Laverne Cox shares her thoughts about Caitlyn Jenner

One of the WEIRDEST things about Caitlyn and Laverne is seeing the media treat them like women.

And by that, I mean considering how hot they are to be a very relevant thing to discuss.

I mean, guess it’s a kind of success of sorts for Laverne and Caitlyn and trans women everywhere - to be so considered a woman that people feel as comfortable judging your body as they do the body of any actress. But it’s also kind of a failure for society, that the most interesting thing some dinkuses can think to say about them is that they shore are purdy.

I wonder what a transwoman’s view of media objectification is. I bet it’s nuanced and interesting as friiiiiiiiiig.
