“Ms Millar previously shot to prominence after being controversially charged with posting allegedly homophobic and transphobic content online. Prosecutors discontinued the case in October last year.

Black transgender actresses Laverne Cox and Angelica Ross discussed the stigma men face when dating transgender women on the latest episode of If We’re Being Honest With Laverne Cox.

“It’s deeply problematic when people hear that a famous man is with a trans woman and they automatically think that he’s gay,” Cox said. “Because that is disavowing the womanhood of trans women.”

“I can’t believe, in 2022, we’re still dealing with stigma. And that there are so many men, celebrity men, famous men, who are terrified of people finding out that they’re sleeping with trans women. I honestly can’t believe it!”

Still, Watkins said she does not align with the transgender community because “really ultimately I hate myself; I see myself in them.”
“It’s not a like a flag you wave. ‘Look how cool,'” she said. “For me, it’s just like painful… It’s embarrassing and honestly disgusting.”

If this is true and not just a gambit to avoid punishment, that might be the saddest sentence I have read in a while.

I’ve met a few trans folks like her. It’s so sad to see someone who has internalized hate so thoroughly. Being trans is a gift, I just wish some segments of society could see that.

I wouldn’t feel safe in a restroom will her; but I guess safety concerns only extend to real people.

Right? She clearly would lash out, because she seems to believe trans people existing is somehow a threat to her life. As if it’s not straight white cisgendered men who are the real threat to all of us… A trans person did not beat her, it was a man who did that shit.
