The woman in the bathroom is trans and is scared that if she comes out of the stall the women that walked in will insult or harass her. but when she comes out they compliment her on her dress instead. The add ends with saying “stress tested for women.” It means Secret is including trans women in their definition of women.
I have reblogged this three times now, each one mentioning the fact that Secret not only included a trans woman, but that they /had the other women compliment her dress and treat her with respect/. I will reblog this every time I see it because it’s so important. More companies should involve trans people in their marketing – we do exist. Props to Secret for getting in on this movement. It makes me really happy to see more of the trans community represented in daily television.
When I was 16, the father of the boy I was dating grounded his son for “dating a boy” and threatened to run me over with his car. The boy’s family shunned or harassed me online because they thought I was “tricking” him. His friends told him that he was confused. This language isn’t just a slur but also shapes our everyday lives as transgender women.
