the mind of someone like that is obvious.

Men who purposefully go out of their way to hate cisgender women publicly and attempt to think “jokingly” about them being transgender women publicly are often the ones bottoming for some transgender women privately. Yes, a lot of cis-men who are trans attracted and are not confident are the most hateful in public, and yet are the biggest pay pigs for transgender SW’s.

While the comment made last night wasn’t directed at a transgender person, it was a clear example of the weaponization of transgender identities as if they are something to be mocked, directed not just at any cisgender woman, but directed at a powerful cisgender woman of class.

The war on femininity is being televised daily.

A potentially closeted trans-attracted man performing traditional heteronormativity and misogyny on the world stage while waging war on what he feels like calls into question his masculinity when he is not secure in his own to begin with. That’s what I got from the clip.

Men who are secure in themselves aren’t out here at their jobs making jokes about Michelle Obama, but someone struggling with coming to terms with their own sexual desires would be likely to behave in this manner.

These men hate themselves so much that they can’t even enjoy their own moments in their own careers without making something about trying to divide women. The war on femininity thrives off the hate of trans women and is waged by the cis-het men who are attracted to transgender women. It is further perpetuated by cis-het white women, devoid of enough self-respect to stand up and to stand out against the hate of all women, rather than acknowledging that it is deeply strange and unhealthy behavior that their current cis-het male partners highly focus on hating women other than themselves. These pick-me women would rather be a trans hating imbecile rather than be a girl’s girl and call out their men’s wandering eyes and obsessive focus on their trans-attraction, disguised as hate.

Call the constant public discourse that cis-het males have on hating transgender women for exactly what it is. They are intrigued, attracted, and fanboys.

As a gay transgender man who was raised in a homophobic patriarchal household, I can clock when people choose to focus on and question other people’s characteristics, which often is quite revealing about their own psyches. One day, I’ll write that book.
