Right? It's absolutely ridiculous, men and women are definitely not conditioned to like the same sex. At least that comment got downvoted, although frankly it's far too few downvotes for such a popular thread and such a homophobic comment.

But then he got gilded for that other comment. It's amazing the lack of awareness in comparing two wildly different things. After decades of fighting gay men got the right to marry (in some countries). Do you want trans people to have the same right? Sure, they can already marry whoever they want. But he's actually putting "having sex with gay men" in the same level as "marriage equality", as if having sex with us is a right too.

Honestly I don't find it all that amazing. I think all trans are mentally ill. Just because a bunch of woke psychologists took gender dysphoria out of the DSM V doesn't make it any less of a disorder. To be clear, I think they deserve respect and support as long as they don't harm others. I'm also aware that homosexuality was once classified as a mental illness. I would argue that there is a big difference between thinking you are the opposite sex and being attracted to the same sex. The classification for a mental illness is when your behavior/thoughts impede your life. Homosexuality doesn't do that (unless it's by outside forces) whereas people who genuinely suffer from gender dysphoria have described the condition as debilitating.

His comments make it clear that he is a cis "gay" man though. Unfortunately way too many LGB people are also sharing the TQ+ narrative.
