I wasn't aware that transpeople have, as Glenn Greenwald, who is gay, put it, "catapulted up the ladder of oppression" which has conferred "concrete benefits".
Wha??????
As transwomen, Sheri and I aren't aware of any "concrete benefits" we can take advantage of because we're trans. This is a regurgitation of the "special rights" trope that homophobes used against gay people when they were demanding equal rights that everyone else enjoys.
What the Heck Happened to Glenn Greenwald? Great discussion by Sam Seder and Emma Vigelund. Includes clips of Greenwald. Skip ahead to the 5:55 mark to get to the heart of the discussion.
