“The same people that call me a womanizer, abuser, and bigot are the same people that support the ideology that trans can have periods and support tampon companies making trans the spokesperson. It’s extremely offensive to all women, to mock their biology. stop pretending this is okay”

Amid some backlash, Radke also brought race into the matter:
Cool I identify as a black man, do I get my reparations now? https://t.co/gijs4MNMlX

It’s not a completely different thing, you need the respect the fact that I identify as a black man if you want me to respect you identify as a woman, you aren’t allowed to pick and choose. https://t.co/DfV3t3YQTu

So you are saying I can’t choose to identify with whatever I want? But you are allowed to? That’s transphobic. https://t.co/gefXUhu05a

I identify as a good person because of how many people I have helped quietly financially, emotionally and spiritually, but y’all say I’m a bad person so ALL of you are literally transphobic, bigot pieces of shit for assuming the wrong identify of me and I will not tolerate it https://t.co/I2dwwlnTHj
