I think ironically a lot of these identities are personal shields against the boundary violating excesses of gender ideology. Like these people don't want to be pressured into fucking transwomen or whatever, so they say they're demisexual or asexual. Or they can't or won't embody the ridiculous regressive gender stereotypes this movement promotes, so they go for Non-binary.

I can see that even if asexuality is something I found out about when I noticed that I was genuinely different from other adults. Not by just doing the... "LGBT label shopping" on Tumblr (I think I didn't really have Tumblr account back then and on different socials LGBT was mostly about gay/bi people then).

But I see that I am spared this weird, creepy expectation to be down for a trans person no matter if you're gay, bi or straight. I have a friend who says she's a lesbian but has a... bigger preference for dicks. I don't have any comments. She is super brainwashed in that regards that I am a bit sad for her.

I don't think I could stand your friend, to be honest.

To be fair she is a very decent person aside from that and her "beliefs" make me sad more than infuriated because she overall has this kind of personally in which tries very hard to be a people pleaser and is afraid to confront anyone. It's clear to me she was exposed to a group which shared that belief and brainwashed her into believing it that. It's super sad and harmful though and makes me mad how this whole movement takes advantage of people like her, who are afraid to question or stand up for themselves. Hell, even I prefer to be anonymous when I come here - because the consequences can get this bad. So I am more pissed off at the whole TQ+ movement which made her have so messed up takes on her sexuality. And I will not reveal more personal stuff about her but that combo of prefering dicks but as long as they are "on women" and some stuff she experienced in real life with men, makes me believe she may be bisexual but due to past experiences she doesn't want to ever try anything with men as long as they pretend to be ladies. Because of course she believes a transwoman is just like normal woman.

Anyway I think a lot of handmaidens of the TQ+ movement are also people who ended up coerced to preach the gospel. It takes advantage of vulnerable people... but to be fair that’s not that surprising. It takes advange of vulnerability of being a minority so much that it’s disgusting.
