This video, man. The arrogant assumption from the male questioner that they were going to be good accommodating little girls and gush over how empowering it was to have a male ogre lumbering in to cheat at their competition. The long silence. The way none of them challenged the speaker, so that you know they all feel the same way. That answer.
It's even more brutal when you see the longer cut and see how graceful and kind she is when talking about an actual female competitor.
It is ironic that this competition probably gave Laurel one of the only actual 'female' experiences he will ever have: the experience of being frozen out by a group of superficially polite females who are nevertheless able to make it indirectly clear that they cannot stand you.
People are also talking about Laurel's late entrance to the event and the way he apparently pushes the women standing there aside, and framing it as arrogance and male aggression, but I wonder: You have to push other people out the way like that if they won't step aside and give you room, and 'pretending not to notice the troon coming up behind you who needs space' is prime female bullying behaviour. Is there a word for positive bullying? There should be. When you're forced to allow men into your spaces, and can't vocally protest because you will be piled on by TRAs, bullying might be the only option you have left. Constant little petty bullshit, without anything direct enough to give the invader either proof or the satisfaction of seeing you upset. Finding your inner 14-year-old. If troons want to be teenage girls and experience female puberty so bad, let them deal with some fucking mean girls.
