Charlotte ClymerRon DeSantis is getting a lot of criticism for wearing heel lifts in his boots, adding several inches to his height, ostensibly to avoid being emasculated, and I just want him and his team to know that I support the governor's right to gender-affirming practices.
Dudula the Dud@charlotteclymer I approve of emasculating him.
British Tech Guru@charlotteclymer When is he coming out as transgender?

Gender affirmation is for everyone, not just trans folk, is the point I think.

@samadeleine @charlotteclymer I was taking that as De Santis being anti-trans and yet wearing heels with hidden lifts inside his boots, giving him the same height boost as if he;d been wearing 4" stilettoes. Quite the hypocrite and I wonder whether he wears lingerie in private.
@britishtechguru @charlotteclymer While it's a common joke to accuse homophobes and transphobes of being closeted queer people, it can also be a little distasteful too, as if to suggest that homophobia and transphobia are entirely the fault of the LGBT community. I for one am not particularly eager to embrace DeSantis as a member of the trans community, thanks.
Most trans women of my acquaintance don't want to appear taller, and if they do wear heels it is to emphasize their legs. Meanwhile, many short men have tried to increase their height (or perceived height) in order to appear more masculine—i.e. to affirm their gender. I don't see any particular connection between wearing lifts and being trans. Perhaps you are thinking of crossdressing doms?
It is well established that sexuality does not exist as a series of fixed points. Gender has apparent fixed points but really does not. For those that would deny that statement I would suggest reading up on hermaphrodism.
It is entertaining to insult somebody with ridiculous views such as De Santis by calling him that which he hates.
The thought of catching De Santis out in such a lie is too delicious to resist. I hope images surface of him crossdressing.
@britishtechguru @charlotteclymer Not so entertaining to this trans woman. But have fun.

@charlotteclymer @scottjshapiro What it comes down to is that DeSantis is a fraud - in little things as in large things.
Dishonesty about something as trivial as his height suggests a willingness to be dishonest about... well, pretty much anything.
I should think we were all well sick and tired of patent phonies, after four years of Donald F. Trump.
Pax Ahimsa GethenSome cis guys have gone so far as to have surgical limb-lengthening procedures to gain a couple of inches of height.

Martin@funcrunch @charlotteclymer hmm, a quick easy way to get my BMI down?
J.H.Noyes@charlotteclymer I think he's an evil little gnome, hence the feud with Disney.

coupland@charlotteclymer I agree completely. If Mr. DeSantis wants to wear heels to feel pretty I fully support him. :)

This is hysterical - I hope he sees it! Thanks!
(He's just emulating his oh-so-masculine role model... TFG has worn built-up shoes for a long time, and we ALL know what a stud muffin he is!) 🤢🤮💩

Smitty@charlotteclymer its that his wife is a giant like Herman Munster but looks like Eddie Munster. Anything to distract from that!

Heel lifts and those white hurricane boots combined with how aggressively he pursues male-affirming policies makes me suspect he's got an interesting closet or chest somewhere.

Priscilla Feral@charlotteclymer I don’t care if he wears heels as it’s his degrading social policies and rhetoric that are despicable, not a struggle for height.
