Congratulations on two years of girlhood, Dylan!

Dylan Mulvaney is celebrating her second year of girlhood today by releasing a new single, aptly entitled “Days of Girlhood.”

Mulvaney publicly came out as a woman during the pandemic and documented her journey in a series of TikToks called “Days of Girlhood.” As she continued her transition, she let people know what it was like going through the journey.

Since then, Mulvaney was the center of some absolutely ridiculous media scandals, including doing a sponsored post with Bud Light that ended up with a viral campaign by right-wingers to boycott the beer, smash bottles and cans, and send death threats to Mulvaney.

Throughout it all, Mulvaney has been a perfect example of class rising above it all, continuing to live her best life, fight for trans people, and ignore the haters.

“Days of Girlhood” is a fun and light-hearted song that celebrates all that’s beautiful about being a girl. And we love it!

“Last year, extremists turned my series Days of Girlhood into something to be ashamed of. This single came from my desire to reclaim my relationship to femininity and celebrate trans joy,” Mulvaney says. “I had never written a song before, but I knew I wanted it to feel like the opening of an early 2000s romantic comedy. I’m releasing the song on my second year of transition anniversary, and I’m so honored to be partnering with the Trevor Project again this year. I’m so grateful to my followers who I have watched my journey unfold, and hope that when they listen to the song they will hear the joy it has brought me!”

On International Women’s Day, Mulvaney shared a photo of her with Lady Gaga, which, unfortunately, drew the ire of transphobes and other extremists. Thankfully, Gaga came to her defense.

“It’s appalling to me that a post about National Women’s Day by Dylan Mulvaney and me would be met with such vitriol and hatred,” Gaga wrote. “When I see a newspaper reporting on hatred but calling it ‘backlash’ I feel it is important to clarify that hatred is hatred, and this kind of hatred is violence. ‘Backlash’ would imply that people who love or respect Dylan and me didn’t like something we did. This is not backlash. This is hatred.”

Congratulations, Dylan, we can’t wait to see what the next 20 years of girlhood have in store for you!
