Jennifer Aniston on abortion laws, "I repeat, No Uterus, No Opinion"
Can you believe this disgusting person? What is this saying to the trans community? She obviously didn't get the memo gender is a social construct and that men can be women.
How is that transphobic? Trans men have a uterus and trans women don't.
You either hate Jennifer Aniston, you are the closet transphope, or you disagree with abortion.
Why even post this? 🤷‍♀️
So what you're saying is trans women aren't actually real women because they don't have a uterus and therefore are to be excluded from discussion with real women?

My point is, she says "no uterus, no opinion" .... trans men have a uterus so they get to have a say. Trans women and men don't.
What she said is not transphobic.
So what you're saying is trans women aren't actually women?
shareNo, that's what you are trying to imply. That's like saying my female friend who had a hysterectomy isn't a woman as she has no uterus.
A uterus doesn't make you a woman.
If you're born a woman you'll die a woman. If you're born a man you'll die a man. No matter how much you mangle your body along the way.
shareYou're missing the point...
So your friend that's had a hysterectomy isn't allowed an opinion too?
You're stretching.
Nothing she said here is transphobic. As Otter said, her statement includes trans men. Aniston isn't saying that trans women aren't women. She's saying that only *some* women (i.e. those with uteruses) get to have a say on abortion.
FWIW, I don't entirely agree with her. I get her point, but I also know a lot of men, myself included, who are far more progressive and supportive of pro-choice rights than some women are (e.g. Amy Coney-Barrett). SCOTUS was entirely dominated by male Justices when it first heard Roe v Wade, so, whilst Aniston's argument might be right *in principle* (i.e. why should men get to decide on something that doesn't directly affect them?) in practice many men are more feminist and liberal about abortion access than a lot of (mostly conservative) women.
Wooosh. I'm clearly mocking her.
You can't change gender. End of.
'Mocking her'?
Why? Has she made any vocal statements about trans people?
"Her statement includes trans men"
That would be a woman.
Well, I don't know for sure what Aniston's views of trans people are. I wouldn't be surprised if they're on public record, but at this juncture I can't be sure. All I know is that taken at face-value, there's nothing to say that her statement "I repeat, No Uterus, No Opinion", is 'transphobic.
And just as you're entitled to your opinion regarding trans people, I'm entitled to mine.
If Trump said the same thing "I repeat, No Uterus, No Opinion", do you think anyone would claim that was transphobic?
shareTrump would never say the thing, because he thinks men have a right to tell women what to do with their bodies.
sharePlease answer my question.
shareHe'd never say such a thing, so the context makes no sense.
shareLet's imagine he did. The fact you refuse to answer this hypothetical question tells me your answer anyway. That yes, it would be considered transphobic.
shareNo, I don't think it would, because for him to say something like this, he'd have to be thinking along the same lines as Jennifer Aniston is here, and what Aniston said was 'feminist', not 'transphobic'.
FWIW, I don't even entirely agree with Aniston; yes, it is an issue that specifically concerns women who have a uterus, but many men can be allies and supportive on this issue, and clearly it's not just men who are behind the 'pro-life'/anti-abortion movement. But there's NOTHING intrinsically transphobic about this statement, and I suspect that would apply if, somehow, Trump were to say such a thing (but since he's anti-abortion, that seems incredibly unlikely, hence why your question, which I've nonetheless endeavoured to answer, is so absurd and moot).
As a man cannot ever have a uterus, she is saying that trans women aren't women. That is transphobic to some.
shareTrans "men" are not really men.
shareI hadn't heard this before. It might be time to mobilize the troops on Twitter and teach her a lesson in tolerance.
shareThey really can't even keep up with their own nonsense, lol!
shareNo gun, no opinion. I like her logic
shareYeah. Exactly. Where do you draw the line. Non gun owners shouldn't be able to have a say on firearm laws?
shareNot remotely the same.
The actions of gun-owners affect the rest of us. Plus, owning a gun is a choice.
The choice of a woman to abort a fetus affects herself, and pretty much herself alone, and having a uterus is not a choice.
Gender is a choice. That's the point of trans.
shareMore importantly in the USA, everyone has the right to voice an opinion (AKA 1st amendment). You have the right to disagree with someone else's opinion (which would be your opinion). The right to have an opinion and speak it freely should be an international right. Are you telling us you don't agree? Or that only opinions you are agree with are allowed?
shareThe actions of trans women affect others. See trans women raping actual women, destroying women's sports etc.
shareNo. She's also effecting the baby she murdered.
shareThe comment was clearly targeted towards men, but clearly people would rather virtue signal about trans people than defend men.
shareShe didn’t say anything about transgenders. She’s supporting actual women.
shareYou appear to have missed my point. If this statement had come from someone else, it would no doubt be considered trans phobic as men that think they're women obviously don't have a uterus but the MSM thinks that society considers them a woman.
shareSociety doesn’t. Only a few delusional people do. If I have pointed ears grafted onto my head, it doesn’t make me a Vulcan. I can “identify” myself as one, but I’m no more a Vulcan than men who cut off their penises are women. It’s all fantasy.
shareExactly. It's all being pushed in the MSM as if people in general support this nonsense but they don't. Take a look at the comments and likes/dislikes on the comments of articles on places like MSN.com. They get absolutely ratio'd by dislikes and generally have to turn comments off when there is zero support for whatever trans nonsense they're trying to push.
The media are trying to gaslight people into thinking society is fully behind these people with mental illnesses but it's not. It's just a very small % of people that are very vocal and have a lot of funding.
