Time to Flip the Script!
A screenshot of a social media post by 'libraford' dated Feb 5, featuring a block of text that reads: 'I have nothing against cisgender people- my own brother is a cis man and he's been happily married to his wife Katherine... oh sorry- Katie, I forgot she goes by a different name now- they've been legally married for ten years! And there are a lot of cis people at my workplace, which is new for me but I'm adjusting to those changes as well as can be expected of me. It's their choice, after all. Although I do wish they could see a therapist for a year before making all these decisions about their bodies. You know- those creatine powders and vitamin supplements aren't regulated and I just think that these men aren't made aware of all the risks involved in strict diets and strenuous workout routines.' The post is framed as a sarcastic, self-aware commentary on cisgender privilege and the absurdity of applying 'therapist' logic to cisgender people while ignoring the real issues faced by trans people.
