Her views were the most progressive they could possibly be without canceling her own sexuality.

This hits the nail on the head. It doesn’t matter how accommodating gays and lesbians are to trans people. If we don’t deny our homosexuality, we’ll still be labeled as TERFs and transphobes. There’s no point in trying to win because the game is rigged.

This! Unless a lesbian says she will accept "lady cock" she is considered a terf and unless a gay man says he would accept "boy pussy" he is considered transphobic. You won't be considered a good person until you deny your sexual orientation and fall in line. If a 6ft5 beard man says he's a woman, you must not question, you must accept. It's like a cult, you are not to question the o' mighty leader, if they say 2+2=5 then it MUST be true, if you object, your fellow members will shame you into submission. They will shame and bully this girl until she finally breaks and either becomes a "terf" or a full fledged TRA.

Yes. Even lesbians and gay men who pretend they’d be okay with “girldick” and “boypussy,” respectively, aren’t safe. Trans people still bitch that they’re all talk and secret transphobes. If you aren’t fucking someone of the opposite sex, you can’t win with them. We might as well just own our homosexuality, trans feelings be damned.
