Look in any thread on one of the popular lemmy instances that concerns Trump women and you will see tons of libs unleashing their internalized misogyny and body shaming bullshit
If you call them out on it they get so offended too. Like “how dare you imply I disrespect women? Me, the person who literally just posted about how one of the Trump ladies was so pretty before her “mar a lago face” and then went on a paragraph rant about her current appearance with the rhetoric of a schoolyard bully”
I think you are correct though that they won’t dogpile on cross dressing but merely because they conflate it with LGBT identities which makes them terrified to comment and potentially appear homophobic (misogyny is fine though, didn’t you see that South Park episode)
