slave owners used to say the same thing about their slaves. it was used as “justification” to make women do the same hard labor they made then men do. it’s not just surface level transphobia, but deeply rooted racism
This! And this goes with any side, based on the original sneakily rhetorically reframed action, or any side that reacted as they saw fit based on available information

White slave owners went farther than this. They completely dehumanized the black woman in a way that the black men weren’t necessarily. Treating them like animals that they raped, abused, kept, etc.
