Commenting on a bill allowing death certificates to reflect the expressed gender identity of the decedent, Devin Nunes, a Republican representative for California’s 22nd District, has posted an image insulting to the transgender community on his official Congressional website
Commenting on a bill allowing death certificates to reflect the expressed gender identity of the decedent, Devin Nunes [pictured below], a Republican representative for California’s 22nd District, has posted an image insulting to the transgender community on his official Congressional website, reports Queerlandia.
The post on Nunes’s blog, which appears to have since been deleted, included an image of Johnny Depp portraying the title character in Tim Burton’s biopic Ed Wood. Wood was an actor, writer, director and producer who is best known for his B-movies including “Glen or Glenda” and “Plan 9 From Outer Space.”
Wood was open about both cross dressing and his interest in drag.
According to Queerlandia, the image “does not reflect what transgender is, but is clearly an a snarky put-down of both a Democratic attempt to respect a group of citizens long treated poorly by society, and of that group itself. Nunes should be ashamed.”
