To make a costume out of a marginalized identity reduces that person and community to a stereotype for privileged people to abuse. In this case, if you follow through with production of a Caitlyn Jenner costume, cisgender people will purchase it to make fun of her and our community.
Or maybe that Caitlyn Jennercostume is offensive bc trans people are killed everyday and cis people get to wear a costume like nothing?
The Gay Burn Book So, if the Halloween industry believes it will be a hot seller so be it. They are capitalizing off of Jenner. If some are “offended” sorry. How many public figures have been stalked, been the butt of jokes, and then there are the tabloids. It comes with the job. You cannot dictate good taste. Paintings of the Virgin Mary covered in dung is “art” right?
Oh so you are wondering what cisgender is? It’s not in the Webster dictionary yet, its a new term defined:
denoting or relating to a person whose self-identity conforms with the gender that corresponds to their biological sex; not transgender.
Huh? Sometimes there are no words, for what a word means. New accessory came out today- Libs lost it over the wig, that they say, is just going too far!
