QteeFoxx, a notable figure in the transgender modelling world, is confronting online critics who disparage her appearance, while disclosing a surprising revelation: many of her detractors turn out to be her most devoted followers, paying for her photographs and seeking private interactions with her, despite being in committed relationships.
Since childhood, QteeFoxx was aware of her true gender identity, but it wasn’t until she was 20 that she could openly express it. Now 24, she has built a significant presence online, with a following of 220,000 on Twitter. Despite this acclaim, she is often subjected to online abuse, mainly from men who, paradoxically, are her primary audience.
“I get so much hate online,” QteeFoxx asserts. “But it’s the same men who call me names who then pay money to see my photos and talk to me in private. Some even consider me their virtual long-distance girlfriend.”
She is mindful of the potential strain this could place on relationships, observing, “I would 100% understand if their monogamous partner viewed this as cheating. It’s definitely a step up from watching a video of some random girl and a lot closer to having a long-distance mistress.”
Despite the backlash for her daring content, QteeFoxx views it as an empowering outlet, insisting that she represents more than just a “sex object,” but rather a person with depth and complexity. “Sharing nudes of myself and my life experiences has really helped me as a trans woman to not just accept, but also love my body,” she articulates.
Amidst these challenges, QteeFoxx remains dedicated to her advocacy for representation and empowerment. “I want to make content that showcases me as a human, more than the stereotype, and to help represent people like me as whole beings, with thoughts, dreams, and wants,” she affirms.
Originating from Sweden, QteeFoxx’s upbringing was characterised by acceptance and support for her transition from her family and peers. She is now focused on assisting others in their journey of self-discovery and in educating the public on transgender experiences.
“I’ve had so many genuine talks with people that have made them stop using slurs and derogatory language against trans people,” she recounts. “I just want people to see us as the gender we are, through talking and also, sometimes, having a little bit of fun.”
