I was peaked in 2017. That is, to say, that I had finally had enough with Trans Rights Activists and their nonsense after being told that our sexual preferences (because we didn’t want to date transgendered people solely because we have a sexual preference) are “transphobic”.
That did it for me.
When it comes to dating transwomen, I won’t. Transwomen, to me, are men and I’m not sexually attracted to other men no matter how much a man dresses as a woman and I can’t feel the way about them as I would women.
This is hardly a controversial thing to say. All of us whether we are straight, gay/lesbian or bisexual have a sexual preference when it comes to the kind of people we choose to have sex with: we like what we like and we’re never going to change.
In 2018 the study Journal Of Social And Personal Relationships surveyed 1,000 participants and found that an overwhelming 87.5% of the respondents (regardless of their sexual preferences) said they would not consider dating a trans person and would likely exclude them from their dating circles.
There is of course a perfectly logical explanation as to why nearly 88% of the respondents indicated they’d exclude trans persons but the author of the study isn’t at all interested in this. Instead, the author of this study chose to focus on what they perceive to be social ills: namely, “transphobia”.
From the study:
Even among those willing to date trans persons, a pattern of masculine privileging and transfeminine exclusion appeared, such that participants were disproportionately willing to date trans men, but not trans women, even if doing so was counter to their self-identified sexual and gender identity (e.g., a lesbian dating a trans man but not a trans woman).
When you cut through the ideological jargon the authors may as well be announcing that space is vacuum: lesbians aren’t attracted to men with penises and that sexuality seems to be tied directly to biology.
Shocking, isn’t it?
Rather than be content at discovering what’s ostensibly something so patently obvious the author is more concerned at uncovering bigotry.
While the study did not ask participants about their reasons for including or excluding trans persons, the authors speculated that exclusion was likely the result of factors ranging from explicit transprejudice, such as viewing trans persons as unfit, mentally ill, or subhuman, to a lack of understanding or knowledge about what it means to be a transgender man or woman, and therefore, what it would mean to date a trans person.
Speculated? In other words, the author didn’t ask presumably because either the thought had never occurred to ask or that there was a predetermined outcome to this study. Had the author actually asked the participants they may have been surprised that the answers they would indicate as to why they wouldn’t date a trans person have nothing to do with “transprejudice”. In fact, had the author even asked, say, a lesbian why they wouldn’t data a transwoman with a penis they may have been enlightened to discover that lesbians don’t do anything penis.
Again, totally shocking.
The authors conclude:
Examining and following the overall societal patterns of including or excluding trans people within the intimate realm of dating can be used as an indicator of overall acceptance and social inclusion of trans people. In other words, it is one thing to make space for trans people within our workplaces, schools, washrooms, and public spaces, but it is another to see them included within our families and most intimate of spaces, our romantic relationships. We won’t be able to say, as a society, that we are accepting of trans citizens until they are also included within our prospective dating pools; at the very least, on a hypothetical basis.
So the author, in academic language (and it that pisses me off something chronic that it’s put this way), is saying that we - as a society - should just start having the kind of sex we would never have in the first place. If you’re a lesbian, you need to date men. If you’re straight, you should date anyone of your own sex and if you’re gay, women are perfectly acceptable as a dating preference.
I think I speak for the 87.5% of these respondents when I say, “nope”. As much as I’d like to date Rachel Maddow (I confess a thing for intelligent, snarky women - she’s as intelligent and snarky as they get), for example, I don’t think she would be anywhere interested in dating me and it would be wrong to guilt-trip her into doing so, which is exactly what the author is attempting to do.
Because this is a minority engaging in what amounts to extortion. Nobody wants to be seen as a bigot, nobody ever thinks of themselves as being a bigot but the author of this study is calling you all bigots and telling you, in so many words, who you should or shouldn’t sleep with.
And suppose, for example, the blessed moment comes that you and your new romantic partner that you are not attracted to and it comes time to talk about biological sex?
According to Planned Parenthood, no. You absolutely can’t broach this subject. Not even for an instant. According to them, you are never allowed to ask a trans person about their genitals, their surgery or their sex life because you - and the rest of society - have a duty to help stamp out the scourge of transphobia forever.
To be clear, Trans Rights Activists forever make the claim that your dating preferences are “transphobic”. If you don’t date, sleep with or otherwise exclude trans people from your pool of potential partners then it must mean you hate trans people. What’s even worse is Trans Rights Activists have gotten non-trans people - mostly men who would never themselves be with a trans person - to repeat this nonsense.
In fact, to refuse dating a transman on the gay dating app Grindr (I’ve never actually been on the app but I hear it’s a great way to meet other gay men if you’re gay) because a gay man rightly called a transman a woman is enough to get a gay man suspended from the service.
This actually happened to a Twitter user who goes by the screen name @EdibleTom.
While Tom was nothing if not polite and firm in his sexuality telling this transman (woman) that he’s gay and not at all interested in women (“I’m only interested in males” - how much clearer does he have to make this point?) the transman in question turned around and reported him to Grindr who then, in turn, banned him from the application for life for violating their Terms of Service.
Apparently Tom, who is gay, was banned from Grindr for being…checking notes…gay.
This phenomenon is not limited to gay men.
Lesbians, who have forever been targeted by men precisely because they’re lesbians and feel they, too, should be allowed access to lesbians are treated to this on lesbian dating sites:
For translation purposes, JaneDoe is a trans girl who is not on hormone replacement therapy (hence, not in medical transition) and sports a fully intact working penis and yet if any lesbian were to complain that JaneDoe isn’t, in fact, a lesbian woman they would find themselves in the same boat Tom found himself in on May 19 - suspended from the app for life for being a lesbian who doesn’t include males.
This isn’t a one-off as I literally have many more examples, far too many to enumerate on this article.
It would be simpler if the men who call themselves lesbians would leave actual lesbians alone and just date other men who call themselves lesbians but this isn’t what they want.
And why aren’t lesbians speaking up about these male usurpers? It may come as a surprise to some of you but as I’ve alluded to in the beginning of this article nobody wants to be seen as or called a bigot and this situation where one is seen as being transphobic has some very real-world consequences.
Take, for example, Michfest - a Michigan music festival by and for lesbians that has been around for over 40 years and finally had to be shut down not so much out of dwindling attendance but that the organizers of the festival flat out refused to cater to men in dresses calling themselves lesbians.
In point of fact, if you’re a lesbian who operates any kind of business or service that caters to other lesbians you can expect that the men in dresses are going to show up and demand - often with baseball bats - they be included in whatever it is you’re doing lest you be branded transphobic.
Whenever lesbians march at Pride or at their own marches, Trans Rights Activists with baseball bats are not far behind to remind them they’re being policed and they’d better toe the line.
So what’s a lesbian to do? Well, most have given up and decided to throw in their lot with being transmen. A lot of the “old school” lesbians are no longer active in the lesbian community and don’t quite realize what’s happening to it as their memories of transgender people they knew from decades ago were “nice”, or that their involvement in Pride is limited to once a year and they’re no longer connected to it as they were in their youth.
Some have aged out.
As for young lesbians who feel left out and unaccepted for being lesbians the first thing they do is usually reach out to an LGBT community that heavily endorses the trans agenda and indoctrinates them into accepting it as part of their identity.
Finally, nobody listens to lesbians as nobody listens to women at all because there exists rampant misogyny, not just in general but within the LGBT community from some gay men.
Indeed, to even broach the subject of what it means to be a lesbian is to be deplatformed, silenced and censored. Just a moment ago I tried to access an article on Medium titled “The Great Erasure” by an author called Sue Donym, ostensibly a female (and possibly lesbian) writer who was also ostensibly writing under a pseudonym out of fear she’d be targeted by Trans Rights Activists if her identity were known.
As has been reported on in other articles in this newsletter there exists an institutional capture of the discourse on transgender issues by Trans Rights Activists; namely, any dissent on the subject is quickly shut down.
This is not unique to lesbians but to all women who dare to speak out against Trans Rights Activists: they can expect they will be silenced.
And that’s primarily why I am speaking up because, as a man, it’s a lot harder to dismiss me, it’s a lot harder to silence me and it’s a lot harder to extort me.
It’s also a lot harder to guilt trip me into sleeping with anyone I’m not sexually attracted to.
Snark on: My gay friends and I feel strongly that attractive hairy hung straight men should STOP DISCRIMMINATIN’ against gay men purelee ‘cause they gots man meat. Personally I’s luvs STRAIGHT SEX with $RAIGHT MENS.
Snaek off.
