To start a thread about homophobia?

[Fallofrain]

In response to the thread about the homophobic attacks being dominated by conversations about misogyny.

I am a woman (womans right are important to me) and I am gay but increasingly it appears difficult to discuss gay related discrimination experiences without the narrative being diverted away to something else.

Imagine if you were discussing sexism and men popped in on everythread and made it a conversation on class then insisted it had nothing to do with you being a woman.

Everyones experiences are valid, please stop talking over gay people

This is horrible. @Fallowfrain has started a thread about homophobia and asked that it not be taken off topic, yet certain people insist on doing so.

@joystir59 et al Please show some respect and take your agenda elsewhere. Or just stop spreading your nasty propaganda full stop.

'I'll wait for some straight people to come along and tell me that was misogyny and nothing to do with us being gay...'

Oops, my bad I wasn't expected a frikin transphobe to come along and derail the thread instead! Apologies straight people.

And as a lesbian, active in the LGBT community in a city with a HUGE LGBT population I have yet to see these mythical transwomen who are trying to get the gay girls to have sex with them against their will...

Mostly the transwomen, and men, appear to be just getting on with their lives like the rest of us while dodging constant abuse from all corners...

Ok. I’ll keep fighting homophobia my way & you keep doing it your way and hopefully we’ll eliminate it between us.

I am a bisexual woman. My last relationship was with a bisexual man (with a penis). So, I am not averse to penises. However, I would not feel right (or attracted) to having a female partner with a penis. So wtf would a lesbian woman? I know trans people in real life and have empathy to their struggles with life. It bothers me, am I a bigot because of this? I wouldn't treat anyone in a discriminatory fashion for anything, but if I had a female partner I would want a female body, and the same for a Male partner.

Hopeygoflightly your experience is clearly homophobia. What else could it be? It's not people being offensive because you and your wife are women, it's because you and your wife are lesbians who are married to each other.

It's fucking disgusting. I'm ashamed that such views are still being spouted in 2019.

Im going to ask this thread to be closed as i definately did not want another trans discussion

Can we keep trying to just ignore the trans issue posters? I think your thread and the point of it is really important and it would be a shame for it to be lost.
