Nancy Mace calls Sarah McBride it in unhinged transphobic tirade
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC)has tripled down on her transphobic hysteria on cable television, misgendering Rep.-elect Sarah McBride (D-DE), discussing her genitals, and claiming that McBride will assault her if she ever enters a womens bathroom in the Capitol. Her former communications director has said Maces hysteria is simply a ploy to gain media notoriety.Numerous web commenters have noted that, despite her worries about assault, Mace hasnt spoken as passionately against President-elect Donald Trump, who was found liable of sexually abusing a woman in a womens changing room, or of former-Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Trumps attorney general pick who has been accused of raping an underage girl at a drug-fueled sex party.

Mace said, referring to McBride as it. She was born a man! Shes a man! She is biologically a male. That is science.When asked whether she believed McBride poses some kind of danger to Mace and other women in Congress, Mace replied, Absolutely! 100%. This is an assault on women, a man being a biological man, a man with a penis, male genitalia being in a womens locker room is an assault on women. Hes got a mental illness and this is why hes doing this.On Wednesday, Mace introduced a resolution to ban trans people from using bathrooms matching their gender identity in federal buildings nationwide. On the same day, Natalie Johnson, Maces former communications director, pointed out that, in March 2021, Mace posted a comment on X (then-Twitter)declaring, I strongly support LGBTQ rights. No one should be discriminated against. Religious liberty, gay rights, and transgender equality can all coexist. Johnson wrote, If you think [Maces] bill is about protecting women and not simply a ploy to get on Fox News, youve been fooled, and added, I dont want to see your botched, cheap hooker-inspired boob job on my television. Can we introduce a bill to bar that?True to Johnsons prediction, Mace did appear on Fox News last night where she thanked House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) for publicly announcingthat all single-sex restrooms, changing rooms, and locker rooms in the Capitol buildings are reserved for individuals whose biological sex matches them. His announcement followed threats from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) to beat up McBride if she tried toaccess womens spaces in the Capitol.I am proud to be a woman and today women won, Mace said on Fox. This is a huge womens rights issue, and I am eternally grateful to Speaker Johnson for coming to our defense and making the right call, making the right decision and my concern is making it cemented. At the end of the day there has to be a line in the sand, Mace added. You cant allow penises in the locker room, she said, despite not knowing anything about McBrides genitals. Men cant watch women change clothes. Like thats just never going to be a thing and women have rights. So, look, at what point do mens rights trample on womens rights? They cant, they wont, they never will. In a statement issued Wednesday, McBride wrote, I will follow the rules as outlined by Speaker Johnson, even if I disagree with them. Three LGBTQ+ Congress members blasted Johnson and Mace on Wednesday, calling Johnsons rule cruel and unnecessary and calling Maces rhetoric vile and disgusting.Subscribe to theLGBTQ Nation newsletterand be the first to know about the latest headlines shaping LGBTQ+ communities worldwide.
