In a series of tweets, the Media Research Center's Dan Gainor sarcastically asked if Jenner could “have 4,000 surgeries and say he's a woman, why can't he do same and say he's black?” Gainor also compared Jenner's transition to “calling a Dachshund a Great Dane” and began using the hashtag #bewhatyousayyouare: 

I'm officialy 7'1" and 18 again. I demand my #NCAA scholarship. #BeWhatYouSayYouAre
