If you speak out against trans, then you've clearly got a problem with lesbians, gays, and bisexuals because they're all in the same initialism together.

That is their horrid BS tactic. It is more important than ever to Drop the T. The Fetish Validation Act strips women of their civil rights.

What are we going to do about this?

    If a woman sees a transwoman acting creepy in a change room, shelter, prison, bathroom, or any other female space, she can't confront him, or ask authority to get him to leave. The real woman would be smeared with the label "transphobe" or "terf" and be arrested for hatespeech, or discrimination. So it eliminates female spaces, and removes recourse for woman wronged by transwomen.

    And this is what's cooking my goose. It's a burnt-offering at this point. Potential benevolent sexism incoming, take it or leave it, but I don't give a goddamn anymore. Not negotiating with terrorists anymore. This is a men's issue. This is my issue. It's not a women's issue. We should be policing our own. What in the hell happened that women have to be the exclusive front dealing with our shit? I'm male. You're female. We're different. We're different. Okay?

    I don't fully understand women's issues. I don't. There are nuances that are actually quite confusing to me. But, that does not mean that if women say that they want X, that I should stick my head in the sand about that. I wish more people took this attitude. You don't have to understand to support it. If a group of people says that something is meaningful to them, best listen.
