KIRO radio host Dori Monson is back on the air following an almost three-week suspension from Bonneville Seattle after he made a transphobic tweet during the Oct. 7 gubernatorial debate.

Monson revealed the news and issued an apology in a post on MyNorthwest.com. He also apologized on Oct. 8 during his radio show for the way people took his comment, saying he didn’t intend for the tweet to be received like that.

The tweet, now deleted, said: “The state where I could go to Olympia tomorrow and change my birth (certificate) to say I was a girl on 10/2/61.” Monson finished the tweet with “HAHAHAHAHA.'”

The remark was made, Monson said in response to the initial backlash, to attempt to point out hypocrisy as Gov. Jay Inslee said Washington was a “science-oriented” state during his debate with Republican challenger Loren Culp.

  1. Transphobic? Even the spell check here doesn’t think it’s a word. Everything that could remotely offend anyone is now given a title and a bunch of keyboard warriors to right the wrong.

    A US passport application still has only two choices for sex. Not sure how long that science can hold up in today’s “culture”. Diversity in everything but thought is the new standard.

    Welcome back Dori.

  2. I wonder why he’d need a US passport being in the Unite Snakes?

    There are 3 options for the “sex” field on passports for Canadians and travel documents for non-Canadians:

    F—female
    M—male
    X—another gender

  3. Dori may think he is a Christian but this verse in the Bible may say otherwise (especially regarding perversion)…

    “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the one who thirsts I will give [water] from the fountain of the water of life without cost.
    He who overcomes [the world by adhering faithfully to Christ Jesus as Lord and Savior] will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be My son.
    But as for the cowards and unbelieving and abominable [who are devoid of character and personal integrity and practice or tolerate immorality], and murderers, and sorcerers [with intoxicating drugs], and idolaters and occultists [who practice and teach false religions], and all the liars [who knowingly deceive and twist truth], their part will be in the lake that blazes with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
