I assumed that that guy was an HSTS himself. Internalized homophobia, perhaps? He and his two other topless, masturbatory buddies who were stealing the show at that protest aren't nobodies; they're all models and activists of some standing within the trans community. As Graham Linehan calls them 'central outliers'.

What i find strange is how gays and lesbians always tolerated these people. Trans racialism is more "valid" and legitimate than transexualism, and yet it's not tolerated. This would be like the equivalent of a black man pouring bleach all over his skin, getting surgeries and then running around calling other black people the n-word because he's "white".

Even if they were the most polite people on the planet, the very act itself is deeply offensive and they have the gall to expect gays and lesbians to support them in their magical transformation? Again, we can clearly see how ridiculous it is if some "trans racial" person wanted help from the black community they're so disgusted by to help them achieve their dreams of being white so they no longer have to associate with the black community but we're expected to clap for them as they try to pretend theyre a beautiful straight woman trapped inside a gay man's body?

These people have always been the original problem.

I think gays and women have been duped into thinking transwomen (because let's face it, it's always been about them) represent a challenge to The Patriarchy, and that we should all be united in this rejection of 50s-era gender norms. Modern transactivism is an explicitly anti-gay and misogynistic undertaking, and we needn't continue the charade of propping up people who actively undermine us.
