Yeah, whenever I see someone say Yaniv's not a real trans person, or doesn't represent trans people, or whatever, I just want to say:
I KNOW. Yeah, obviously. The issue is that someone can be this level of Snidely Whiplash-in-a-dress with the social skills of Cartman and the enlightened views and litigiousness of Fred Phelps, all while sharing child pornography with underage girls to groom them and threatening teenagers who said they'd tell an adult about his inappropriate questions about tampons, and still get away with it for literal years, and even make a tidy profit off of suing hardworking immigrant women in the meantime.
The issue isn't even so much Yaniv himself, it's a system that kept saying "yes" to his insane demands. Like, if this guy's online history and footprint aren't enough to get him locked away and made a complete pariah to everyone in the LGBT community, there's no way in hell anyone's going to stand up for women who, say, complain that a trans woman flashed their feminine penis at them in the bathroom. If people can even come close to excusing Yaniv's conduct, they're hanging a sign on themselves that says "I think fetishists are more important than sexual harassment victims."
