Homophobes often said things like "now we have to accept gay people, soon we'll have to marry them". And obviously it was a slippery slope. We just wanted (and still want) basic rights, we want to not be assaulted and harassed, to have the same civil rights... LGB people never fought for the "right" to have sex with straight people.

But with TQ+ activism it isn't a slippery slope. "Soon we'll have to date them" is already a reality in many communities.

This is just one of many ways in which we aren't going through situations that are anywhere similar. Homophobes used slippery slopes to condemn us, meanwhile people are raising valid criticism against TQ+ activism based on the real evidence that they see.
