An image of JD Vance allegedly dressed as a woman and wearing a blonde wig was posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, on Sunday. The unconfirmed image quickly picked up steam and began trending under the hashtag #SofaLoren, a reference to the iconic Italian actress Sophia Loren and false claims that the Republican senator had sex with a couch.

Many commenters online connected Vanceās alleged history of cross-dressing with his legislative historyāwhich has long been a point ofĀ concernĀ for LGBTQ+ advocacy groups.
The Ohio senator introduced the āProtect Childrenās Innocence Act,ā whichĀ aims to criminalizeĀ medical institutions that provide gender-affirming care to minors.
The Republican vice presidential pick also supports measures to limit classroom discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity, and labeled critics of so-called ādonāt say gayā legislationĀ āgroomers.ā

I donāt think anyone is really clear what youāre saying, even though we seem to be on the same side. You seem to be suggesting that the hypocrisy isnāt the real problem, itās that he once did this thing and now claims that itās wrong for others to do it. And thatās literally the textbook definition of hypocrisy: the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which oneās own behavior does not conform.
JD Vance claims dressing in drag is morally wrong yet he himself has dressed in drag in the past. That makes him a hypocrite. Thatās the hypocrisy that people are pointing out. I donāt know what counter-argument youāre trying to put forward.

So is you point that pointing out hypocrisy isnāt enough?
I would disagree in part, but that would make way more sense if thatās what youāve been trying to say.
