"The lady doth protest too much"
"The ~~lady~~ male doth protest too much"
Edit:
if people don't like this comment in context to the post I'm willing to take it down
The male version of lady would be gentleman though...
Does that look like a "gentleman" to you? By familiarity of this particular sort who broadcasts his open distain for trans people on his shirt I warrant he is not a chivalrous, courteous, or honorable man.
I think "male" is probably polite enough and better than he deserves.
I don't really care TBH, it's (probably) a joke so it doesn't have to be accurate to the real life circumstances and then it works better when people actually substitute the correct words IMO.
