Sara Ramrez did not take kindly to a recent profile of them published by The Cut that they felt drew unnecessary comparisons between them and their And Just Like That character.

The actor, who plays Che Diaz on the Sex and the City revival series, issued a scathing response to the June 20 article which bore the headline Hey, Its Sara Ramrez on Instagram Tuesday.

Been thinking long and hard about how to respond to The Hack Jobs article, written by a white gen z non-binary person who asked me serious questions but expected a comedic response I guess, Ramrez wrote in a post that included two photos that had been featured in The Cuts story, but didnt name the reporter directly.

They went on to note: I trust that those of you who matter, who are not petulant children, who are smart enough to catch on to what was actually going on there, can perceive it for what it is: an attempt to mock my thoughtfulness and softness, while dismissing a valid existence and real human being in favor of tv show critiques that belonged elsewhere.

In the article, writer Brock Colyar who, like Ramrez, is nonbinary notes that Che Diaz has garnered plenty of eye-rolling from the (mostly younger) queer people I know, who found the character a hyperbolized, hypercringe representation of nonbinary identity.

Colyar also spoke with Ramrezs And Just Like That co-star Cynthia Nixon for the story, and suggests both actors believe that the polarizing reaction to Che Diaz has more to do with a societal discomfort around gender-nonconforming people, rather than a hope coming from actual queer people that we be portrayed as less lame.
