This was the case even in the LGBT community up until not that long ago. T was transsexual. They were accepted in the community and were a relatively small minority and generally same-sex attracted. There were drag queens, who were gay men, and there were transvestites/cross dressers, primarily heterosexual men, and tolerated but nobody thought they were women, they were just blokes in dresses and makeup enjoying the relative safety of the gay community. No doubt the existed on a spectrum from harmless character to deviant AGP, but the latter AGPs have pulled off a bleeping staggering act of manipulation to manage to weasel their way into the mainstream like they have.When I was younger, AGP's were called transvestites. They were often asked to come onto daytime TV shows where there would be a discussion about how they liked to go out in public dressed as a female, they would often have their long-suffering wife with them, who would always confirm that they were still happily married and that they were learning to live with their husband's strange little habits. The audience would be split between those who shrugged and said that it didn't bother them, and it was no-one else's business, and those who thought they were perverts who needed locking up, or at least a few sessions with a shrink. Meanwhile, us viewers would point and laugh and would tell our husbands and boyfriends how they'd be kicked out onto the street if we ever came home and caught them prancing around in our underwear.
I honestly don't know how they managed to change public opinion so successfully and in such a short space of time. To oldies like me, the thought of a tr@nnie coming into our toilets with such a perfect sense of entitlement, is unthinkable, what man would do such a thing, even if wearing a dress? As for these men who compete in women's sporting events, words just fail me. It's like living in a clown world, where nothing makes sense and everything is topsy-turvy.
I know that we can sit here and blame porn, the Internet and whatever else, but honestly, women can be their own worst enemy sometimes. We've sat back and let men just take everything. We've mooned over men wearing womanface, we've given perverts like Eddie Izzard free rein to grope himself in our toilets, we've laughed as flashers show their genitals on mainstream telly, and we've bent over backwards to accommodate every cross-dressing weirdo who prances before us, declaring that he's a better woman than we'll ever be. Still, at least we're being "kind".
Thank god for our few safe spaces. This thread. The good terfs on X and other SM. The women who are shouting loudly every single day to try to protect women and girls. The rare and precious celebrities who put their head on the block when they publicly support us. The lawyers who are upholding our rights and protections. There is hope. And light at the end of the tunnel (even if it is Trump holding the torch!) We've kicked mens arses before, and we'll do it again. I love men, I really do. But I'm never bowing to the demands of transvestites. Sorry, but no.
les bars existed then, and there's none left now. The rise of the AGP "trans les" and the disappearance of actual lesbians from the gay scene is no coincidence.
No words!!!!
and I've never seen a positive comment about her on here.
