As a heterosexual male, I REALLY wish they would say this idiotic, rapey nonsense to heterosexual men. Basically, having a sexual orientation leads to violence against trans? "Get over your sexual boundaries & sleep with trans to show support". How any sane person supports this nonsense ideology is beyond me.

Spoiler alert; they are not sane.

Honestly, I've never heard it directed towards heterosexual men or women.

Only lesbians and gay men.

It's nasty, and WHY is a founder of sexual abuse org so interested in curing a lesbians distaste for peen?

Creepy

I'm a 5"1 female it's good to know I'm strong enough to perpetuate literal acts of violence on males

I remember this story, it made me really sad

I'm worried about what she's promoting at her charity: "Think about your perceived trauma and think about whether you're being age-ist towards the person who abused you, because it might not actually have been abuse, kids".

The constant attempt to couple violence against trans women to unwillingness to have sex with trans women is disturbing. It is a coercion tactic, (would "emotional blackmail" be an accurate term?) and the fact it is being done by the head of a sexual abuse charity is terrifying. People have rightly called out sexual intimidation and harassment in other industries. This coming from the founder of and organization like Firecracker should not just be alarming to gay people, it should be alarming to child welfare advocates. She brings her own children into the conversation, so I wonder how she treats them.

Oof, the pivot from her "I am a WONDERFUL person, you should be PAYING me you piece of SHIT" to "I am so proud of you!!! Love and kisses XOXO" following the woman's apology video is disturbing. This woman runs an abuse charity, and is using abuser tactics.

The alarm bells should be ringing for this kind of stuff, not just for lesbians but for anyone interested in child welfare. She brings her own children up a lot, and makes it clear that she expects this from them. To equate lack of sexual interest to an act of violence has more red flags than a communism convention.

Jenny’s apology is so sad it doesn’t even seem real... I kind of hope this story is made up. A person with Tashmica’s sexually abusive views shouldn’t be ANYWHERE near vulnerable children.
