Trans influencer Ali C. Lopez slams modern masculinity – ‘Men expect princess treatment’
Social media star sparks debate over gender roles and traditional masculinity
Transgender influencer Ali C. Lopez has called out modern men for being too sensitive and expecting “princess treatment,” sparking a heated online debate.
Arizona-based Lopez, a proud plus-size transgender woman, has built a strong following by sharing her journey and bold opinions. She first gained widespread attention after appearing on the Whatever podcast, where discussions about feminism, gender roles, and traditional values often turn intense.
Her candid remarks, especially when asked to rate her own attractiveness, led to viral fame—and controversy.
From meme to influencer
Lopez made waves online after declaring herself “a fat f***ing ten,” a statement that quickly turned into a viral meme. The internet dubbed her “Gorlock the Destroyer,” a nickname she has mixed feelings about.
“If I’m 100% honest, there are days where it still bothers me that I get called that,” Lopez told Fox News Digital. “There was even a time I was like, ‘Should I just embrace [the name] at this point? I don’t even care.’”
Despite the criticism, the 25-year-old has embraced her viral status, describing it as an “out-of-body experience.” With 502,000 TikTok followers and millions of likes, Lopez has become a major voice in online discussions about beauty, gender identity, and relationships.
‘Men expect princess treatment’
One of Lopez’s most controversial takes revolves around modern masculinity. She argues that traditional gender roles are fading and that many men today have become too soft.
“It’s getting out of control,” Lopez said in an interview with Fox News. She shared her frustration over dating struggles, saying she wants a partner who can handle traditional masculine tasks—something she believes is becoming rare.
“At least for me, you better be able to do more than what my dad can do. Because if I have to call my dad to do something for me and not you—why are you here?”

Lopez went on to criticize modern men for expecting too much from their partners.
“I feel like a lot of [men] need to start being [men],” she said. “Men nowadays are expecting princess treatment… I just see a lot of men expecting women in the relationship to go above and beyond while they do almost nothing.”
While she doesn’t support toxic masculinity, Lopez admits she prefers relationships with clear gender roles.
“I like when there’s a little bit of that, like ‘I’m the man, and I’m going to take charge.’”
Mixed reactions from the internet
Lopez’s comments have received both support and harsh criticism. While some admire her confidence, others are less than impressed.
One social media user wrote, “Why would anyone be influenced by this person? Maybe she should reflect on her own dating issues.”
Another compared her to Humpty Dumpty, while a troll referenced Star Wars, writing, “Jabba will not make it past 40 with that lifestyle.”
Despite the hate, Lopez has also received encouragement.
“Girl, you look great! Don’t let these people bring you down!!!” one supporter commented.
Another added, “I’m sorry people are so mean—you’re so pretty.”
Love her or hate her, Ali C. Lopez is undeniably making an impact. She continues to challenge traditional views on gender, beauty, and relationships, proving that confidence and self-expression can be powerful—even in the face of relentless criticism.
Her story is a reminder that being yourself isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it.
