In a second, the model wears makeup, an Indian dress with a bra-like blue top and matching skirt, and lots of jewels,\u201d Ben Shapiro\u2019s Daily Wire\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/bride-magazine-puts-hairy-man-in-dress-on-latest-cover?utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=dwbrand\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In captions alongside the photographs which appeared on Instagram, the woke publisher announced that it had \u201cthe audacity to embrace authenticity\u201d \u2013 whatever that means.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reason LGBTQI+ people are hunted is because we have the audacity to embrace authenticity and autonomy in a world that prescribes conformity. People take their own insecurities and project them at us. If they were secure in themselves, they wouldn\u2019t seek to deny and disappear us. In other words: the continued discrimination against our community is an indication of the mental health struggle of our non-LGBTQI peers,\u201d one caption\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CrU6Vd5Ls8z\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">began<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s needed then is the promotion of positive mental health for all. What\u2019s needed is the creation of a culture tied together with love, not shame,\u201d the Brides Today\u2019s cover model stated.<\/p>\n<p>In a second post, ALOK writes about supposedly living in fear simply from walking in the street and facing constant threats of \u201cbeing attacked.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been bullied my entire life. I wish I could be able to walk down the street\u2014and exist in public\u2014without fear of being attacked. I wish I could post an image of myself online without being inundated with hate mail. I wish I could be seen as a human being\u2026 But I\u2019m not going to wait for that future, I\u2019m going to build it now, here, with the people who are ready for love,\u201d the \u201cgender non-conforming and trans-feminine\u201d person\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CrV-QGavc98\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope that we dream beyond tolerance towards meaningful acceptance. I hope that we are able to find beauty and pride in our differences. I hope that we are not just safe, but well, and not just seen, but witnessed. Most of all: I hope that we can be free,\u201d the activist added.<\/p>\n<p>ALOK identifies with the pronouns they\/them and works under the hashtag #degenderfashion, according to an Instagram profile. Photographs for the covers can be seen in the links provided in the quotes.<\/p>\n<p>Comments were not particularly kind to the hairy model.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChewbacca in a dress that\u2019s what I see,\u201d one person wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeems to be a cooperation with #budlight I don\u2018t care about how anyone wants to live his life, but this is simply misogynistic. And one should think that women are your customers. Weird,\u201d said another.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s sad when mental illness is championed and not helped. Transgenderism is a social experiment and mental illness. To glorify it any other way is delusional. Sadly, it is an attack against women by disturbed and hateful men. It is degrading to women and acceptance of this degradation is a liberal virus and by no means tolerance,\u201d added another comment.<\/p>\n<p>Featured image: Instagram, ALOK<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LGBT colonialism prompted one of the latest bizarre stories of the week, this time originating in India where a quite hirsute biological male squeezed into a bridal dress and graced the covers of a presumably traditional women\u2019s magazine.
