I just meant that this show gets watched by over a million people (for now) and her entire time in the house so far has been about being trans, so people might get a negative representation for trans people because of the way she's dealing with the issue and showing trans people to be - and not everyone will know a trans person so this might be all they see of them

Like how a lot of people hate vegans because there's some pushy OTT vegans on social media, even if they don't represent every vegan there is
