Dylan Mulvaney has the unique ability to fail upwards. He's made over $2 million dollars appropriating womanhood.
"It's the lyrics that really highlight the classism inherent in Dylan's definition of 'girlhood.' "
"It requires wealth to be able to lay in bed all day, to pay for drugs, spend money on fasion or to experience club life."
"He defines his 'girlhood' through experiences that many women do not have on account of being poor or from non-Western cultures."
"His definition of girlhood excludes many women because it is not a definition of girlhood, but a caricature of of what women are portrayed as and specifically calls back to the misogynistic depictions of women from ealy 2000 and beyond.
"They know they're gonna get misgendered. They know WHY they're getting misgendered, but then they can boo hoo and whine and cry and say look at the hate an bigotry that we go through every day as trans people."
February 2019 Female spaces need better protection after trans woman sex assault on girl, say campaigners
"Campaigners have called for greater protection of female-only spaces after a trans woman sexually assaulted a 10-year-old girl in a supermarket toilet."
Katie Dolatowski, 18, admitted sexual assault after grabbing the girl by her face and forcing her into a cubicle in Morrisons in Kirkcaldy before ordering her to remove her trousers.
She also told the girl, who managed to escape after punching Dolatowski in the face, that there was a man outside who would kill her mother. Dolatowski also tried to film a 12-year-old in the toilet of Asda Halbeath, Dunfermline, last February."
“It is extremely concerning that in this climate many female-only spaces can be accessed by males if they simply state they are transgender.
“This horrific sexual assault of a child is a reminder that sexual predators will take advantage of any access they can get and we should be doing all we can to minimise the risks of such assaults.”
The mother of the 10-year-old girl said she felt “very, very let down” by the sentence imposed on Dolatowski."
