    Not going to read the article. I’m just going to say that we live in the dumbest timeline.

    many transvestigators believe that all celebrities and people in positions of power are trans in a phenomenon they call “Elite Gender Inversion.” a guy reading above quote and looking confused afterwards.

    In the 90s, they would call it “gay” as a sign of dismissal or something is bullshit.

    “Oh they polluted the river? That’s gay.”

    Is that the new “trans”?

    “I got a $80 parking ticket. That’s so trans.”

    So, ok, wait.

    1. First of all, she looks great.

    2. Second, I’m two years younger than her, and I already couldn’t imagine having another newborn at this age. Woof. Good luck to her.

    3. Ok. So to the matter of this article. The Princess Diaries came out in 2001. They’re suggesting that gender-affirming care was already common enough and good enough that an unknown actress could access it in the late 1990s and have it pass undetected?!

    Honestly I think that’s harder to believe than anything I’ve read today.

      Also, why would any prominent supposedly trans actress, having successfully passed as cis for 25 years of extreme scrutiny, choose to draw attention to her gender expression now? At an age when it would be somewhat unusual to be pregnant? In the midst of maybe the least-accepting environment for trans rights in history?

        This is (at least) her third pregnancy. She probably didn’t expect this nonsense on the third go round.

      Second, I’m two years younger than her,

      Made me curious so I looked up her age on Wikipedia.

      Turns out I’m 48 days younger than her and look about two decades older 😄

    They keep talking about how fake it looks as if pictures of celebrities, especially ones at special events, aren’t modified to hell before being published, and that is after they spent hours with professional make up artists, wardrobe/designers, etc. to make themselves look as photoshop perfect as physically possible before they even get the photoshop treatment

    They are clearly in need of serious medical help. Perhaps they could be sent to a reeducation camp somewhere
