No, Michelle Obama didn’t call herself ‘a Black man’

On her podcast, Michelle Obama asked Marlon Wayans to talk about his experience “as a Black man” raising a transgender child. Conservative influencers circulated the remarks without context to say she described herself as “a Black man.”

    I am embarrassed to say I have a sister-in-law that claims Michelle Obama is really a man. She claims she has pictures showing her with an adam’s apple. While technology has helped humanity in so many ways, I fear it is the beginning of the end of humanity.

      Many cis women have ‘adam’s’ apples though, and it’s likely due to racism, same as it ever was. Transphobia and racism go hand in hand.

      I have a parent that believes this too. It’s pathetic.

    They have kids. XD

    I, of course, would have no problem with it if she was trans but she obviously isn’t.
