“There’s a French gay couple here? They aren’t gay bros! They’re French gay bros! They need to make their own community and leave us alone!” You see how toxic of a mindset that is?

See, what I don't get is that TRAs say they don't validate Rachel Dolezal because race/ethnicity and gender are two completely different things, but at the same time they keep using race/ethnicity in their arguments as comparison.

"being a transwoman isn't any different than being a black woman"

They love to equate other attributes that have nothing to do with gender or sex to be the same as not being a certain gender or sex. It's like saying that since a pencil can be many different colors, a turd can also be a pencil. A complete non-sequitur and false equivalence

Here they go with that racism and masculizing black women, they choose black women because they feel we are close to transwomen aka men. They aren't saying it because we're opressed, they are saying it because, "if black women can be women, why can't we?"

So they're basically saying, "If those manly ass black 'women' can be women, why can't anyone else?"

That's awful, how have they survived this long with a mentality like that? How have so many people allowed their race to be insulted by this group on the most basic level?

Honest question, what do the black lgb people/women in your circle think about this TRA debacle? Do you personally have to be low with your opinions for fear of being ostracized for your T-critical views or are you and your peers usually able to criticize with less fear of backlash?
