like its literally the first line in your quote how do you not see that?


On the subject of May, she's perfectly within her right to be upset cause Winslow was being pretty insensitive. Body is an important subject for everyone, and when you're stuck in a body that doesn't work right and that you could change, but lack the resources to do so, that really sucks. It's makes life hard, and to be confronted by someone who changed their body in all the ways you want to, just because they felt like it, I can understand being upset over it. She was super rude about it, but that doesn't invalidate her point.

But how Winslow reacted after is the correct way to act when people call you out on things like this. Humbly, and looking for how to make it better, whether specifically with that person, or in general. Doubling down and getting mad at the person calling you out accomplishes nothing.
