She’s been swept up in the fear mongering hysteria that’s all over the UK media atm. 

It's been very, very effective.

 

Transphobia over here is pretty much mainstream.

 

If that's really her - very disappointing. Hopefully her fans clock her.

No one wants to wake up to the news I woke up to this evening. No one. I was waking up from my depression nap, turning on my wifi and the first thing I read is "Roisin Murphy debuts transphobia". I blinked my eyes countless times and I went on Facebook just to make sure it was her. I couldn’t believe it. My Hit Parade dream was over and there I was at 7PM sitting in my bedroom looking at the screen of my cracked Android phone...

Hated her the moment she shared that she wraps vegetables in candy wrappers for her kids

That and attacking Robyn for working with Braulio Amado

[supaspaz]

A British person being transphobic? I’m shocked.

She isn’t British! That’s why this is so sad!

[modern thing]

If the post is recent, what exactly would she say?  

[The7thStranger]

Give me back my queer dollars, Roisin.

[POPTART]

Why am I not surprised.

 

Let me keep it cute on this one, but let's just say I have certain information on how rude and entitled she can be.

The Roisin Murphy is not transphobic pls.  She is one of the community’s staunchest allies, the community including trans and non-binary people. God forbid the opinions of a straight white woman in her 50s don’t align exactly with those of people half her age who grew up online and in a nearly opposite social climate from hers. A negative opinion of a singular course of treatment which wasn’t accessible or even considered for most of her lifetime does not equate to trans exclusionary radical feminism. She should know better so by all means be disappointed in her. She can get educated for sure, but y’all need to realize that most people in the real world cannot turn their opinions on and off, switching between ways of thinking on a yearly basis the way the culture makes it seem. She may be a big mouth old crone but you can’t question her allegiance to the LGBT community.

This would be fine and all but then this ambiguity of such stances lead to people feeling emboldened in posting dumb ass hot takes like:

Would you rather them just k*ll themselves? Because that’s the alternative a lot of trans youth take.

 

Besides, it doesn’t and shouldn’t have anything to do with you. Them, their parents, and their doctor are the only relevant people in making that decision.

[Shimenawa]

Yeah I don't believe she is transphobic but she must think you must be a certain age before making the decision to transition. That is not transphobia

That part!

[SecretSecret]

Not all the transphobic f*gs in this forum getting brave all of a sudden  If you don't know sh*t about how medical transition actually works, or your sources are some right wing newspaper, we really don't need to be subjected to your ignorant opinions.

[Pendulum]

She hasn't put up any good music since Overpowered so good riddance

Clearly her publicly posting her opposition to trans healthcare, running with the narrative that TERF is a slur against women and co-signing Glinner shows she isn’t, so glad we cleared that up
