LGB ErasureIdeas kill people. We're all pansexual. Attraction to random people on the street is the proof in your sexual pudding. You don't know their gender. They could be nonbinary demifemmebutchelf. Think, you phobic phobes. THINK!

Yeah this is nonsense.

I actually had a very revealing disagreement with a trans ally on Reddit earlier. He's a gay guy, but before I found that out I assumed he was just another woke homophobe. He was pushing this notion that gay males really wouldn't know the difference from trans men, were it not for the genitals. The entire concept of romantic, same-sex attraction was completely alien to him. He hadn't even considered it. I explained that it's actually more likely that I would have a romantic attraction to a trans woman, than a trans man, despite not being physically attracted; that sort of thing is inexplicable and impossible without Homosexuality. But how could I be romantically attracted to a "male brain"? These things transcend surgery and hormones; it's years of socialisation and a million little things that we just don't understand and probably never will.

I actually found it really sad. Imagine being gay and not knowing love like that. It was frustrating, but I actually left it feeling sorry for him.

Edit: I've just realised that this makes me sound like a schlocky romance novelist. What can I say? Some of these fuckers clearly watch way too much porn and could do with it.

A lot of woke folks are pushing through the disappointment of tinder hookups by entering platonic, non sexual, polygamous “relationships” simply because they’re lonely. Both trans people I know are like this and miserable and instead of working on themselves they want someone who tells them they’re special and that being overweight or having mental health issues are totally fine and it’s society that needs to change. Lots of unfulfilling relationships based on gender identity and not love or attraction.

I know a woman who has decided to be with a transman and call herself asexual because she’s always been straight but was abused in her last relationship and the transman she isn’t sexually attracted to is better than being alone or confronting her fear of “cis” men so she decided to date them :( many old high school and college friends so openly unhappy and angry at society and how their lives have turned out but lashing out under the guise of gender politics when the problem is always, always inside them and requiring therapy, actual self respect and love.

Jesus. That sounds like hell and actually really sad in the case of the woman you know. Does she not have many people in her life?

Not to my knowledge, she dropped out of college, lives with another old high school friend as well as her trans,uh, partner. She’s always worked multiple gig jobs and posts about that a lot, and we had a conversation where I tried to convince her she shouldn’t be taking care of an abusive parent on top of all she has to do to survive but she feels obligated to. So she’s a good person but frankly a door mat and I can easily see how she got swept up into identifying as asexual despite being a pretty sexual person before the abusive relationship. We’re in our 30’s- everyone who failed to launch is getting a divorce or coming out as this or that gender now.
