Yeah, trans women are not subject to the "patriarchal male gaze", I can assure you. They're all dogs who still look like men.
By being nude in an ad, Sydney Sweeney is objectifying herself, setting back women's sports, and destroying what women have worked so hard to accomplish.
Women have forever been objectified to the patriarchal male gaze.
This includes trans women, and even more so with trans women who we all believe belong in women's sports just like all other women.
If anything, their advanced physical capabilities will only help their team win.
Yes, they may seriously injure other women, but that's not the focus here.
Women in recent history have fought the patriarchal male gaze through things like sex work and showing off their nude bodies at fashion shows and in many publications.
Rihanna had many majority nude women show off very skimpy lingerie, and was a hero for it because her show didn't cater to the male gaze.
People like Ashley Graham and Amanda Bingson were heroes for showing off their majority nude bodies because they showed us body diversity and that fat is beautiful.
Emily Ratajkowski fought the patriarchy by displaying her nude body to the world and is a hero because she showed that us women are more than just our bodies, and that it doesn't mean that we have to be shamed for them.
Brittney Griner showed off her nude body and is a hero for doing so.
The difference in this case is that it's Sydney Sweeney, so she must be doing it for the male gaze and not to fight the patriarchy as well as not to push for trans women to play in women's sports.
