The Pushback against Leftism

Or gender. Many gay people are attracted to people of the same gender. Plus of course trans people can be gay also.

No.

Thats lies. They had more than 1 sign. They tried to bully their way to the head of the parade. Most people in the parade and crowd - including many LGB people took exception to their hate.

You don't know that.

In the pic below, it's certainly reasonable to assume that the people at the centre could be transgender. Unless one actually talks to them, how would one know for sure? The only transgender man I ever met, and is likely to ever meet, looked like a transvestite. And if I hadn't had known about their personal circumstances, it would have been difficult to tell the difference.

The point of my reply to Fandymo was to illustrate his "error" in the sentence "Strange that when you look at the pioneers of pride etc, the ones who risked everything to push for their rights, there are no men in dresses in any of the footage."

His carefully cherrypicked photo was easily countered with other photos clearly disproving his message.

Transgenderism has been part of these movements for decades. It isn't a new thing, even if it's a relatively small subset of a small community. People have also been transitioning for decades too. There may be some friction within these communities; there's often disagreement within groupings of any kind. But the fact remains that within the gay culture, for want of a better word, trans people found acceptance by and large, whereas outside of it they didn't.

What I don't get is why there is such a need from certain quarters to disparage trans people at all.

SOME gay men and lesbians do not want intimate relationships with trans people. Others are perfectly fine with it.

poor people would benefit by being given 30,000 euros. That doesn’t mean it should be enabled to them. .

You’ve spun me. I don’t know what way is up in your argument.

Do you want just a left vs right hegemony? Or do you want less hegemony, ie. A broader spectrum than left vs right… ie, LGBTQIA+?

I believe it’s just called Pride Movement now.

Not from the point of view of it costing money.

lots of people are not enabled with medical treatments which they ‘need’… the state our country and healthcare services are in ensures that.

you say it’s treatment ? I say a procedure. Surgery being the procedure.
