While some folks thought it was humorous, together with her husband, who wrote he was “glad they didn’t too, cause you and I wouldn’t have worked out,” Maren and Cassadee weren’t amused by the comment in any respect. The 32-year-old Voice winner first known as her out on Friday, writing on Twitter:

Despite the backlash, Brittany took to her Instagram Stories a number of hours later to double down on her controversial stance and accuse Cassadee of “advocating for the genital mutilation of children.” She claimed on the time:
“Advocating for the genital mutilation of children under the disguise of love and calling it ‘gender-affirming care’ is one of the worst evils. I will always support my children and do what I can to protect their innocence. The other day, Memphis wanted to be a dinosaur and tomorrow Navy will want to be a cat, they’re children.”
Brittany continued:
“Some parents want to be accepted by society so badly that they’re willing to make life-altering decisions for their children who aren’t old enough to fully comprehend the consequences of those actions. Love is protecting your child until they are mature enough as an adult to make their own life decisions. Thankful my parents allowed me to go through my tomboy phase without changing my gender. Until then, leave children alone!”
Of course, she additionally had a message for Maren whom she known as “Karen Morris” earlier than thanking her for calling her “Barbie.” And the back-and-forth didn’t finish there! Cassadee finally responded once more by sharing a photograph of herself on Insta and writing:
“POV: Knowing you got under someone’s skin you don’t like in the first place”
The Bones hitmaker additionally replied to the most recent remarks from Brittany within the feedback part of the publish, saying:
“You know, I’m glad she didn’t become a boy either because we really don’t need another asshole dude in the world. Sucks when Karens try to hide their homophobia/transphobia behind their ‘protectiveness of the children.’ Weren’t they putting their kids in ‘Biden-is-a-pedo’ shirts on social media? Sounds like a real safe way to protect them from millions of eyes! F**k all the way off to Insurrection Barbie and the fellow IB’s trolling this comment section with their hypocritical, hateful asses.”
Maren additionally hopped on her Instagram Stories to remind everybody to “check on” their pals who’re members of the LGBTQIA+ neighborhood, saying:
“Ya’ll have been so sweet and supportive today of me and Cassadee. I will say, like, we can handle this s**t, we’ve dealt with idiots for years, you know, saying insanely stupid stuff at us, but like, I would say check on your trans friends, check on your gay friends, anyone that like, is in country music and had to look at that bulls**t today and feel subhuman.”
So glad to see Maren and Cassadee utilizing their platforms to name out terrible posts like Brittany’s! Thoughts on the state of affairs, Perezcious readers? Sound OFF within the feedback (beneath).
