Caitlyn Jenner Slammed On Social Media For Her Post Celebrating LGBTQ Pride Month

Former Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner has been condemned on social media for what she posted in honor of LGBTQ Pride Month.

This weekend, Jenner posted an image of herself on X in which she sat in a car while she wore a red dress.

“Rolling into [Pride] month like…,” she wrote in the post.

Many users in the comments for this post reacted negatively to what she wrote.

“Always wild to see a tree voting for an axe,” the user @FlindyD stated on June 2, alluding to the reality television star’s support for conservatives.

In response to her post, the user @chicodeinfierno asked Jenner what she has “done for the LGBTQ community?”

“It’s horrifying how you support policies that harm the LGBTQ+ community,” the user @SabaSmw declared. “You’re horrifying.”

In late March, Jenner backed the ban on trans athletes during a press conference alongside Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman in Mineola, New York.

The ban would prevent transgender athletes on female sports teams from using county-owned facilities. It applies to more than 100 athletic facilities in New York City’s Long Island suburbs, such as ballfields, basketball and tennis courts, swimming pools and ice rinks. The ban does not apply to trans men, just trans women.

The former Olympic gold medalist stated that allowing trans women to compete would “ruin women’s sports” in the future. Her comments received criticism, asking why she is supporting the ban as a trans woman. The LGBT Network labeled her statements as a “baffling contradiction” considering her transgender identity.

Jenner said that while she sympathizes with the LGBTQ community and “understands their struggles,” she worried that allowing transgender people to compete with women would threaten the gains that female athletes achieved.

In another social media post made by Jenner in April, she wrote “good riddance” in response to the death of O.J. Simpson, whom she and ex-wife Kris Kardashian were close to before the murder of Simpson’s former wife.
