==Transphobia==
Prior to specific controversial incidences, Scarcella had a general trend of representing androgyny, drag, and trans people in demeaning or exclusionary ways. Early skits often depicted ugly women through male actors and there were instances of the idea that cis women should feel insulted by being compared to drag queens or trans women.Arielle Scarcella.

In August 2013, Scarcella made a video intending to call out pushy men harassing her at bars but neglected to give context, and her exact wording of yelling at men who call themselves lesbians caused trans viewers to take offense. Instead of opening a dialog and smoothing things over with them, she followed up with another video to rant at the trans community for being overly aggressive.Arielle Scarcella.

In 2014, Scarcella had a stint making content for She Wired, a lesbian-centered offshoot of Pride.com, and her first act was to open a dialog to define womanhood. She made a vlog with the title "What is a woman?",Arielle Scarcella. Watch: Lesbian Asks, What Is a Woman? Pride.com foreshadowing the question's later use as a snarl phrase used by transphobes like Matt Walsh, who would make a transphobic documentary with the same title. She didn't speak directly to trans women and instead polled the general LGBT community.
In August 2017, Scarcella teamed up with Jaclyn Glenn to produce a responseArielle Scarcella. Re: A Chat About Dating "Preferences" (SJW Response). YouTube to a video by Fiona (neonfiona) who — just like her girlfriend, transgender feminist Riley Dennis — called on her audience to reflect on how societal and cultural influences may have a role in trans-exclusionary dating preferences. Unfortunately, Scarcella and Glenn misrepresented Fiona's argument as a call for conversion therapy. To make matters worse, Scarcella tweeted her video with a caption calling Fiona (a bisexual with a trans girlfriend) a "Homophobic SJW", and then proceeded to tag numerous influential antifeminist and transphobic personalities. Unsurprisingly, as a result of all this, Fiona received an enormous amount of backlash and abuse on her much smaller channel, to the extent that she made it private and deleted much of her content.Flores, Buffy. We Need to Talk About Arielle Scarcella's Video on Trans Women & Dating 'Preferences'. Pride.com, August 9, 2017. Scarcella also dismissed Fiona's commentary on the basis that she could "never understand" the lesbian perspective, while forgetting that she (Scarcella) is a cis woman talking over trans people.

She then presented a series of egregious tweets and Tumblr posts that, while clearly denigrating lesbians, could possibly be nutpicked, as she did not present any data showing whether such posts are more frequent than those attacking other gender/sexuality demographics.

==Biphobia==
Arielle Scarcella posted an incredibly biphobic video “What Lesbians Think About Bisexuals” in which biphobic lesbians described bisexual women as “greedy”, “slutty” and “confused”, and said it would be “unfortunate” if they met an attractive girl who happened to be bisexual. These biphobic lesbians also described dating a bisexual as being on “ice that would melt”, and that lesbians don’t date bisexuals because they’re “smarter” than bisexual women. Only one woman conceded that lesbians could be too hard on bisexual women.What Lesbians Think About Bisexuals
