Can art be deemed offensive? Or does it get a free pass as it’s all about the interpretation? More on the blatant attempt to erase the female sex with this article featuring quite a gross work of ‘art’ and what it symbolizes.
”Last year, Reduxx reported on a Reddit post featuring photos of a trans-identified male user breastfeeding his wife’s newborn baby.
The post, titled “Oh my God I’m breastfeeding my daughter,” detailed how the user worked with a lactation consultant and his gender physician for several months prior to his female partner giving birth. Immediately following the baby’s birth, the user said he had begun breastfeeding the child to supplement formula feedings. The user also included a link to a photo gallery showing snapshots of himself “breastfeeding” the baby.
In 2018, an endocrinologist from Boston Medical Center claimed that breast feeding was an important method of validating a trans-identified male’s gender identity.
In an interview with The New Scientist, Dr. Joshua Safer said: “Many transgender women are looking to have as many of the experiences of non-transgender women as they can, so I can see this will be extremely popular.”
Reports of trans-identified males seeking support from lactation consultant have increased. On social media, many new and breastfeeding mothers have also stated they’ve noticed an increase in men attending breastfeeding groups.”

“…many new and breastfeeding mothers have also stated they’ve noticed an increase in men attending breastfeeding groups.”
Well, it’s one method for a bloke to assess potential mates. Can’t imagine it’s too successful, though.
The thing is, there’s much talk of the erasing of the female sex and our role within society because of the trans activists and all who enable this ideology to wield such power, but what about the erasing of males? I don’t think a man preening and parading around in front of a camera wearing a dress and covered in slap does a great deal to strengthen the image and concept of masculinity either. Seems to me that rather than men placing the blame for how society is evolving into something seriously deranged and unrecognizable at the foot of feminists/women, it couldn’t be more apparent where said blame ought to be placed. Both men and women face a common enemy and that enemy is the trans loons, who are dead set on causing division and blurring the distinction between the two sexes out of existence. They don’t want equality they want dominance.
It wouldn’t last 5mins in many parts of the world.
And I do wonder how a statue like in the article would be received in countries, such as those in South America, where machismo is as alive and well as ever!
The people who fund,support,direct and protect the transvestite terrorists are our real enemies: without them the trannies would just be a midly irritating bunch of charmless inadequates.
Rich people with way more money than brains doing increasingly bizarre stuff to demonstrate to themselves that there’s nothing on this world they can’t buy with their money isn’t really that interesting on its own. It just serves as a reminder that we should really do something to uncorrupt our political and social systems as that’s the attack vector they employ to force us all to take part in their delusions.
On, perhaps, a more sensible note, I find it difficult to imagine why anyone would choose to drink this thin, metallic, dilute weasel piss in the first place.
Ditto most well publicised “popular” lagers in USA, UK, Australia etc.
The introduction of perverts to advertise this bilgewater is just the rancid icing on the filthy cake.
Grow yourself some taste buds and try some honest British bitter. Timothy Taylor’s “Landlord” a fine example. Also some fine Belgian, Czech, German etc beers for a change. Genuine Czech Budweiser Budvar is as different from this “light” American swill at is possible to imagine.
To be fair to Budwiser and Mulvany – he’s had quite an influence on Bud Light consumers.
Just not the one they intended.
Go woke, go broke.
“Bud Light has faced a revolt by conservative activists after partnering with transgender […]”
Sorry daily sceptic, you’ve got this wrong. IMO it should read:
“Bud Light has faced a revolt by conservatives after partnering with transgender […]”
The sales drop is massive and goes far far beyond “conservative activists.”
Who on earth are the ” conservative activists?”
Hopefully ALL conservatives.
Go woke, go broke.
That’s “Get woke, go broke”.
“Bud Light has faced a revolt by conservative activists…”
Why is it only conservatives and activists? Why not just people? In addition ‘activists’ are a particular kind of person that think ‘activism’ is some kind of career, similar to ‘influencers’. And both have a very high unproven regard of themselves.

A very old YouTube grab of a clip from a Simpsons episode seems fitting! As I recall it was from episode where Mulder and Scully from The X-Files appeared.
Mulvaney’s nauseating parody of woman is bad enough but why isn’t anyone commenting on his total disrespect of sport in the ad, something I thought many Americans are particularly passionate about? I’m not sporty in the least yet I thought his comments downright insulting to all sports fans.
Spotted in a local Asda megastore yesterday – untouched stacks of Bud Lite. So it’s not just ‘conservative activists’ in the US. A real LOL moment!
They can just sell it on to the Eurovision venue. I’m sure it’ll go down a storm with its target consumer on the big night.
I used to like hanging out with trannies and deviants generally now I’m not so sure. I would say leave them alone and leave these issues alone. Obviously if they ever threaten you then treat them with full contempt.
Yes I know what you mean and it is important to make the distinction between trans folk who behave like normal people getting on with their lives like anyone else and The Mob, who are the ‘In yer face’, attention-sucking extremists who want to compete in women’s sports and invade their private spaces, brainwash kids into believing there’s 391 genders and pretend they are menstruating so insert a tampon up their bum with the aid of coconut oil. Yes, I wandered onto those videos on a Twitter thread. The former do no harm to anyone but the extremists, they’re like a new breed of bat-shit crazy and most definitely pose a risk to others, especially kids in their formative years and vulnerable people ( autistic young people and those in the mental health system, for example ), who are ripe for manipulation and indoctrination.
Right on the money.
There have always been a very few people who hsd a genuine issue with their sexuality. I think of Jan Morris who was a successful soldier before deciding to live as a woman. That is far as I know. Fabled trip to Casablanca for the “operation’?
Frankly I neither know nor care. But her books on Venice and the Venetian Republic are some of the best written.
But like most people in the same situation, she didn’t find it necessary to make a big song and dance about it or pretend that everyone else were the real “odd ones out”.
I’m all in favour of being kind to people who respond with kindness. But not, I’m afraid to raging perverts.
A valuable and appreciated comment.
Vomit inducing ads are maybe not the best idea for selling products.
I generally take people as they are. I worked on some documentary material about Blaire White some years ago. Blaire – in my head – I tend to think of as female. So I think it boils down to behaviour and how people treat each other by choice. Mulvaney is an over the top parody – a borderline pedo fantasy act pretending to be a little girl. Ten years ago, before such behaviour was politicised as ‘stunning and brave’, he would have been a random weirdo or a low-listed act act a drag act bar no sane person would ever go near..
What all of this reflects is the corporatisation of our lives. Corporations, in conjunction with governments, now sponsor ‘Pride’, for example, and aggressively push ‘diversity’ as a way of displaying their woke credentials. All this has done is pump vast amounts of money into emphasising our differences, dividing our populations into subgroups and making us all see each other as different.
I grew up watching 1960s Star Trek, where multiple races and both sexes worked together and no mention was made about the ethnic differences, because people had got past that and just accepted each other. I thought that was increasingly the world I was living in until – roughly – September 11, 2001 – where the freest states of the world freaked out at a reactionary force that attacked the West by dismantling everything that made us different from that reactionary force. Then the blatant psy-op that is social media came in that decade and swiftly became a way for employers to spy on their staff and governments to spy on citizens – but also allowed orchestrated outrage on an international scale.
And Mulvaney has perhaps emphasised how far askew our societies have drifted. If you don’t like Mulvaney and don’t use his made-up pronouns, you’re called a ‘bigot’ and can lose your career and have your life destroyed, because the state and big business now compel you to use certain words, rather than leave you to your own judgement at how to behave towards each person. Our personal interactions are effectively being policed by an overreaching state, with social media as its not-so-secret police. The Bud Light boycott emphasises the only power citizens have left. Rather than actively fight back, we simply no longer buy something. ‘Do nothing, as long as it’s the right sort of nothing!’
How far we’ve fallen!
Consumer activism swings both ways!
If Dylan Mulvaney wished to identify as a black woman would that be OK too? Dylan could perhaps wear makeup to help with the appearance?
