Caitlyn Jenner is apologizing after misgendering transgender TikTok phenomenon Dylan Mulvaney in a tweet.
“An individual on Ms. Jenner’s team haphazardly misgendered Dylan in the tweet ‘he is talking about his penis.’ For this we deeply regret the comment and have taken the appropriate actions to rectify the situation internally,” a representative for Jenner told the Washington Examiner.
“Ms. Jenner has no further comment on the matter and stands by her statements, otherwise.”

On “day 233 of being a girl,” Mulvaney delivered a personalized message to Jenner, reacting to a series of critical tweets.
Mulvaney addressed the tweets, one of which used he/him pronouns to describe the fellow transgender woman. “That is just terrible,” the TikTok star said in a video response. Mulvaney added that it is “pretty evil” to see a “trans person invalidating another trans person’s transness.”
@dylanmulvaney Day 233- a message to Caitlyn. To my followers, please do not send her any hate. #trans #daysofgirlhood #caitlynjenner original sound – Dylan Mulvaney
Both Jenner and Mulvaney are biologically male and identify as transgender women.
“We are two of the most privileged trans women in America at the moment,” Mulvaney explained. “I automatically have a lot of respect for you as a fellow trans woman.”
Last week, Jenner shared several tweets regarding Mulvaney. “Let’s not ‘normalize’ any of what this person is doing. This is absurdity!” Jenner wrote.

The comment Mulvaney primarily took issue with, and that Jenner’s team apologized for, read: “He is talking about his penis!”

“Girl, you’re making me sound like I’m some creepy flasher exposing myself!” Mulvaney said.
The influencer expressed disappointment over Jenner making the experience “really ugly,” adding, “I cheered you on from the second you came out, truly.”
Jenner was slammed as “very selfish.”
Mulvaney addressed Jenner’s political affiliation as well, claiming those on the political Right might not have the former Olympian’s best interests in mind. “Don’t you feel a little lonely over there?”
While Mulvaney said meeting up with Jenner might have been on the table a few days prior, the transgender content creator no longer has any interest in getting to know Jenner after the Fox News contributor “personally subjected me to thousands and thousands of hateful eyes.”

Since posting the initial tweets, Jenner claimed to be receiving death threats from the LGBT community.
“I have never received more death threats, death threats to my team, nasty hate mail than this week. It is all from the so called ‘inclusive’ lgbt community. I am so disgusted by the hateful individuals threatening my life for giving my opinions on news topics of the day,” Jenner wrote.
