My response to this is: Do not compare the struggles, discrimination, mistreatment and ostracism faced by the gay men, lesbians and bisexuals who came before you to the inconvenience of people refusing to entertain your narcissistic delusions. You’re not oppressed, you’re just an attention-seeker.

I wonder what these people think being 'discriminated against' actually means.

Someone telling you they don't want to date you is a form of discrimination in the strictest, literal sense of the word. I discriminate against the plain brown bread when I buy something else at the supermarket. Choices are inherently discriminatory.

But I get the impression that a lot of people (not just genderspecials) think 'not getting what I want' is equal to discrimination, and then they're super quick to pull out their stack of identity cards and play whichever one will be most politically expedient at any given time.

'You only experience sexual attraction very rarely? We don't cater for your kind.'

'Vote? Don't make me laugh. Only people who are attracted to three or fewer genders get to vote.'

'I'm afraid we only employ people who rigidly adhere to gender stereotypes. Please see yourself out.'

'Excuse me! Excuse me you can't be in this half of the beach, you have to use the omnisexual beach over there.'

While I'm glad to see that instances of real discrimination are on the wane such that these people have to manufacture tragic little tales in their heads, I definitely think that, as a collective, Western society needs to move away from the victim-as-moral-authority mindset that we've created for ourselves.

The problem is they mistakenly believe that it's wrong for people to reject them as dating prospects for the reason of being massive basket cases. But ultimately they're the ones signalling they're a massive headache as far as dating prospects and thus not worth bothering with, so they really are shifting the blame from themselves to everyone else.

"It can't possibly be that I'm hugely unattractive!" etc. An entire generation is being trained to be incels.

My guess it went something like this:

"I'm genderomnipanqueertwospiritdruzedemiaceromanticbipanphobic"

"lol that sounds like bullshit to me"

"Is me being a narcissistic asshole driving everyone away from me? NO! They're just hateful bigots!"

Whatever helps these people justify not changing their shitty personalities I guess.

Honestly, a lot of the ''discrimination'' bi people face from lesbians and gay men is mostly a result of them just not reading the room. Most well known example I can think of is the bisexual woman who thought it was appropriate to write an article after Pulse that was essentially all about her struggle being a bisexual woman in a relationship with a man, wondering if she was allowed to be ''sad'' about what happened. The world really didn't need that article.

Bi women like her are the quintessential 'bi queer woman' so I appreciate how annoying that can be for lesbians and gay men.

Also, about the first tweet - it's really hard to believe everything the media tells us about trans people is a lie when most of the things in the media are what led me to no longer support the trans community years before the media even picked up on it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Tbh, I feel like almost all the gay/lesbian crankiness to bi people is one of four things. 1. Straight people who pretend to be bi for woke points and proceed to lecture actual LGB about being LGB 2. Bi people who pretend to be gay and don’t care how they fuck over gays and lesbians (“I love my girlfriend’s penis. Every lesbian does!”) 3. Bi people lecturing LG about how we could just be fluid 4. Bi people in straight relationships who can’t accept they’re in a straight relationship and need to shout about how “queer” they are.

The first doesn’t even actually involve bi people. The rest are shitty and tone deaf. If LG people are dumping on bi people simply for being bi and owning it, fuck that forever. It’s not okay. However, bi people who want to dump on LG can’t get mad if we don’t like it.

Except what the "mainstream media" said was that gays and lesbians were as crazy and confused as you. And this guy forgets to admit he's basically in an open war with the bisexuals where every 3 seconds on the bisexual subreddits, they need to incessantly prostrate themselves by saying, "bi does not mean 2! bisexuality is not transphobic!"

Funny how the transexuals stab each other and are at war with one another, invalidating each others identity and eating each other alive with the "you dont need dysphoria to be trans" making a mockery of and delegitimizing most transexuals ; omnisexuals, pansexuals, and polysexuals betray, delegitimize and politically stab bisexuals in the back by trying to make them the face of "transphobia" by making bisexual teenagers explain why theyre clearly into both genitals but not into circus clowns.

What these people can all agree on after all this backstabbing is that it's better if they all team up and pull out their knives to go for the gays and the lesbians. Yes, we dont like you for trivializing our civil rights struggle and trying to exploit our community by latching on to it thinking it's about personal exploration rather than the political goal of removing homophobia from society. Thats why you have 300 genders and sexualities..because it's a fun game for you.

Walk me through how the LGB community is homophobic. Really. I’m interested how, as a group of people united by same-sex attraction, we would be opposed to same-sex attraction. I’m all ears, folks.

They'll claim it's because of gatekeeping. Known by normal people as having real definitions for gay and lesbian.

The same way people claim that any black person who doesn't go all in with BLM and CRT must be a racist.

Greysexual ? He likes grey people ?

Acording to the TRAs, an individual is "greysexual" when they feel sexual attraction sometimes/rarely. You know, that thing that normal people are calling low sexdrive...

Imagine being opressed by the LGB people for noticing your narcissism. It's so hard to live when you're excluded by the community formed to support same-sex attracted people... not genderspecial semisexual narcissts.
