It need not be.

Thank you for actually answering. I know about the "people who menstruate" comment and understand why people find it offensive. Do you consider that as her most egregious statement?

I was really hoping to avoid the standard "hey I googled this random article" and expected something more substantive. For example, a quoted statement or tweet.

Considering that you you have obviously already read the article, is it possible for you to produce a quote where you consider her being particularly hateful?

There's not need to be hostile. It's an honest question that I am asking in good faith.

Has she ever said anything that crosses your personal threshold of overt hate? If so, what was it?

Every time she comes up it's always underlined that she is super transphobic. However, it's never been really clear to me what things she has said to acquire such a status. Whenever this is asked there is usually someone linking some two hour YouTube theory about goblin or a massive article that always feels quite tangential. If one is to be so notorious; wouldn't it be a little bit more overt?

What did she say?
