Fierce Debate Rages On Social Media After Trans Influencer Dylan Mulvaney Is Named ‘Woman Of The Year’ By Magazine

Transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney won the Woman of the Year award from British magazine Attitude.

“Dylan Mulvaney is our Woman of the Year, supported by @VirginAtlantc,” the magazine wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Mulvaney responded to the post, saying, “Knowing that my community sees me this way and acknowledges my womanhood is all I need to keep going.”

Mulvaney posted her acceptance speech on social media.

“Some people don’t see me as a woman at all, which is why receiving this honor from a queer publication like Attitude means so much more to me,” Mulvaney said. “No matter how hard I try or what I wear, or what I say, or what surgeries I get, I will never reach an acceptable version of womanhood by those hateful people’s standards. But as long as I have the queer community that sees me for my truth, I’m gonna be ok.”

Mulvaney made headlines this year when she partnered with Bud Light as part of a campaign. The decision sparked much criticism, resulting in a sharp decline in sales for the brand.

Predictably, the move stirred a fierce debate on social media. One user wrote: “Seriously? Dylan Mulvaney is woman of the year? Glad that is such an unimportant award from an unheard of magazine.”

Conservative commentator Candace Owens wrote: “Unbelievable. Dylan Mulvaney wins ‘Woman Of The Year Award.’”
