First of all - our problems are very different problems, so we don't have anything in common to stand for.

Second - this new gender ideology is very homophobic on its nature.

Third - it affects kids, especially young gay boys and lesbian teens, ruining their lifes forever.

Fourth - it throws back all our effort on normalizing "non-conforming" gender neutral or "wrong gender" cloths. It has to do with feminism more than with LGB issues, but it has to do with LGB as well. Women were able to wear any "men" cloths, and men were slowly getting there as well (previously here people will call you gay or attack if you wear red or pink shirt, nowadays it is normal). And gender ideology is returning back stereotypes, that "some stuff is inherently men stuff and some stuff is inherently women stuff", which is not true at all. By that definition any LGB person is transgender, as liking "wrong sex" is already non-conforming to gender stereotype.
