Dolls is a term that came from ballroom and is SPECIFICALLY referring to girls who passed and were conventionally attractive. Ppl should really just be saying protect trans women bc doll is not an inclusive term and is being appropriated no shade.
“protect the dolls” includes clocky girls that don’t pass or aren’t conventionally attractive btw

Ballroom has its own issues with binary gender presentation and transmedicalism but that’s not for white queers to worry about methink!

I designed a lot of costumes for the ppl in the ballroom scene and you’re right. It’s like when a billion years ago people said “serving fish”.
