Viewers and celebrities are calling out several Big Brother Brazil 22 contestants of transphobic actions and remarks against Linn Da Quebrada that include misgendering her on a regular basis in the Big Brother house. This year, history was made with the casting of Linn Da Quebrada on BBB22. Linn identifies herself as a Brazilian travesti — a term that is perceived negatively in its English translation but that is a widely-accepted gender identity in Latin America within the LGBTQIA+ community.

Alas, she is unfortunately facing certain transphobic remarks while competing on the show.
