Ah yes, the “We are defenders of women’s rights which means women get no rights and trans women no longer get to exist” argument made by the next wave of Real™️ Feminists: conservative white cishet men.

I had a wild week recently with another woman I met on Her. Our attraction burned as bright as a magnesium flame and just as strongly burnt us out into panic attacks and that was it.

Glad they’re trying to restore Malintzin to her truth. Her effort to bridge the gap between the Spanish invaders and the Aztecs deserves praise not scorn.
