You guys are being unnecessarily vile to that Uncle Waffles kid. She’s just a child making big big moves man, please let her be.
Imagine being 21 and having to deal with Internet bullies, nxi.

The DJ responded to her tormenters by saying she does not have to prove her gender because of her physique.
She wrote: “Instead you’re trying to bring down people who have nothing to do with this. I now have to prove my gender based on my physique and based on a rumour? You guys are so weird.”
Real question. What do these picture prove? Instead you’re trying to bring down people who have nothing to do with this. I now have to prove my gender based off of my physique and based off of a rumour? You guys are so weird. https://t.co/fSXPQ6MwXa

You can’t always have something to say. I’m a proud ally of the trans community, always have been. Yall, without fail will always have something to say.

Let’s also remember that just cause someone is a public figure doesn’t make them your friend. Singajwayelani emasimba
