Despite declining masculinity when she changed her gender to become a woman, A trans influencer slammed society, boldly suggesting that men today are too sensitive and that they need to stop expecting the \u201cprincess treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n
Arizona\u2019s Ali C. Lopez is no stranger to controversy. As a proud, plus-size transgender woman and social media influencer, she fearlessly shared her journey, captivating audiences with her raw honesty and bold perspective.<\/p>\n
Lopez\u2019 popularity was launched after an appearance on the Whatever podcast, where topics like feminism, gender roles and traditional values are fiercely debated.<\/p>\n
Her candid responses during the podcast, particularly when asked to rate her attractiveness, sparked online attention.<\/p>\n
Lopez famously declared herself \u201ca fat f***ing ten,\u201d a statement that led to the creation of the now-viral meme \u201cGorlock the Destroyer.\u201d<\/p>\n
Though the moniker initially stung, Lopez admits she\u2019s trying to embrace it but still finds the Gorlock label unsettling.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I\u2019m 100% honest, there are days where it still bothers me that I get called that\u2026There was even a time I was like, \u2018should I just even embrace [\u2018Gorlock the Destroyer\u2019] at this point?\u2019 I don\u2019t even care,\u201d Lopez told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n
But, the 25-year-old is enjoying the attention. \u201cI feel like [it\u2019s]\u2026 a little bit of an out-of-body experience, or you\u2019re just, like, there\u2019s, \u2018No way that\u2019s me.\u2019 It\u2019s a crazy feeling. And honestly, I\u2019m still fairly new to [being viral],\u201d she said about her online fame. \u201cThere\u2019s good, bad, exciting, nervous. It\u2019s just all over the place.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2018Princess treatment\u2019
\nThe hype surrounding Lopez doesn\u2019t stop at her Gorlock identity, and her 502,000 TikTok followers can\u2019t get enough of her content, many posts that collect millions of likes.<\/p>\n
From beauty tutorials and lifestyle tips to heartfelt videos on her transition, Lopez \u2013 who calls herself a \u201ccertified baddie\u201d \u2013 offers a unique blend of relatability and inspiration. However, it\u2019s her candid discussions about dating and relationships that have sparked the most heated debates.<\/p>\n
The transgender woman has been vocal about her challenges and observations when it comes to dating, faulting the decline in traditional masculinity, which she says impacts modern relationships.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s getting out of control,\u201d Lopez told Fox News, explaining she wants to find a man who can handle tasks that in the past were labelled as traditionally masculine.<\/p>\n
But that\u2019s not easy to find these days, according to Lopez.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt least for me, you better be able to do more than what my dad can do. Because if I have to call my dad to do something for me and not you. Why are you here?\u201d Lopez continued, \u201cI feel like a lot of [men] need to start being [men]. When it comes to the male world\u2026men nowadays are expecting princess treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n
She adds, \u201cI just see a lot of men expecting women in the relationship\u2026to go above and beyond and like them to almost do nothing\u2026I also love when there is a little bit of a gender role in a relationship. I\u2019m not a big fan of toxic masculinity [but] I like when there\u2019s a little bit of that, like \u2018I\u2019m the man and I\u2019m going to take charge.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
What people are saying
\nLopez\u2019s views on the world were met with some praise and a lot of hostility.<\/p>\n
One netizen writes, \u201cWell \u2013 I don\u2019t quite know where to start \u2013 why would anyone be influenced by anything coming from this person \u2013 maybe she should indulge in some inner reflection about dating issues.\u201d<\/p>\n
A second, associating her physique to Humpty Dumpty, shares, \u201c\u2026and all the king\u2019s horses and all the king\u2019s men\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
In the comments section of a TikTok clip that has 9.8 million views, one troll references Jabba the Hutt from the Star Wars franchise: \u201cJabba will not make it past 40 with that lifestyle,\u201d the troll writes. A second adds, \u201cThe confidence is amazing. Jabba I\u2019m proud of you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, others jumped in and defended the plus-sized trans influencer.<\/p>\n
\u201cGirl, you look great! Don\u2019t let these ppl bring you down!!!\u201d writes one, while a second shares, \u201cI\u2019m sorry people are so mean you\u2019re so pretty.\u201d<\/p>\n
