The support for LGBT is dropping for the first time in ages thanks to TRA's and nonbinaries.

I strongly disagree. I'm from a country where acceptance is low and I believe it's dropping (especially among younger people) and the LGB is just as looked down upon. It's not just trans who created Pride and go around behaving entitled and inappropriately.

And if the LGB keeps pointing fingers at the T for their mistakes instead of owning up and fixing them, then acceptance is going to drop less. Even people like me who ARE homosexual are quickly becoming very intolerant and are super close to becomign what you guys would call "homophobic." Trans people aren't even my main concern as a homosexual because it's irrelvant, I'm more pissed that a bunch of perverts and attention seekers are trying to represent me, and it's making me feel very guilty and disgusted with myself because I'm starting to believe that I'm a narcissistic pervert too, if every other homosexual male I see acts that way.

Never forget that homosexual desire is universal. It is only sublimated in straights. The goal of gay liberation should be desublimation. That happens by ennobling same sex love. There is the question of why gay people aren't attracted to the opposite sex, but I think that has to do with an incompatibility with the hetero script - for myriad reasons. It's easy to see this with lesbians, who are very often confident strong women who do not want to be dominated by a male. There are likely many routes to exclusive same sex desire, but there are also salient trends, and gender nonconformity tends to be a major one, which is why trans ideology is mixed up with us in the first place, even though they are something different entirely. There is a difference between rejecting aspects of one's sex's stereotypes, and trying to ape the other's.

literally what No it isn't. It's not universal, it's definitely not prevalent in a lot of animal species and it's more common in some places of the world than others. It's quite literally environment based; current evidence suggests this.

"Straights" (Calling them a condescending term is not going to help your case) have nothing to do with it. The current reason so many people are against homosexuality was caused by LGBT. Most anti gay bullying comes from the LGBT. I have had a very few straight people say anything bad about my sexuality (or appearance) but I have had countless gay, bi, lesbian and trans people relentlessly attack me and humiliate me.

The rest of your post is such bullshit meaningless jargon I can't even decipher it. This reads like a TQ post about "queering the cisnormative heterocapitalist system" or whatever pretentious crap they write on their Twitters to make themselves sound smart.

Homosexuality is not a revolutionary act and never will be.

It's easy to see this with lesbians, who are very often confident strong women who do not want to be dominated by a male.

Way to be misognyist and imply that heterosexual women want to be "dominated." Gross.

Ancient Sparta and Sambia. If it exists anywhere universally, it can't be genetic.

That doesn't prove anything...? I mean, I agree, it's NOT genetic. But it's environmental. Ancient Sparta wasn't exactly a healthy environment, so, using it as a "gotcha" is not a good idea.

It just demonstrates that it is not genetic, regardless of the environment that produced it. So many people rely on genetic arguments, which I find groveling. They say things like "I would never choose this". Well, same sex love is beautiful and good and I would choose it.

Strong disagree there. I have never experienced "same sex love" and I don't believe it exists; I have only experienced same sex sexual attraction which, as far as I can tell (because I've never been heterosexual to compare, obviously) is distorted, disordered, and unhealthy. I have never had a good homosexual experience, I would absolutely not choose this, and I would jump for a change or "cure" in a heartbeat.

So again. Not universal.
