Any lesbians feeling a tad battered and deflated?

[ImmortalityMyDarlings]

Or is it just me?

Just read some plonker on Twitter saying that lesbians are just “femininity attracted to femininity”. Makes me sad and angry.

And transwomen are females if they identify as so smile

So close and yet so far

Well I believe that to be true.

If you are bigoted and small minded then I can only wish you well in that sad little life.

See i havent once been rude to you

Why so mean jellybean?

Not strong enough, Holiday. The phrase 'You are under no obligation' in this context just sounds like Riley Dennis and the insistence that of course you don't have to sleep with ladypeen. But you might want to examine yourself and reflect on what is influencing your choices.

Because the second bit is what lesbians are objecting to.

At what point does a man change into a woman?

When they smile?

When they put lippy on?

When they say so?

When they have their genitals removed?

The male half of the human population having decided to appropriate all the words previously used to describe members of the other half of the human population, all that is left is to decide is what to call the half of the human population formerly known as female and whether or not they are entitled to any human rights at all.

Men have made a concerted effort to remove women from the written record in previous times as far back as recorded in the Christian Bible and before. It is interesting and painful to witness how it is done.

Like I keep saying if you sldont want to sleep with a trans woman then don't. It's personal preference.

No! It is a sexual orientation. A protected category under the Equality Act that transgender advocates would do well to remember.

We just won this argument on the other thread (p20 - safeguarding)

Could you point dissenters over there and get on with being supportive of each other??

Well I'm a bloody dinosaur and am getting mighty fucked off at people insisting I'm extinct because here I am!

Kidding. I'm really a former male now a women and a lesbian at that. It is shocking that other lesbians refuse to have sex with me. Luckily my trans sisters stand with me and when they find out they hound the bigoted lesbian, troll her and punish her. Her friends see this happening so when I come on to them they do not refuse me because they know they will be punished like their former friend was. Former because she had the sense to disown her friend who now has next to zero followers from our community.

Of course if I could have been bothered to create another account you'd have a hard time refusing my claim to be a trans lesbian. Sadly tho the story I outline is what is happening within the lesbian community hence the protest.

A male body having sex with a female body = heterosexual.

Love that Twitter - there is hope!

For me, it's simple. People with vaginas are speaking out and saying that people with penises are trying to pressure them into sex and being abusive to the vagina people who refuse.
I will ALWAYS stand with the people with vaginas when they speak out about penis-pressurers.
Same old shit, different day.
Hoping that's not too much biology for MN these days.

OP, just a thought that might make you feel better. This had a huge impact on news and social media, and all over it I saw women telling other women what the protest was about. I could swear I saw dozens of light bulbs go on this weekend.
I am grateful to those women who stood up so bravely. They did so much to raise awareness.
Women are waking up and we're furious.

Yeah, op. Pretty deflated.
I imagine it will pass.

I just keep feeling quite frustrated with women who are married and 'safe' from this pressure proclaiming they would ecstatically embrace sex with a feminine peen if only it weren't for their pesky commitment to a female homosexual.

I'm alright jack type thing.

HolidayNoWay I have a genuine question.

You say you are female simply because you identify as one BUT the dictionary definition of female is

of or denoting the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs, distinguished biologically by the production of gametes (ova) which can be fertilized by male gametes.

dictionary definition of identify is

establish or indicate who or what (someone or something) is.

so how is it possible for you to establish that you are of the sex that produces gametes when it is physically impossible for you to do so ?
