Lesbian speed dating event accused of transphobia for not allowing men

Well I know a huge amount of gay men. Not one of them finds a fanny appealing at all. Not one!

Why on earth would a gay man be interested in a fanny?! What utter nonsense. Bisexual man, absolutely. But it's kind of the definition of a gay man that they're not interested in people with vaginas.

I agree this is rampant homophobia. Lesbians being expected to shag a man who says he's a woman, is exactly the same attitude of those foul men who think lesbians 'need a good seeing to' 🤮 to 'cure' them.

Just trans away that gay. Ironic that the trans lobby calls anything and everything 'conversion therapy' whildt trying to force gay people to shag people of the opposite sex. Apparently an irony bypass is mandatory when transitioning.

It's completely unacceptable. The pub chain needs for people to be shouting just as loud about homophobia as the TRAs are shouting about (non existent) transphobia.

LOL

Tescos was sooooo transphobic to me about this the other day, they didn't even ID me for wine even though I TOLD them I identify as 17 so they HAD to ID me!! It was disgusting! Transphobes.

They can always just identify their leg back though, apparently we do things like that now.
Today I'm going to be 23, NOT a rather haggard 45.

it really makes you realise how fragile women’s rights are in this society, when you appreciate that these people did so much damage to them.

You sound drunk. Best go get some sleep, homophobe.

You know trans men are women don't you?

ANd be careful you may lose that left leg.

Surely they wouldn't be gay then?
Gay men date other gay men, or they're bi.
Are we changing meanings of words randomly again?

Keep feeling yourself that and you’ll think your ok but I’m not sure you are ?but I’ll be my left leg a gay man wouldn’t be put off by a transman.
cya

Almost all men have a penis so that's a straightforward starting point if the person you are talking to is male. It really isn't bigoted to have a sexuality that doesn't include male people.

Grindr interactions apparently get to how many inches each party can offer quite rapidly. I know there are gay men who will happily date transmen but I am going to go out on a limb and say it's a small minority.

What is true us that there are a lot more bisexual people around than people used to think. I'm also perhaps unusual kn MN on finding pansexual quite a useful definition, and pansexual speed dating would be fun imo. However, anyone who genuinely thinks that lesbian speed dating events should have to include males is a sad homophobe tbh.

What are you talking about? A gay man is 100% going to be put off by a vagina! That's the whole point of being gay. Same sex attraction means being attracted to people of the same sex. Men want to fuck men. Women want to fuck women.

What planet are you living on? And is everyone there as homophobic as you?

Well, @SamW98, a gay male friend has told me that a hook-up platform he uses is no longer allowing its users to state any preference as to who they meet as it's discrimination. I believe it includes natal females in that.

I would add that from little knowledge and experience I have of transmen gay men wouldn’t be put off by a trans man with a vagina.

How do you know they have penises ? Can you tell if someone has a penis or not?
its a lot easier to tell if someone’s a bigot than it is if someone has a penis.

Bloody good on her for saying it straight and not being afraid. These men are like so, so many other men who get a raging hard on at the thought of "turning" a lesbian with their extraordinary magical penis of wonder, then get massively offended and aggressively outraged when, shock horror, lesbians aren't turned on by their stupid man parts.

I fucking love that woman's dour disapproving expression.

I'm sick of men honestly ....they feel the need to control EVERYTHING.

How does transphobia trump homophobia every time? And I didn't realise that had happened in Australia. Terrifying.

Because let's face it, dysphoria is no longer a dissatisfaction with one's body. Dysphoria is now a lack of euphoria. So keep the body and get extra euphoria. Win, win, win!
I'm honestly sorry for transmen having to share definition with these geezers.

Oh someone was denied a euphoria boner! PANIC!

This is bonkers

P.S. I do get it, it’s because men are more important than women. 😔

I see your ‘transphobic’, and I raise you a ‘homophobic’.

Why is OK to be homophobic (insisting lesbians include men in their dating pool), but not OK to be transphobic?

I don’t get it.

People just have to stop caring about being called transphobic. Literally everything is transphobic these days, so it’s pretty easy.

In Tasmania, Australia, lesbians are not legally allowed to hold any public events or have groups for women that do not include TW. A case went to the Anti-discrimination commission, and found that TW are W and must not be excluded.
