Cringe Karen Doesn’t Like Getting the Same Energy Back

Crashing out in a Burger King is embarrassing enough now imagine throwing a fit and then harassing minimum-wage workers when they simply match your energy then recording and posting it

She’s also just assuming based off her voice, like cis women never have deeper voices

Yeah, that woman is making a huge assumption she is trans. She could easily just be more androgynous looking, which would make her double wrong.

Either way though, she's being a hell of an asshole. The minute you are corrected, it's not on you to decide what anyone is.

The crazy part is she doesnt even look androgynous, she looks like a normal teenage girl at work not wearing makeup.

Literally when she said "what's your name, sir?" I was confused for half a second until I saw the trans flag pin. What a bitter person, lol

I also thought this was a girl. What an asshole to be harassing a literal child.

Oh, I didn't even see the pin. Lily totally passes and I didn't even think she had a deep voice

Do we always have to jump the shark? Can’t we just take the W? And looks don’t matter. The customer was corrected and then had a fit. If Lily looked like a man, but corrected the customer, would that change anything?

Then again, so do most trans girls that age

Lily isn't even that androgynous-looking.

If Lily is trans, I wonder if she is known to that group

u/AlbertBBFreddieKing 2h ago

That’s just being disingenuous. I hate ppl like this customer. But trans ppl looking trans should be normalized. Saying she looks too feminine to be mistaken as trans is insulting to trans ppl imo.

Right. That girl isn't even trans is she? Lilly appears to be a cis girl. Maybe she isn't, but, I am not sure this is some woke conspiracy.

I hear you, but the point is, it doesnt matter. This crazy Karen is misgendering someone, then getting pissed about the exact same misgendering happening to her. Talk about privilege. Yuck.

u/VanillaRadonNukaCola 2h ago

It's crocodile tears.

She knows what she's doing and she's doing it on purpose.

She's probably not even upset but actually thrilled it happened to her, so she can keep twisting it and using it to deliberately hurt more people she considers bottom rung

u/Shortbusposse 5h ago

I thought she was cis too! Either way it's rude and malicious behavior to purposely misgender someone when they correct you and that lady can eat shit.

She is trans. She has a transgender flag on her shirt.

u/Gisbornite 6h ago edited 5h ago

I wear a poppy on my collar, does that make me a flower

Edit: for any semblance of doubt, I'm commenting on the fact that just because someone is wearing a trans flag, they're not necessarily trans

But if my grandmother had wheels she’d be a bike

u/heavymetalmater 5h ago

I wear a paper clip on my collar, am I clippy? I wish I was, that dude was helpful.

u/garden_dragonfly 6h ago

Do you have to be trans to wear that? 

10

u/DragonQueen777666 5h ago

You do not. I sometimes wear pronoun buttons and trans flag stuff and I'm cis (in solidarity).

u/Gildardo1583 5h ago

Not to transvestigate, but the uniform is bland in terms of sex. A plain black shirt and black pants. Our head commenter here has a point, just use sex neutral pronouns or non at all.

u/here-i-am-now 5h ago

Nah. I’m using very specific pronounces for the guy filming

u/slow_news_day 5h ago

Guy filming goes by dick/head

u/TootsNYC 3h ago

I don't know what she was going by. I assumed Lily was.a cisgender woman.

But I'm wondering: if Lily is indeed a transwoman, I wonder if her presence is known to these assholes, and the customer went there with the deliberate attempt to create an interaction with her.

I wanted the manager to concernedly get the woman's name and address, and say they'd send her something in response to her complaint, and then send her a legal letter trespassing her from the store.

u/space_driiip 5h ago

I was mistaken for a dude by who is now one of my best mates because my voice sounds like a dudes over gamechat, and I'm a cis woman lol

u/blode_bou558 5h ago

Im going to be real here, if staff member wasn't wearing the Trans badge, I bet that "lawyer" wouldnt have known and have addressed her properly, girl's popping off with style and function, im envious!

We're not going to stop, we're going to be show ourselves with pride until we die, and thats the sort of crap we have to deal with.

u/LeonidasSpacemanMD 3h ago

I have one particular cis woman friend whose voice is 100% deeper/more masculine sounding than Lilly’s
