The prostate owners in the replies aren't happy about this

What's the unbiased TLDR for the "Lilly Cade" person they keep talking about?

She's a former lesbian porn star, who admitted to sexual assault of other women (I believe a number of them were the fairly typical for porn "I felt uncomfortable doing it, but had to to advance my career). It's worth noting that she's one of the few porn stars who actually owned up to that and admitted it was unacceptable. She then went on a pretty angry rant after the article was published

People are now trying to make out she's some spokesperson for the GC scene. You know, because a former porn star is obviously going to be the poster girl for those famously porn loving radfems /s

So they are calling her a rapist for participating in porn shoots with other women who were uncomfortable with doing it?

2 things can be true at the same time.

Since when does the TRA crowd care about rape?

Radfems are militantly anti-porn so any attempt to try and label this person a terf is going to generate a ton of eye rolls.

There were a few posts about it in the past week or two... I saw this one but haven't read it yet https://saidit.net/s/LGBDropTheT/comments/8j5p/to_the_pussified_men_of_america_if_they_are_brave/

"Get the L Out" undermines LGB solidarity. Why are we supporting that on this forum?

Hmm, that's a good point.

I shared it because they are offering an outlet for lesbian women to tell their stories about being sexually assaulted or otherwise pressured to have sex with men. There seem to be very few outlets for this; and I think their work involving that BBC article that came out a few weeks ago about the cotton ceiling has done a great job of starting conversation about this issue. I personally am not interested in a "Get the L Out" campaign, I just thought the survey seemed like a good resource for people who might be interested in it.

Worth mentioning-- this sub actually links to them on our sidebar, s/GetTheLOut.
