‘Fighting for you ladies. And for your daughters,” he captioned one photo.

‘The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Men are not women.’

O’Loughlin also recently shared a clip from one of her stand-up gigs where she responded to a heckler.
“I don’t think trans women are women, I think they’re bastards,” she said.
