TERFs believe that transgenderism is a conspiracy to erase lesbians from existence!

https://hornet.com/stories/pride-in-london-terfs/

https://www.bustle.com/p/pride-in-london-2018-was-marred-by-protests-but-the-reaction-showed-how-love-conquers-hate-9691550

The protesters shouted slogans like A man who says hes a lesbian is a rapist and Only women can be lesbians.


Or the majority did, at least: to the hurt and disappointment of many involved, the beginning of the event was marred by anti-trans protestors blocking the front of the march. Though the parade was supposed to be led by London Mayor Sadiq Khan, as well as staff from the NHS, which is currently celebrating its 70th anniversary, PinkNews reports that approximately ten women hijacked the march, at one point lying on the ground to block its progress. Organising under the hashtag #GetTheLOut, the protestors, who argue the trans movement poses a threat to lesbian rights, held banners with slogans such as "Transactivism erases lesbians", and distributed leaflets containing anti-trans messaging, as the Independent reports.

i get their points, don't agree with all of them but i get it
i've turned down a couple trans women looking for lesbian partners too
and yeah i got flack for it sometimes along with being called transphobic

but i don't agree with how this group approached this
as a garden variety gay woman i don't completely disagree with their outrage over any pressure to accept trans women as partners
nobody's obligated to accept dates with someone who chose to transition
those life adjustments are on them to make

but i think it's low to imply that trans folks are rapists and attempt to dirty the meaning of transactivism
plenty of trans people aren't monsters like that and respect our differences without being screamed at

its why i never became a TERF myself

If people dont want to date trans-people, then fine, it is up to everybody to decide who they want to date.
But dont be assholes about it.
Claiming that trans-people are rapists and that they try to erase lesbianism just because you dont want to date them is pure stupidity.

I'm pro trans rights but social issues should be compartmentalized. There's no reason feminists should have to carry the burden of trans activism to achieve feminist goals.
Intersectional feminists still haven't proven they know how a Venn diagram works.

Should be legal for attendees to drag these lunatics away away with whatever force needed to keep them away. If it requires beating them into unconsciousness so be it. Especially if its an event that requires payment that is being disrupted. Certainly the police should show no mercy. One warning and if they dont move within three seconds they are moved with whatever force needed.

Make your own event scum. I can not tolerate these kind of people. Its over something so damn irrelevant. Who fucking cares if someone says I am a male lesbian

What is there is a certain quota of female lesbians you need? Cannabalize the people who are supposed to be your allies over such nontangible, irrelevant nonsense ideas. Waste of fucking time my god.

Fuck this really pisses me off. Just fucking shoot people this stupid fucking hell.


You need help.

I really don't care. It is all so stupid to me. I enjoy the infighting though.

there has been for years

-trans woman declares she's a woman
-she happens to be attracted to women and presumes she's a lesbian
-she founds out that 95% of cis-gender lesbians disagree when it comes to dating them after finding out she's trans (if it's not already apparent)

it ain't new
same thing happens when a trans man tries to hook up with cis-gender gay men
low success rates

trans people can already face hurdles trying to convince cis-gender hetero people to be cool with it
their odds don't get much better tryin to date cis-gender gay people
hell there's even trans people who refuse to date other trans people lol

i kinda sympathize with them on how hard it must be for some of them to find cis partners who are down for it

The problem is that most subsets of third wave feminims are just a form of religion. Each subset has its own rhetorical framework and demands for ideological purity. So what you end up running into is a bunch of feminists arguing with each other because each subset wants its own language and rhetorical framework to be the norm.

Ultimately it's a massive waste of energy and resources over disagreements that are complete and utter bullshit.

There are a number of trans women who started out as incels, believe it or not. They thought becoming a woman would make it easier for them to get pussy. Christine Chandler (formerly Chris Chan) is a good example of this.

The joke is on them though, since lesbians and bisexual women don't want their asses either. A trans woman who exclusively dates women is a huge red flag.

Chris Chan is a psychotic narcissist with severe issues perpetuated by an upbringing without anyone ever disputing that he is the center of the universe. To use him as an example, much less a good example of anything he embodies is a disservice to whatever you're comparing him to. Be it incels, sonic fandom, people with autism or literally anything.

TERFs are mostly comprised of radical feminists who wrestle with their own gender identities (a struggle that stems from their hatred of men). They hate men and refuse to accept that they are what they hate. They hate transgenders because of what their existence says about themselves -- that they're not really women either. Julie Bindel -- notorious man-hater who sometimes writes for the Guardian, is the typical example of a TERF. Underneath her politics, she's really just a transgender man, and she hates that self-identified transgenders remind her of that fact.

I mean, trans women literally exist so I don't get your point. Do you hate science? Or do you just hate trans people so much that you'll side with crazy feminists?
