The gaslighting!!!! First: " this article is not to suggest in any way, shape, or form that people “owe” transgender people dating opportunities or sex. "

Then:

"Similarly, imagine a date that’s going well. There’s mutual physical attraction and definite chemistry. Then you find out they’re transgender via conversation, and end the date right then and there. for the fact that the other person was transgender. This is discrimination against the transgender person for being transgender."

So no one owes transgender people a date, youre just discriminating against them by not doing so.

My favorite lolz, was the idea that gay men do not want to sleep with transmen for fear of giving up their "gold star" status. Ah yes, the illustrious privilege of being a gold star in the gay community, it is too great of a privilege to risk losing it.

Trans whiners don't DO irony. They seem to think the "gold star gay" thing is actually REAL, like we have them recorded in our files and get a certificate or something. Stupidity reigns.

I'll be honest, another gay guy was pressuring me to answer why I wouldn't sleep with a trans guy and I did pull out the Platinum Star Gay (tm) as a reason I didn't want to. It was either that or start getting mad at him for suggesting I sleep with a person I'm not attracted to...

I'm not easily offended, but man, that part about the "gold star" thing offended me. How fucking shallow does the writer think gay men are? Such prejudice and stupidity.
