An Arizona woman has people rolling their eyes after a stunt she pulled in protest of a transgender member of her local school board.
Lindsey Graham, a mother and hair salon owner, dressed herself in a tight-fitting leopard-print catsuit to speak to the Liberty Elementary District in Maricopa, Arizona near Phoenix.
The stunt was her way of mocking the transgender board member for their gender identity by likening it to a woman in a cat costume claiming to be a cat, which aside from being needlessly disrespectful is not how gender works.
See her ridiculous spectacle below.

Graham, who also has a podcast called "Patriot Barbie" because of course she does, explained her point thusly:
"I am a cat, meow, meow."
"I’m not a woman dressed as a cat, but I am a cat."
Wow. Hilarious.
She went on to liken transgender identity to a "mental disorder", "playing dress up", and "altered realities."
Her stunt landed her a guest spot on Fox News' Jesse Watters Primetime--again, because of course it did--where she misgendered the board member and implied she was a danger to children.
"Not only does he appear in front of the children and insist that the children define him as a woman, but he sits on the board and he’s making decisions for these children."
She went on to tell Watters that her goal in the stunt was to protest against the "woke" agenda of the local school district.
“The point I was trying to make as a cat was that obviously you can’t just identify as whatever you want and demand that other people identify you as whatever you want."
Actually, yes you can, sort of like how she identifies as "Patriot Barbie" when she's actually just some uninformed zealot named Lindsey Graham. But let's not split hairs.
Graham went on to call the board member's gender identity "mental illness" before warning that they are damaging the school's children by existing.
“[W]hen you put them in charge of children, we’re talking about a new type of indoctrination, and that’s what’s really terrifying, is seeing these people in charge of our kids’ education.”
Unsurprisingly, Graham's stunt didn't go over well with many people online.

\u201cI saw this while at the gym and was baffled. Like, sometimes bigotry is downright hilarious. And sad. And vile. And so so stupid \ud83e\udd23\u201d— Danez (@Danez) 1671040969
Graham has made national news before. In 2020 she defied the state of Oregon's COVID-19 lockdown orders by keeping her salon open and went on to write a book about it, TARGETED: One Mom’s Fight for Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
