No One Is Safe From The Alphabet Mafia, Not Even Aretha Franklin

Update: This group now claims to be satire.

Aretha Franklin’s song, “Natural Woman” has now been deemed offensive by the transgender community.  This insanity has got to stop. 

There is an activist group in Norway campaigning for the song to be removed from Apple Music and Spotify.  Which of course just makes me want to listen to on repeat 24/7.  In case you were wondering, this song came out in 1968.  So before most of these wackadoodles were born.  Why are we getting mad about a song that is 55 years old?  Aren’t these people sick of being outraged by every little thing?  They cannot be a happy bunch.

According to Trans Cultural Mindfulness Alliance, “There is no such thing as a natural woman.” Ummm…very basic biology begs to differ. They also stated, “The song has helped inspire acts of harm against transgender women.”  I was not aware a song could be so violent.

This is not satire.  We are not being punk’d.  This is real life.

The one thing that gives me hope is that every response to the tweet I saw was making fun of them. So at least there’s that.

Same, Mikey. Same.

After a bunch of backlash, the group changed their profile to state they were a satire/parody group. Which it may be. However, there is also this tweet.

They also tweet this:

So whether they state to be satire or not, I’m not sure I believe them. This was an incredibly horrific and disgusting story, and to make light of it, or state that it was only receiving attention because of same sex couple bigotry is not funny even in the slightest. This story deserves attention because children were exploited for sex. Period.

It should also be noted that this account was created in 2009, but posts don’t begin until January 20 of this year. Which makes me think there were prior tweets that got deleted.

I am still unsure if this is actually a parody, but after seeing them defend the above story, I don’t have a good feeling about them. But please, discuss in the comments. Because I am curious to see what you all think of this account. Real or parody?

    Call me crazy but I would think Natural Woman would be an anthem for transwomen everywhere because what could possibly be better for someone with gender dysphoria than to find a lover who makes them feel like something they’re not?

    Yeah right, I heard that song today and was immediately inspired to go out and “hate” trans people. (sarc)
    Yeah right, they must have some idea what a “natural” woman is, why else would they want to get the bottom surgery??

      What’s next, deeming Lou Rawls’ soul classic, “(Like A) Natural Man” offensive because “there’s no such thing as a natural man”?

      Actually, the LGBTQITXYZ community loves Shania. She’s got quite the following from that community. So the answer is yes….they DO love her.

        Damn it! They are so crazy, I can’t even make fun of them.
