I haven't seen anything on this board (though may have missed it) about the fallout from Malik Yoba's appearance on The Breakfast Club radio show (Malik Yoba best known as an actor on some 90's show; The Breakfast Show a very important media outlet with a largely Black American audience), during which he addressed being 'trans attracted' (i.e attracted and having had relationships with transwomen, while still considering himself a heterosexual man who loves "all women").
There were guests on the show - two transwomen and a gay man (I think he described himself as 'same gender attracted') who seemed to be there mainly to police everyone's language, and who helpfully informed everyone that their sex had been assigned to them by an obstetrician and there's "nothing natural about" being born a biological female.
Anyway what I have found interesting and encouraging is the pushback by several Black women vloggers / social media types, against the imposition of the label 'cis' on their experience, and against the blatant disrespect for the lived experience of womanhood that gender id ideology represents.
There are a few really powerful responses to be found (though I wouldn't agree with every statement in each of them) and I wanted to share one here, from MsLess on YouTube:
MsLess . Her delivery reminds me a bit of Penny White in that she's softly spoken and speaks slowly, but is very clear, calm and thoughtful in her critique.
I'd also be interested to know of others have come across critiques / responses from black women's perspectives which may have passed me by. FWIW I think that race is relevant due to the way in which some TRAs conflate racism / white privilege with 'transphobia' / 'cis privilege'; appropriate and redefine the concept of intersectionality so that it's now used interchangably with 'centring transwomen'; and dismiss or demonise critiques of genderist ideology as 'white feminism.'
