I didn't realize that gay men had a problem with keeping friends after dismissing trans ideology. I guess that I thought y'all had the upper hand in that scene.

I've made comments about wolves in sheep's clothing years back to friends. That and pro-trans parents using kids-in-transition as social skittles treating them like toy dogs, probablyhaving Munchausen-by-Proxy, etc.. I haven't brought anything up close to recently though.

I think making new friends is hard as shit as everyone gets older. The LGB folks had the groups and gatherings dedicated to that, but if you're anti "T" I guess that's going to road block you. More people will peak in your community soon enough.

Yep unfortunately gay men who are against Trans ideology get put on the chopping block as well but it's ironic because me being a gay man, a feminine non-conforming one at that, it's the other part of what made it so easy to see why the trans ideology was faulty since part of it relies heavily on social gender norms and that people like me or the butch lesbians, we disrupt the gender norms and show that it's not some innate thing (Men are born feminine, women are born feminine).

And yeah making friends as you get older is definitely hard, I'm one year away from 30 and I really haven't had any friends since high school, just a small online group but the GC stuff is definitely complicating things more. I hope you're right that more people peak hopefully soon.

I think there's a GC men's group that's on here as well if you're looking for possible male friendship. They got ousted from Reddit as well and took up shop here on saidit. I don't know how active it is, but it's one more option if that's of interest.

Maybe he means friends in the real world, though.
