What a bunch of sanctimonious, humourless, racist arseholes. Only my opinion of course.

They are rattled. As they should be.

Does anyone still use their MySpace account?

Or Vine account?

No? Why not? New platforms exist. More will rise up for her to go on. And now she'll have extra fame currency and support.

Delphinium20 · 15/09/2020 01:38

Her first response was so reasonable and kind, "hey, didn't know what the pronouns were. That's cool if you add yours. I'm not going to. Bullying people isn't good."

And still people attacked her.

You WILL say the words. Angry

May I suggest that everyone with SM accounts add "Beep, Boop, Bop" pronouns to their bios?

Kokeshi123 · 15/09/2020 01:49

“I’m not against trans lives at all. They need to find less abusive representation.”

God, what a brilliant response!

I love this.

I just hope she is tough enough to continue holding strong and not cave in to pressure. I know it is hard on actors who worry about employment.

NiceGerbil · 15/09/2020 01:57

I thought that what you want to be identified as/ called is not up for debate?

How is this worse than any of the other myriad of pronouns out there?

Eg uwm.edu/lgbtrc/support/gender-pronouns/#:~:text=What%20are%20some%20commonly%20used,male%E2%80%9D%20or%20%E2%80%9Cmasculine.%E2%80%9D

Scroll down to yellow section.

There is something in common with the people who get told who they are and words they can use, isn't there...

Soubriquet · 15/09/2020 02:00

Brave woman! I hope she doesn’t cow to public demands.

Hopefully she will realise that there are lot more supporters than people trying to pull her down

Boop/Bop/Beep!

HarryHarry1 · 15/09/2020 02:34

I liked her before and I like her even more now. Everyone should have beep bop boop as pronouns.

I seriously don’t even understand why non-trans people would use them. If you are a trans person who doesn’t quite “pass” as your acquired gender, then I understand why you might want to make it clear that you want to be called she/her or he/him (though why on earth you think you can dictate how people refer to you when they’re not speaking directly to you is beyond me). But why does anyone else have to do it?

NiceGerbil · 15/09/2020 03:07

Well women have complained for years about being called things that aren't their name.

That was trivial though. And making a fuss.

Torvean32 · 15/09/2020 03:54

I love her attitude. I've never seen a more precious and entitled as some of these twitter users. So by their rules anything is offensive as long as they say so.

ChattyLion · 15/09/2020 06:02

The self righteous narcissistic hypocrisy around trying to enforce pronoun statements never ceases to be shocking. It’s like trying to enforce religious belief on non believers. Just absolutely no.
I’m sorry that this woman is getting aggression for not caving to demands around it. Flowers

Pronouns are rohypnol

Christ what a bunch of whiny piss babies.

EmpressJKRowlingSpartacus · 15/09/2020 06:42

These bullies are going against the Yogyakarta Principles, which state that nobody should be forced to declare their gender identity.

Done!
JonasKahnwald · 15/09/2020 07:13

I've just followed her on twitter so her account is back 👍

SophocIestheFox · 15/09/2020 07:31

Beep bop boop!

“Need to find less abusive representation” 😂

Everyone has the right to self determine their identity and express it as they see fit, except uppity women, who will do as they’re fucking well told.

CaraDuneRedux · 15/09/2020 07:37

Twirls in new user name (I had something similar a while back, before a de-reg and re-reg).

Well, this Mandalorian fan thinks she's fabulous - always has been, even more so now!

WiserOlder · 15/09/2020 07:41

Wow, she is handling it as well as it is possible to handle this abuse (but they dont even recognise that)

YessicaHaircut · 15/09/2020 07:50

“If you won’t put your pronouns in your bio I’ll scream and scream til I’m sick! I can.”

SerenityNowwwww · 15/09/2020 07:51

Put them on put them in!
No - you are doing it wrong - put them in how I tell you to!!!
You won’t - then, then, I’m tellin’

CranberriesChoccyAgain · 15/09/2020 07:54

Oooh, Disney is very woke and powerful, I hope she survives this.

Demanding pronouns under threats, how very "kind", eh?

RomeoLikedCapuletGirls · 15/09/2020 07:56

I’m not against trans lives at all. They need to find less abusive representation

Just about sums it up

EnjoyingTheSilence · 15/09/2020 08:17

It’s all so very sad and worrying. For women and trans people who just want to get on with their lives

ChattyLion · 15/09/2020 09:25

These bullies are going against the Yogyakarta Principles, which state that nobody should be forced to declare their gender identity.

That’s very helpful to know in case other people are told to do this in a professional context.
