Gay men being subject to abuse for their sexuality

Or Homophobia as we know it.

The belief that the trans-activists would stop by just attacking lesbians turns out to have been a miscalculation; gay men are a target now, and the community is only just starting to wake-up to the threat it is facing.

Woke Homophobia

I don't have a side my dear.

I'm pro-woman.

@FloralBunting

Ok, small voice of sanity here - this thread has been a magnificent example of a TRA saying some incredibly bigoted things.

I suspect that as evidence of saying these things out loud, it may be that the poster has had an epiphany of how this might appear and might want the thread to disappear.

Can I caution you to be careful in engaging so that the thread remains? Seems quite important.

Yes definitely a wise word of caution - tis a great read and may end up with a pile-on to derail (as often happens on threads not going way some would like).

This is a serious question. When a gay man has worked out than he does not find the female crotch attractive, what is he supposed to do about transmen approaching him if he's not allowed to say he's only interested in biological males? Just keep avoiding the subject in perpetuity?

What, in your perfect world, Bluebird, would you be entitled to do when you noticed he always turned transmen down and only had relationships with biological males? Would he have to go out with the next transman who asked him out to show he wasn't a bigot?

BluebirdsRequiem · 08/08/2021 19:32

@PronounssheRa

All we would ask of him is to not be transphobic towards trans men, or claim that his sexuality inherently excludes them. Easy. You are denying same sex attraction, demanding gay men include females in their dating pool, and flinging slurs at them if they don't.

You are homophobic and no different to the homophobia of the past.

I don't give a shit. You seem to think being gay is contingent on your conceptions of sex. It is not.
Sophoclesthefox · 08/08/2021 19:33

That post of yours upthread is heartbreaking, PurgatoryOfPotholes, and so closely mirrors the experience of a close friend of mine to the extent that I wonder if he wrote it Sad

I would not like to see this thread vanish, as it has been very enlightening,

Angelwings77 · 08/08/2021 19:33

The homophobic pigeon has laid his chess pieces out in full sunlight, please try and tread carefully around the shit that will pile up on the board. This blatant homophobia needs to stay visible for any lurkers

Thelnebriati · 08/08/2021 19:33

Of course it is. Even the law agrees, and two people of opposite sex have only been granted legal rights recently so you're being pretty offensive.

Are you trying to get this thread removed for some reason?

Chickenyhead · 08/08/2021 19:34

Well we could talk about the thread topic?

I wonder whether there would be merit in challenging the service providers bias

Nothing wrong with genital preferences in and of themselves, he should simply state his preference and NOT add any unsolicited commentary on whether he thinks trans men are "real men".

Easy.

Can I ask again for an archive? I've still not mastered it.

Thanks!

Jorrris · 08/08/2021 19:36

Who said anything about sex? You would simply be charged with a hate crime for misgendering trans women as "males", that's all. 🙂

Too late dude. It's already been established that gender critical beliefs are a protected characteristic.

What's plan B?

😂

RedDogsBeg · 08/08/2021 19:37

and when he says his preference is for biological males as per the definition of homosexuality, then what?

PronounssheRa · 08/08/2021 19:37

I know you don't, homophobes rarely care about how reprehensible their behaviour is. But do keep on showing everyone exactly what you stand for.

It's not possible to change sex though 😢

FloralBunting · 08/08/2021 19:37

I think it might be worth discussing what can be done to combat this recent resurgence of overt and brazen homophobia as a focal point away from further derailing.

To be fair, the thread has been a live demonstration of the abuse that homosexual people face on the basis of their sexuality.
Deliriumoftheendless · 08/08/2021 19:39

Blue- you are a misogynist.

You may like being one or you may not. It doesn’t change anything.

Your belief system has so far lead you to make misogynistic, racist and homophobic remarks. You can’t even accept the basic requirement for being trans is to be the opposite sex to who you perceive yourself to be.

You respond to everything with “transphobe” and “bigot” like Jane Horrocks’ character in Life Is Sweet responded to anything she didn’t like by quacking “fascist!”

It’s like talking to Kevin the Teenager.

Do you think anyone reading your posts is swayed by what you say?

Or have you not had enough attention paid to you today? Because to anyone reading who sees your “we will anyway” type remarks will not come away thinking you- speaking for the trans community- are in any way interested in how TRA ideology affects women, children, LGB people or indeed anyone really. They will see you are aggressively making demands and laughing about removing the rights of others (to single sex spaces, to define your own sexuality, to say no to sexual harassment).

I imagine you’ve got quite a lot out of this thread but you’re doing nothing for the community (“we”) that you claim to defend.

Rather like a lot of the other finger waggers.

Thelnebriati · 08/08/2021 19:39

It would help if moderators took it seriously, and marked deleted posts as 'homophobic' instead of leaving them to the imagination.

Chickenyhead · 08/08/2021 19:40

Sexual orientation

Not genitals. We aren't body parts or functions.

Just don't fancy certain people.

It's legal.

But the service provider knows full well that woman is a woman by sex.

RedDogsBeg · 08/08/2021 19:40

Transwomen are male, that's a fact, that's reality, that is a protected belief under Law, we can state it and not be discriminated against, nor charged with any crime if we do so.

Being as homophobic as you are, however...

Whatsnewpussyhat · 08/08/2021 19:42

But they are male and, like man or men, male isn't a 'gender'.
Correctly sexing a human isn't phobic or hate.

All we would ask of him is to not be transphobic towards trans men, or claim that his sexuality inherently excludes them. Easy

Being a gay male DOES inherently exclude trans men though. That's what homosexuality is. Why should a gay man pretend otherwise just because it might hurt someone's feelings?

RedDogsBeg · 08/08/2021 19:42

Off on a tangent - why has Bluebird name changed part way through this thread?
