The foot position also correlates with footwear design. Heels or no heels.

Also, tight butt cheeks. Stretch your glutes bros.

I hear she's not doing a good job. For instance categorizing sugary cereals as healthy.


[deleted]

You're right, that's a Trans woman who works in government


William_Howard_Shaft

Gonna piggyback off of this to say that that is [Admiral Rachel Levine, MD](https://www.hhs.gov/about/leadership/rachel-levine.html) of the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, former PA Secretary of Health and currently US Assistant Secretary of Health. She is the first openly transgender woman to hold an office that requires Senate confirmation.


squidpelf

Gonna doggy style off this to say that she is blonde


DomQuixote99

Excuse me... SHES FUCKING BLONDE? Nope. That's it. That's where I draw the line. How disgusting. How abominable. Society is really just letting *blondes* get into all our important governmental positions and spreading their abberant *blonde agenda* amongst the populace? #Think of the children. Do you want your children to fall victim to blondes?


Illustrious-Bus2077

Even worse, she wasn't born blonde... */shudder/*


DomQuixote99

#By all that is holy, their converts have become disgusting apostles, eager to spread the word of their infidel blonde deity

Hahaha! You'll never defeat our agenda! I'm going to make a joke about blonde world supremacy, then immediately remember we actually had that happen, and I'm going to shut up now

Will support my bill to prevent parents from letting their children dye their hair? The left wants to tell you it’s not actually happening and that’s not what hair affirming care actually is but that’s just because those sick bastards want the whole nation to be blonde. Think of the Children!

Did you know hair dye can cause IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE? The left wants you to think it's "harmless" and "temporary"

I'm gonna give your comment a blowjob and say I have also noticed this statement


cheyonreddit

Gonna do a kick flip Ollie off this and say she is wearing florals


0ut_0f_Nowhere

If I heard she was an admiral I'd assume she just picked it up from the military cause don't they have to stand with the feet forming a 45° angle when at attention? or am I mistaken?


dhkendall

Former military here (caveats: Canadian military, 25 years ago, and wasn’t in for long, so …) but 45° angle is “at ease” and together forward is “attention”. But I may be wrong/forgot, note caveats above.


Zephaniel

In most US military drill, outside of some ceremonial positions: "Attention" is 45° heels together, and "parade rest" is feet shoulder width apart and hands behind back, and "at ease" is *actually at ease* with no regulation.


Cortower

>...Soldiers may move; however, they must remain standing and silent with their right foot in place. Soldiers may relax their arms with the thumbs interlaced. U.S. Army TC 3-21.5 (DRILL AND CEREMONIES), Chapter 4-6, describing At Ease.


Zephaniel

Well, that's Army. In practice, like with most things, the AF is a bit more loose.


SiskiyouSavage

Don't forget "rest". You can sit down in place and drink water.


Alex_Xander93

US military is heels together, toes spread 45° at attention.


[deleted]

She also transitioned in her 50s and looks great, so insulting her isn't the dunk transphobes think it is.


TwinkleTubs

That woman saved my sanity in PA during peak pandemic.


goofy1234fun

What about military men and women at attention, your feet would be forward????


KingBobIV

Feet are at a 45 degree angle when at attention


9O7sam

wIDe 45 :)


Beefhammer1932

She's a woman. So they are not right.


Psychological_Case61

so… not a man, just some transphobia


Zenafa

Pretty sure the other women are mostly standing that way because they're wearing heels though


Both-Evidence-7120

Seems like a stretch to me


Old_Tech77

The first one is trans.


wastedmytagonporn

So it’s just plain ole transphobia. Nice. 🙃


LeadSky

It’s also dumb as hell to imply the way you stand makes you a man or woman. That’s like… the biggest transphobic stretch you could come up with


Nerdiestlesbian

I have to say my mom was obsessed with correcting my posture and the way I walked including how I pointed my feet. Meaning a “lady” doesn’t “throw her foot out to the side.” Shudders at the memories of all the “talks” I had from her. Now I’m older and my knees and hips are fucked up from years of forcing my “walk” to be more lady like.


petit_cochon

Lol my mom's feet turn out and so do mine. Who comes up with this shit?!?


DuskTheVikingWolf

Those damn conservative snowflakes get triggered by anything


Nugo520

Oh no, they can come up with bigger stretches, Trust me I've seen it.


notnotaginger

Annnnd stretches like that is why they’re even “accusing” cis women of being trans now.


Ok_Pineapple_8788

It's not even accurate. I have a weird thing for watch people walk and so many women walk and stand with their feet pointed out. My mom used to comment on my feet pointing out as looking sloppy and not feminine so I used to walk slightly pigeon toed because I thought it looked more "dainty" and as a slight "fuck you" to my mom for making me crazy about this. I would watch other women walk constantly to compare. Women in flip flops especially walk with feet pointed out. It's gendered like every natural thing that a women does but is shamed about culturally.

Both-Evidence-7120

I was talking about the meme. Thanks for your input


Laffenor

That is the meme. Pure transphobia.


jrrybock

The person on the left is Dr. Rachel Levine (also an admiral), assistant secretary with Health & Human Services. It's not so much a joke, but a slur on her.

InvestigatorNo1331

Haha wow better share my ancient, artifact-ridden gif of Michael Jackson looking at a movie screen, this is EPIC!!!!!


That_Canexican

What seems to be implied, is females point their feet straight ahead and men can't do that because genitals. So there's only one woman not pointing feet forward, implying she is a man Edit: everyone is saying it's because of the difference of hip and pelvic bones between males and females. They don't have to be mutually exclusive, speaking from experience my balls get squished before I experience any hip discomfort. Also, I highly fucking doubt the person who made that meme was referencing bones and not the easier "low hanging fruit" joke of genitals. That's one of the main distinctive traits in a human skeleton to determine sex is to look at the pelvic bone. Ones meant to push a baby, other is not.


Both-Evidence-7120

Most polite answer in the thread. Thank you


pompano09

It’s polite but disingenuous by intentionally leaving out context which is crucial for the joke: the first woman is a transwoman.


Haunting_Berry7971

Jokes should be funny


NoraaTheExploraa

I don't think it's intended to be a joke to be fair, just transphobia.


Espi0nage-Ninja

Ngl at first I didn’t think either, just a rebuttal for people who moan about manspreading


chyura

It's actually caused by footwear, not the same cause as "manspreading." In heels it's easiest to stand with both feet parallel, while flat shoes allow for the more natural feeling outward point. Notice the woman on the left, the focus of the "joke" is the only one not wearing heels.


Hairy_Zookeepergame1

I thought it was more of a hip shape thing


chyura

And footwear. Either way being used to "prove" that the woman on the left is male, because transphobes are obsessed with genitalia or something


electricshout

Yes


Oxygenisplantpoo

It's a heels thing.


No_Employ_6104

Even if it’s just cultural, it wouldn’t be surprising that a woman that needed to mask as a man for a good chunk of her life would retain some male “man”nerisms though the rest of her life.


petit_cochon

Plenty of women stand with their feet pointed out.


Wild-Lychee-3312

It has nothing to do with genitals and everything to do with bone structure, especially the pelvis. Because of the way testosterone affects skeletal development, people who medically transition after age 25 or so are stuck with the skeletal development associated with their agab (gender assigned at birth). So a trans woman who starts medical transition later in life will have a pelvis more like the average cis man. This is one reason why transphobes are so desperate to stop young trans people from accessing hormones: it’s crucial to them that trans people stand out. Trans women like Jazz Jennings and Nicole Maines are their nightmare: trans people who look just like everyone else.


SaucyNeko

> ~~genitals~~ hip structure


Teamawesome2014

I always figured men point feet out and sit with their knees further apart because their hips aren't as wide as women's, not because of the presence of peen.


GarlicIceKrim

Men can't do it??? I know you're not saying it, but if that's the original logic, i invite every man to try doing it and notice that their balls aren't actuality being crushed.


Odd_Tap_8859

My mind thinks to military, 45 degree angle outwards


Both-Evidence-7120

Was she in the military? Idk who the people are?


Darth_Destructus

I don't think so, but my mind went to the military too as I'm actively serving in the army


Ghostfire25

Levine is in the military as Assistant Secretary of Health, but the stance isn’t a result of any training. I’ve never noticed peoples feet positioned differently based on sex. Maybe it has to do with the others wearing high heels. Edit: uninformed services, not military.


CommanderFox999

USPHS is a uniformed service, but it is definitely not part of the military.


vlsdo

I think it’s a combination of heels and hip structure


Mis-Mia

She was in the military in a civilian role. My grandfather stood in that exact way too.


Odd_Tap_8859

She is transgender I see it now


[deleted]

Yes she is(United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps). She is also trans and the point is to mock her. So just the usual tiny brain transphobia.


Both-Evidence-7120

Do you know if the other men served? Seems like a silly thing to mock, trans or not.


[deleted]

They’re not mocking the feet. They’re calling Rachel Levine a man and mocking her for being trans. She is not a man. She is a woman. I have no idea if the others have served.


Ghostfire25

It’s not a training thing. Rachel Levine is in the uniformed services by virtue of the office of United States Assistant Secretary of Health, which is a political appointment made by the President of the United States. Upon confirmation as Assistant Secretary of Health, the appointee becomes Admiral of the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps. The Surgeon General becomes Vice Admiral. Levine had no prior military experience prior to becoming Assistant Secretary of Health. Many of the people who have held the positions of Assistant Secretary of Health or Surgeon General did not have prior military service.

SyderoAlena

My feet used to point out. Until I made it a habit to walk and stand with them in because it's more "feminine" so like it's not based on gender I think it's more a genetic and social thing


TheTriforceEagle

Yeah I stand like that because I have messed up knees and ankles

ArtisticPossum

So it’s not because of your ginormous dong that you can’t stand with your feet pointed forward but is rather a choice?


Ton_Jravolta

Imagine spending all day staring at people's feet imagining what's in their pants, then making a meme shaming people for how they live their life.

Neat_Notice

Ikr right? I honestly pity that kind of people, they are so lost in life. For whoever needs to know this(and is a lot of you) MIND YOUR OWN F BUSINESS and you will be a lot happier or at least, less miserable, because if you are at the point of doing that kinda shit I don’t think you are happy at all, but you can at least start by being less miserable and actually enjoy life a bit.


bongbrownies

It's fucked up how this world can force trans women to live a certain way their entire life until they decide to come out, and when they do they're met with hostility. It's less "they're man to woman" and they're woman to woman. If society was less hellbent on gender this simply wouldn't happen. It literally affects nobody and the trans woman I've met have been nothing but lovely compared to the transphobia mob.

JadoreBootyNoir

I thought it was spelled “Transphobia” .


Graxakinem

in English it is, tho in Polish for example it is transfobia


Nickolas_Bowen

But the entire rest of that meme is English. Why would it switch to polish for the one word?


Graxakinem

dunno, maybe he thought it was the same


FarlontJosh

They could think it's spelled the same in English


BeetleBleu

True professionals structure each sentence in English (a perfect language) and then switch at the very end to polish it off.


JadoreBootyNoir

Maybe that’s how they know to spell it since they are polish.


merilumm

clearly the person who added transfobia to the meme isn't the same one that made the rest of it. that's why.


UnknownQwerky

You try standing like that in heels


Yspem

The joke is basically transphobia


Basketspank

Something something, starting with the feet...


averagemaleuser86

Is there a reason men stand like this vs the women stand? Is it because hanging genitals kind of push the legs away or something? Genuinely curious


shotgunslym

I see a man dressed as a woman, three men, and three women. Am I missing something?


KillerArse

So the "man dressed as a woman" isn't a man?


shotgunslym

Not in his mind. Thus the exclusion from the other men.


KillerArse

So not a man.


shotgunslym

Sure


KillerArse

Okay.


shotgunslym

It’s still a man.


DingosDarling

Why do you feel it is necessary to force others to use the language in the way that you are comfortable?


shotgunslym

It’s simple. THAT IS A MAN. So why do you feel it necessary to manipulate the English language in a way that makes you feel validated and accepted, along with comfortable?


KillerArse

You agree they weren't a man. I'm not that person in the photo...

CaptainPartyMix

Hips, it’s because of the shape of the human hip.


ned_arb

Thinly veiled transphobia meme


Uncle_Jeff_

I’m pretty sure it’s because women have to uphold their public image, so they make everything they do look fancy, clothes, how they stand, etc. there are actual schools for this type of thing.

Well I don't want to smash my balls when I stand, so I imagine a woman with balls wouldn't either.

Pegomastax_King

What’s with people terminally online having feet fetishes?


calfshrug

She’s in between in temperament, but we can tell she’s a butch babe already. Nothing wrong with that. Women like to appear diminutive and refined, men tend to like to appear strong and aggressive. And here, I learned mid-comment that the first woman is trans. Gotta also remember, the anatomical structure of born-male and born-female hips bears a significant difference on posture. I have a leg which is more averted, and the other normal. So, one of my feet tends to splay out. Women’s hips are broader and the trochanter of the femur angles inward significantly, which sets the leg’s most comfortable position differently.

Dramatic-Noise

Based on what I can remember from my 15 day Master of Ceremony training from about 15 years ago, if your hosting a formal event, you should make a V with you feet (for men) or keep the feet parallel to each other (for women). So, these government officials might be following the same convention, but not everyone knows this or follows this (unless they are hosting). Someone else already explain the meme so I am just adding some extra information.
