HRC, GLAAD, and Stonewall are all run by transgender people, not lesbian, gay, or bisexual people. The acronym "LGBT" is all about the T. Within LGBT, the LGB are treated like second-class citizens. That includes gay men.

According to GLAAD's 2017 LGBT survey, over half of respondents were T. Graphs here: https://www.saidit.net/s/LGBDropTheT/comments/625t/i_made_charts_from_2017_glaad_survey_data_showing/

And these organizations' correspondance and efforts are far disproportionately focused on transgender people. By 2019 over 75% of Stonewall's, HRC's and Equality Network's annual reports were about trans people: http://users.ox.ac.uk/~sfos0060/LGBT_figures.shtml

Being transgender has become massively popular in the last decade, and it's fucking over everybody-- gay, straight, women, men, children, vulnerable minorities, everybody.

I didn't know that...aren't there still plenty of gay men high up in these organizations though? Any evidence they've all been replaced by the "T"?

There's always going to be some bad actors from every sexuality. Is it fair to blame others for AGP men like Rachel Levine?

is it fair to create laws that cater to AGP men putting them in the same category as those who have a full transition and aren't hateful bigots towards women??

You seem to be using the word fair a lot.

The whole point of the woke movement is to stop things being fair to make them more equal. They want people to be treated differently in school, in the work place and even in the courts based on their identity.

You can't argue against them citing fairness because they don't give a shit about it.

If you want fairness to matter then you need to work to root the woke out of every position of power no matter what group they are from or who they are nice to.

Stop worrying about if your opponents are gay, agp or tru trans. Worry about their agenda.

Yup. It's amazing to me how popular this regressive belief has become. I don't want to be treated any differently for my sexual orientation, positive or negative! I just want to be viewed the same as any other human being.

Unfortunately, the mainstream trans rights movement demands that other people treat them differently because they are trans-- e.g. saying, "I can say no to sex with someone of any demographic (including trans) and it's fine, but if a non-trans person says no to sex with someone who is trans, you're a transphobic bigot and should be censored."

Well, I don't think transition ever makes a person the opposite sex, so no law to recognize Transwomen as women or Transmen as men is fair or acceptable to me.

But why should women have to give up anything to cater to men's feelings? There are plenty of women who don't care if the man is castrated or super"feminine" - they don't want him around when they're naked or vulnerable.

The difference between being a woman, or being a black man, and being a transgender natal male, is that women and black men have no closet to hide in, while a transgender natal male can simply change his appearance and his "oppression'" disappears.

So how can it be fair to ask frightened women/ religious women/ modest women to give up their rights to dignity, privacy and safety so that a man can "live his truth"?

Women are not human shields.
