Honestly,i hope i was wrong in my post about the majority of gays supporting the trans madness.It's hard to know when you have so many gays online that openly support them despite the fact that the trans stuff can contradict gays.

That's because the gays that speak out against it keep finding themselves banned from public discourse. I don't know what the majority of actual LGB thinks about the TQ+, but there's a part of me that's convinced that this is all coming from straight people that are pretending to be gay for woke points.

Or "bisexuals" who only date the opposite sex and "gray aces".

You almost forgot the "hetero-romantic" bullshit

Vocal youngsters. I don't know any gays irl who are supportive of the crazy political shit beyond just being inclusive like a regular person.

To me i feel like the majority of people don't want trans people to kill themselves, and can be some what sympathetic with their depression, but when it started getting crazier with demanding to be into women's bathrooms,locker rooms,sports,etc, and the whole "We can't say pregnant women anymore"language control that's when stuff became too much.

Of course, which is the problem when it becomes "they're weaponizing suicide rates to get what they want, effectively saying 'if you don't give me my way I'll really do it!", and no one has the guts to call their bluff because...well, what monster would call their bluff? Better to give them their way...

Sometimes you have to call the bluff. A friend of my best friend habitually threatens suicide over minor shit and she just took to telling him “ok” because she knew it was a cry for attention.

I'm sure she would be showered with affection if she did that though. And her friend would be shrugged off even if things were real for him. Because people only care about women.

Nobody wants anyone to kill themselves, but they also can’t hold anyone responsible except themselves, and the fact that they try to hold everyone else responsible is what people are taking exception to.

Unfortunately, we probably have 13 Reasons Why to blame for suicidal people thinking they can freely do that.

Yeah it certainly has a hysteria level that's off the charts. Wonder what's next. Anyway, did this trend much? I don't use twitter a lot but it seemed like a small crowd.

[–]Madsea 7 insightful - 1 fun7 insightful - 0 fun8 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

I knew several, and most of them decided to not stay friends with me anymore over the T issue. A couple peaked pretty easily, but they were a much smaller percentage than those that supported the T nonsense.

I knew one but I consider that some of these people do it because they are extreme people pleasers, and will do everything to please them at their own expense. That's what I concluded by being with this one gay man. He comes across as desperate to please others so no wonder he will support anything like that.

A lot of people are also just severely lacking in critical thinking skills. They get told "Remember when you guys were fighting for your rights? It's basically that all over again" and they just shrug and go "Well I wouldn't want anyone to have to go through what I went through"

In my neck of the woods, it seems to be gay men driving this ideology. My theory is threefold:

1) It gives them political power, since you can't have a political LGB presence without the T

2) Gay males are less impacted by trans ideology than are women, so they can avoid confronting the 'trans men are men' doublethink

3) Some gay men really don't want effeminate gay men like Blaire White in their category. Trans ideology gives them the freedome to purge the effeminate gay men from their community while putting a progressive spin on their own homophobia.

There is another theory that i herd.There was this old saying that the biggest fantasy for a gay man is to turn a straight man gay and if they can push straight men into dating trans women that it's one step further into turning them gay cause"If you're willing to date a guy that thinks he's a woman then surely you shouldn't have a problem dating me."Obviously not every gay is like this but it's odd that some of the "born that way"crowd is not taking that into consideration with straights as well.

It's clear you don't have a clue why homosexuals actually transition.

/u/usehername

on your /s/LGB_Discussions/ sub, you require that a person must be lgb to even be a part of the discussion...

so why wouldnt you be required to actually have transitioned before you can claim to know why people actually transition?

it is my opinion that the entire lot of you are a psych disease.

btw, the T is a part of the lgbt community.. been there, seen it, it is a part of it.. and guess what? you might transition somewhere in the future..

From my own experience, they are just privileged bisexual questing for money and power
