One says it’s biology – the other says it’s bullying (via toofab)
"SAD TO ANNOUNCE that @jameelajamil has revoked my invitation to her podcast bc I tweeted 'only women can give birth'. Apparently the statement made her trans co-workers feel 'unsafe'," Candace wrote. "My refusal to untether myself from biological realities has cost me, yet again. SAD!"
Despite insisting she had no more to add to the conversation and had "nothing further to say to transphobes in my comments", Jamil was coaxed back into the debate on Thursday when a follower asked her if she had indeed cancelled the interview because Owens had tweeted "only women can give birth", and if that then meant "my biology degree is a degree in bigotry?""She used her 2 million strong platform to belittle an innocent young trans couple having a baby.
"Your obsession with other people's genders, is a sign you are unhappy in your own life, and need a target to point your fear and rage at," she added. "So you pick on innocent people just getting on with their lives. Just mind your f--king business and clean up your own mess. #TransLivesMatter" She used her 2 million strong platform to belittle an innocent young trans couple having a baby. Inciting mocking and hatred. So she can’t come on my podcast. I’m down to talk to those with opposing views, but willful bullies are not welcome on my platform. Not sorry.
