Controversy ensued.
Controversy erupted as Dylan Mulvaney’s photos sparked a flurry of comments on social media. Among the barrage of negativity were remarks such as, “This is so degrading to REAL women,” and “You will always be a man,” reflecting the pervasive transphobia still present in society.
However, amidst the hate, voices of support emerged, with individuals emphasizing the importance of inclusivity and acceptance. One commenter stated, “These comments are truly horrendous, TRANS WOMAN ARE WOMAN. So, therefore, they should celebrate themselves as well as other women on International Women’s Day.”
Another defender proudly proclaimed, “I’m a ‘real woman’ and I’m not offended in the slightest! I am proud that these two women are supporting other women! Love is the only thing that can extinguish hate!“
She has talked about her facial feminization surgery.
The journey of self-discovery is beautifully illuminated by Dylan’s courageous transparency by sharing her experience as a trans woman. Recently, she unveiled the profound results of her facial feminization surgery, a poignant milestone in her journey towards self-realization.
In a heartfelt message accompanying the reveal, she articulated her profound desire for every trans individual to experience the same sense of affirmation and confidence when they gaze into the mirror. Her words resonate as a powerful testament to the universal quest for self-acceptance and the unwavering belief in the right to define one’s own identity.
Lady Gaga defended Dylan Mulvaney.
Lady Gaga took a bold stand in defense of Dylan Mulvaney and the transgender community, expressing her dismay at the vitriolic response to their National Women’s Day post. In an Instagram statement, Gaga condemned the hateful comments as acts of violence, refusing to label them as mere “backlash.”
She continued “I feel it is important to clarify that hatred is hatred, and this kind of hatred is violence.” She highlighted the ongoing struggle for transgender acceptance and emphasized the need for society to cherish and uphold transgender lives. Gaga’s protective stance extended beyond Mulvaney to encompass the entire trans community, praising their resilience in the face of relentless discrimination and violence.
Gaga wrote “I hope all women will come together to honor us ALL for International Women’s Day, and may we do that always until THE DAY that all women are celebrated equally. That all people are celebrated equally. A day where people of all gender identities are celebrated on whichever holiday speaks to them. Because people of all gender identities and races deserve peace and dignity.”
The singer added “May we all come together and be loving, accepting, warm, welcoming. May we all stand and honor the complexity and challenge of trans life—that we do not know, but can seek to understand and have compassion for. I love people too much to allow hatred to be referred to as “backlash.” People deserve better.”
Lady Gaga’s recent paparazzi snapshot has set tongues wagging and hearts racing as speculation about a possible engagement reaches fever pitch. In the candid photo, Gaga is spotted sporting a dazzling ring, instantly igniting a whirlwind of rumors about her romantic life.

The flight attendant approached me and requested: “Please remain seated after we land; the pilot would like to speak with you personally”
I thought my big business trip to Los Angeles would be just another day at work, but a strange request from the pilot changed everything about my past and future. My flight was supposed to be smooth, but during the two-hour journey, everything shifted. I’m an architect at a well-known firm, living my dream job after years of hard work and sleepless nights in college.
Recently, my boss gave me a chance to present a major project to investors in LA, which could lead to a long-awaited promotion. I was excited not just for the opportunity but also to make my mother, Melissa, proud. She raised me as a single parent and has always supported my dreams, even after telling me my father passed away before I was born.
After saying goodbye to Mom, I boarded the plane and settled into my seat, ready for takeoff. The flight attendants were friendly, and I was lucky to have an empty seat beside me. As the plane climbed, I felt hopeful about my presentation.
A little while into the flight, a cheerful flight attendant named Bethany approached me with drinks. When I asked for orange juice, she suddenly requested my passport. I found it odd but handed it to her. After a brief inspection, she returned it, explaining it was just a routine check.
Later, she returned and informed me that the pilot wanted to speak with me after we landed. I was puzzled about why he needed to talk and felt anxious about my tight schedule. Bethany insisted it was important, so I decided to wait.
When we landed and the cabin cleared, a tall man with graying hair walked toward me. My heart raced as I recognized him from old photos my mom had shown me; this was Steve, her childhood friend. He looked emotional as he hugged me tightly, tears streaming down his face.
Confused, I wondered what was happening. He pulled back and revealed a birthmark on his wrist that was identical to mine. Then he told me he was my father. My mind raced with disbelief. Mom had never mentioned him. Steve explained that he hadn’t known about me until years later when a friend told him. He shared how my mother had left without telling him she was pregnant, fearing he would give up his dreams for us. Hearing this shattered my understanding of my past, and I felt a strong need to confront my mother.
I called her immediately and asked why she never told me about Steve. Mom’s voice trembled as she finally explained everything. She thought she was protecting him by leaving, believing he would be better off without her.
Listening to their emotional conversation left me reeling. I had grown up believing my father was gone, only to discover he was alive and here with me now. I was torn between shock and anger at my mom’s choices.
Then, as I explained my important meeting to Steve, his expression changed. He revealed that he knew the investors very well from his time flying their private jet and could help me get in front of them. He quickly made calls and arranged for me to meet them that day.
Thanks to Steve, my meeting went even better than I expected. The investors were impressed with my project and agreed to fund it. To top it off, I received a call from my boss offering me the promotion I had hoped for. Afterward, Steve greeted me with open arms, proud of my success. I realized that this man, who was once a stranger, now played a vital role in my life.
The following week, Steve visited our house to meet Mom. It was an emotional reunion filled with tears and laughter, making me feel whole for the first time. That night, as I lay in bed, I marveled at how a routine flight had turned into the discovery of my father. This unexpected twist made me feel grateful for the future and the family I had finally begun to know.
