Is Ke$ha transphobic?

Ke$ha isn't known for her intelligence but rather for her lack thereof.  Does anyone really believe she wrote the song to demean the transgender community? I doubt those were her intentions, but the reality is that she did. Ke$ha's earlier comments about the transgender community sounds as if she is unaware that the transgender community consists of more than just drag queens. Can this oversight be attributed to ignorance?

Whether any of us like it or not Ke$ha has been given a platform and the ability to change impressionable young minds. I'm not saying she has to become a champion for equality, but it would be nice if she were more aware of the effects her lyrics can have.

Not only is her song transphobic, but very sexist as well. It's misandric because it puts pressure on men to be "manly" and to conform to their gender role, and it's also misogynistic because it views femininity as being a negative thing.
