I thought we weren't supposed to feel bad for self-loathing gays. I thought we were supposed to subject them to the same hatred and ridicule as the homophobes who taught them to hate themselves. I thought we were to point and laugh when a gay man hates himself so much he would rather be a woman than gay.

    That should have come with a /sarc tag because obviously that is not the case. Nevertheless, the whole "transbian" phenomenon is an embarrassment and a cause for alarm. And this is the other side of the T: lesbians being peer pressured into what is for all intents and purposes heterosexual sex. But it's the same essential problem: gay men being forced to "become" women to get a man (and in some countries, it is literal force) and heterosexual men getting no accountability for forcing lesbians to have sex with them. They are both attacks on the sexual autonomy of all LGB people.
