Only attracted to the opposite sex

Mostly / only attracted to the same sex

Ffs, they didn’t even give an actual homosexual response option on this survey.

Because being homosexual is a hate crime nowadays, so we have to subliminally let people know that even though they said they're gay, they may be pan or whatever other fake stuff is out there

What does that make heterosexuality?

That is also a hate crime, but the TQ+ crowd knows there are too many straights that will fight back and completely squash them in an instant. Not only are straights the majority by a large margin, but they have a lower brainwashing rate than LGB because no one can say that straights got their rights from transwomen of color, straights always had their rights. So if they go after the straights now, then the TRA movement would be destroyed.

Oh they don't want to go against the heteros. They know they will get the flak for it.

I think it's more that most of them are heterosexual themselves (even if they don't want to admit it), so why would they attack their fellow straight people? They can empathize with not being attracted to the same sex.

And the creepy homosexual transsexuals who really want straight men to fuck them actually put in the effort to pass convincingly enough as women to try and trick straight men into fucking them. They don't just sit around crying about it like transbians do.

That is not heterosexuality by any stretch of the imagination.

...I never said it was? I was pointing out the difference between homosexual and heterosexual transsexuals. Het ones put little to no effort into passing and then attack gay people for not wanting them, while HSTS tend to try to be more stealthy about it. That's part of the reason why most of the aggression coming from the trans community is aimed at gay people and not straight people, in my opinion. That and there's just a lot more heterosexual trans people at this point, especially if you count enbies.

Then I'm black despite looking like God took Ricky Schroder and Barry Manilow and split the difference. Seriously, there is no ideologically coherent or scientifically sound position that rejects tr-nsracialism but not tr-nssexualism.

Uhhh did you mean to reply to me with that? Because I have no idea what you're talking about now.

Actually, I've got the survey rsults, and there was an actual homosexual response https://www.ipsos.com/sites/default/files/ct/news/documents/2020-06/ipsos-mori-lgbtq-polling-tables_260620_public.pdf (page 18)

The numbers given are, that 9% (48 respondents) of all men and 6% (36 respondents) of all women asked claimed to be only attracted to the same sex (6% (8 respondents) in genration z claimed same sex attraction only, page 19).

But page 20/21 list only 3 women who identify as lesbian.

I dunno about other people, but where I live, I have heard someone who is herself lesbian suggest to me that we shouldn't be using that word. The lesbians are still there, although in low numbers; just, many may feel bad about calling themselves that.

[–]julesburm1891 9 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 0 fun10 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

...what did she suggest calling ourselves instead?

[–]reluctant_commenter 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

She calls herself gay usually. Which is not wrong if you take gay = homosexual I guess, but at least where I am at, many people treat "gay" as a continuum, they say "a little bit gay" or bisexual people will be like "oh yeah I'm so gay" even though they are bi. Not trying to bash bisexuals, though! It seems like gay erasure and bi erasure...

Thank you! This is interesting. I’m not really surprised to see that homosexual people are a small, but fairly constant figure across generation though.
