Wasn’t said to me, said in front of me to my friend. Someone was saying that not wanting to sleep with transwomen is transphobic Because your only reason would be thinking they aren’t real women. My (lesbian) friend asked if she meant only pre or pre and post op. The other person said “doesn’t matter, You shouldn’t have to even ask that. Either way it’s transphobic.” My friend then replied with “I asked because I could maybe see myself dating a post op transwoman if I really liked her, but I have trauma that gets triggered by male bodies”. The other person “well you could always consider a sexless relationship until you’ve been able to get help overcoming that. There’s always a way and never a reason to exclude all women.” Before that, I had only ever seen that shit online, and it was surrounded by so much TRA speak that I was already just going along with that it didn’t register. It was an entirely different feeling to hear it in person. I didn’t peak then, but it was soon after. The person who said it is a heterosexual woman.

Help with conversion therapy to overcome homosexuality?

and never a reason to exclude all women

There is always a reason to exclude anyone and any group of people for any reason from your sexual life and dating pool. I dislike very tall guys (190-195+ cm), for example, I am excluding all of them from my dating pool instantly. It does not make me tallphobic, it does not mean I hate all tall people. I am excluding muslims as well from my dating pool (because I know we will not get along, and there no reason for both parties to suffer), it does not make me islamophobic either. I have more than a dozen of transsexual friends (funnily enough, they are all gender critical), but I never will date or have sex with any of them, I do not hate any of them either, the opposite is true - I love them as friends (we have word for this in our language). Love is not "I want to have sex with you", hate is not "I don't want to have sex with you", feelings are not only about acts of sex.

“Help with conversion therapy to overcome homosexuality?”

Not just her homosexuality. Help with being willing to endure conversion therapy to overcome both her sexuality and convince herself that this conversion therapy will cure her of the trauma she experienced from being sexually assaulted by multiple males. The person saying this shit to her knows of her assault. I remember thinking at the time that if a non trans male wanted my friend to fuck him this same person would be disgusted.

“There is always a reason to exclude anyone and any group of people for any reason from your sexual life and dating pool.”

Unless they’re trans, apparently. /s

I should note they initially said “I don’t know, but...” in response to my friend’s question. It sounded like they were regurgitating the party line.

Fkn this!

Those people and their allies are so homophobic and not even realizing that they are acting literally like conservative homophobes, they are even repeating word to word same words and ideas.
