LGB men and women did humor the trans community and let them call themselves gay/lesbian unquestioned for years. The trans community didn’t take this as a convenient way to say to which sex they’re attracted and let it alone. Instead, they redefine terms, demand all LGB spaces be changed to accommodate them, spew the cotton/boxer ceiling rhetoric, harass LGB people, and work very hard to cancel and deplatform any LGB person who questions any facet of this madness. The trans community as a whole has shown that they are not willing to respect boundaries and that they will take a mile if given an inch.

So true. The whole 'you dont need to sleep with up but you need to accept us as gay men/lesbians" is the same thing. If we see them as gay men and lesbians, then they say gay men and lesbians have no reason not to sleep with them. People who like to erode boundaries (usually narcs) do this all the time. They present what they think would look like a nice compromise to others to get them on board (usually after exhausting them by bombarding them with word salad and the like, so that they are complacent and will agree to anything to get them to stop) then they move the goal posts. It's a manipulative trap.
