no. but it's not about saying kurt cobain specifically was specifically a transgender woman. it's about recognition of the self through the other, pointing to common threads of experience within the community. it's also a matter of reclaiming history. we have always been here. is it really so hard to believe a famous rock star may have been trans? if so, why?
i recommend reading this for a more thorough take on it, as well as some of the comments here for an idea of where trans people come from when they say things like this
Really appreciate the explanation and links, did not mean to come off quite as dismissive as I did
