" Genital preferences" is the dumbest thing I've heard of. It's called a sexual orientation & whining about it will not change that. This is just bullying, coercive talk. I just saw a thread where a transman was complaining that a transwoman had "real men only" in their profile 😂😂😂. You can't make this up, they even know this crap is nonsense.

It's ironic because the author calls "TERFs" right-wingers (lol), but the strategy TRAs use here is a perfect example of a Ship of Theseus argument:

By moving on to talking about "genital preferences", they've already shifted the framing, implicitly, into one where "gay actually means homogenderality, not homosexuality". The implicating being that it's already not about the "genitals" but about the "gender". Thus they talk about "gay men" having PiV sex as a "gay" relationship but that "cis-gays" only wanting dick have "genital preferences".

Just another part of their corruption of language and inability to communicate genuinely about their beliefs, because doing so would reveal the rampant homophobia and sexism, not to mention the numerous nonsequeters and contraditions, of their ideology.

Since when is radical feminism compatible with conservative politics? Lol

Exactly, I LOL'd when I first watched that, but that's American leftism's political ignorance on display for you. I like the rest of the series and find it very useful though.
