An American man who identifies as a “transgender lesbian” is seeking to have his marriage recognized as one of the first lesbian marriages in Japan, where same-sex marriages have not yet been legalized. Elin McCready, 49, whose birth name is Eric, also has a history which involves harassing the owner of a lesbian club for denying him admission to a women-only event.
Has Eric retained his block and tackle? If so, how can he possibly identify as female - let alone as a lesbian woman? When will this gender-bending madness end!
Genevieve, thank you again for incredible reporting. I'm curious what you may have read or heard about Midori's perspective in all this. I wonder what her livelihood is, other than his job. Does she have options, with three kids and hubby now deciding he's female?
I feel terrible for the lesbians being harassed in Tokyo, especially the bar owner being slandered, and her business, her livelihood and investment, her dedication to the lesbian community and her human rights as a woman and lesbian being attacked. It must be really frightening for all the women, their space under attack.
These woman-hating, narcissistic men who literally want to wear our skins, will stop at nothing to eradicate women's rights.
Remarkable. And, as a psychologist, I have the sense that these instances are driven more by narcissistic personality disorder than gender issues. Thank you for this essay. Sincerely, Frederick
Here we are. Back in the world of make believe. A fantasy land where men pretend to be women and we are supposed to believe this? What about my rights? If it wasn’t for lesbian women and gay men who fought valiantly for the right to be heard, trans people would not have a leg to stand on. True trans people live their lives quietly and peacefully in the background shaking their heads at people like Eric McCready. HE needs to wake up to reality and move on...in silence.
She’s already married to this bloke who is the father of her three children. So now he claims to be a woman, she is presumably legally an unmarried mother . That’s no joke in Japan.

They can never leave women alone. Leave lesbians alone jfc

It’s his ‘wife’ I feel sorry for.

Lesbians cannot be allowed to have anything without men, women cannot be allowed to have anything without men

Seriously, though, in a cage fight to determine which group cries more often, who would win: transwomen or sister wives?
Goldfinger. Heh heh.
