This reminds me: I will never stop thinking “That’s how you end up crying in the bathroom at the gay orgy” and laughing incessantly. Can we please make this saying a thing?

“That’s how you end up crying in the bathroom at the gay orgy”

And now I want this to be on the new season of "Archer" as a more-colorful alternative to their established catchphrase,"And THAT'S how you get ants!"

Lol yes that's exactly the tone I'm going for and what I now need to happen.

OP is still claiming that trans men are men in the comments though, so he isn't 100% same-sex attracted

In a different comment he does say that he is only attracted to 'cis' men.

That means he admits women on steroids aren't men 😂

And that's my biggest problem with the whole thing. If a group concludes that pre op trans(wo)men are (wo)men, then that opens up a very steep and very slippery slope. A large, hairy, dad bod-ed man with strong arms is more different from your average "transboi" than most women are different from that transboi, so if someone is attracted to that woman in disguise, there's a significantly higher chance they'll be attracted to other women than the before mentioned man. If gay men who are attracted to daddies and muscle bears are now told they must accept transmen into their dating pool, then what's left to tell them not to sleep with self identified cis women?

What they're doing is blatant conversion therapy in so many ways, and they're only a quarter step away from demanding we be straight

Yep. The easy response to fauxbians: or simpering actual lesbians: “You say you like a penis on a trans woman, then what makes you sure you’re not into a penis on a man?“ It makes them look absurd.

I always find it so absurd when fake lesbians say, "Oh, I like dick, just not when it's attached to a man!"

The misandry and so strong with them and they play it off to get even more oppression points for it

You’re right it is generally rooted in misandry, which is why it’s so bizarre that they feel the need to glorify penis so much in what they try to pass off as lesbian spaces. Like just get a vibrator/dildo and leave us alone.

I can only assume that it's sexual frustration, they want to have sex with men, but refuse to for political reasons, so they find a way to reconcile those two thoughts by having sex with a man they convince themselves isn't a man. I know that sounds sexist on my part, but I can't fathom any other reason for why they glorify dicks on "women" so much while also saying how much they hate men.

I would assume they're just stupid trenders if they called themselves bisexual because they have sex with men and transwomen, but they make it all too explicit how they love chicks with dicks but hate men.

And btw, the dildo argument is what a lot of transmen use to say we should have sex with them, because they "can have any size or shape of penis" with their strapons.

Thanks for this. I think this is exactly right and adds a puzzle piece to my understanding of wtf is going on. I’ve talked a lot in here about the pipeline of straight women and some bisexual women who get deluded into thinking they’re lesbians in r/LBL so I’ve come to understand how they come to believe they’re lesbians. And you just added why they are just as committed to the delusion as the trans-identified males into believing they are lesbians and that the trans-identified males are real women. I think this is an aspect that a lot of GC/radfem women overlook. Some have a hard time seeing the women as anything other than victims. And many of them are victims in part, most of all the poor trans widows, but there are a lot of women who not only encourage this behavior in men but seek to induce it.

The vast majority of people's politics and ideas don't go past what you can easily slap on a bumper sticker.

People think "slippery slope" is an entirely dismissible """logical fallacy""" because they cannot think abstractly for a single moment.

The logical fallacy is, "we let the gays marry, now men will be marrying horses!" The fallacy happens where there is no evidence. Unfortunately, that fallacy is so overused that everyone dismisses legitimate examples of slippery slopes without a second thought

This probably gives a error 404 on his head lol

Honestly. They're men. They're just a secondary target for the woke crowd. Because, since they're men, they're still seen as a menace by other men.

Now..... try to ask that same thing on a lesbian subreddit and see what happens. Suddenly, everyone claims that bisexuality is ok and nobody is a real lesbian.

The top comment is almost spot-on. (I say almost because... well, I don't agree with the latter half.) "Sexuality can be fluid, but it doesn't mean that it (always) is."

I personally do believe sexuality is fluid & that technically every human is capable of that, as every human is technically of spontaneously developing a tumor. It's unlikely to happen in many cases, and I'm not saying that it's likely that Mr. Gay Is My Identity 100% Penis Only Supergay is going to wake up one day and realize he's now straight.

However, I never think this should be used as an argument to convince people to become bi/pansexual willingly or that everyone is inherently bi/pansexual and anything else is bigoted. Despite sexuality being fluid, I don't think it's a choice nor easily influenced. I believe it's environmental, and using myself as an example, I fully believe I technically have the capacity to be attracted to women, however due to environmental and possibly neurological causes when I was young I believe I turned out homosexual, and that's something that's proven very hard to undo.

I dislike the Kinsey scale, though. I think it's useless and doesn't account for people who's preferences do switch (something I hear isn't uncommon in bisexuals) or people who don't follow a linear scale entirely. Sexuality is a very complicated matter and attempting to "diagnose" it with such a simplified scale is pretty much useless. So I can't help but be wary of people who claim they are a kinsey something because it kind of gives an air of overconfidence yet little understanding to how sexuality works.
