the dehumanization of trans women

Wow.

It's 2014 -- how does anyone not get that a photo of headless bodies of women is offensive??

... And a shout-out to Newsweek for reporting this.

Gosh that's so bizarrely insensitive. I can't believe they thought that would be okay. Normally I like Science, and Newsweek (in print, at least) kinda went down the toilet a few years ago, but that cover is shameful and Newsweek did the right thing in talking about it.

The "S" in science even largely blocks out the girl standing on the left's face, not cool, not cool at all.
