When they say ‘LGBT ’ they only mean the T
LGBT people deserve to be able to live freely and safely. I don't believe the EHRC's guidance is helping to make that possible. My statement on why I've signed EDM 240 to stand up for trans people in my constituency and across the UK.

Listen to this smart woman. It’s why the silent majority is not being heard right now. But history shows us this over & over, yet still we haven’t learnt.

I'm so fucking tired yall. Lesbians (and gays) have been persecuted for hundreds if not thousands of years because we are exclusively same sex attracted. In many countries we are still criminalized, tortured, raped and murdered bc of it. But the LGBT- "community", that should have our back, and the Pride-movement that literally was started by and for us, now tell us that exclusive same sex attraction doesn't exist, and if you insist that it does, you're a transphobic bigot. I thought we had progressed beyond the idea that homosexuality is a sin in the west. I thought it was decided that there's nothing wrong or shameful in being gay/lesbian, and loving only the same sex is completely okay. If you think lesbians can be into males (regardless of how they identify inside their head), ask yourself this; Why have society tried, and failed, to force homosexuals into opposite-sex relationships? Why was conversion therapy ever even a thing? Why are gays murdered in other countries for being gay? If lesbians and gays can be opposite-sex attracted, why don't they find an opposite-sex partner, to escape the persecution that society has commited against us, and still commits against us outside of the west? As a lesbian, I know the answer; homosexuals are NOT opposite-sex attracted, and that's exactly why we are persecuted and an oppressed minority. It's literally impossible for us to be sexually attracted to the opposite sex, and thousands, if not millions, of gays and lesbians have been abused, criminalized and murdered bc of it. So when you get on twitter and spout lies like "lesbians can like dick" and "gay men can like pussy", you are spitting every gay and lesbian person who has suffered persecution, right in the face. You can colonize our language, steal and redefine our words, shame us into silence and label us terfs. Homosexual men and women, ACTUAL gays and lesbians, will continue to exist. But fuck you for setting us back decades in the fight for gay/lesbian acceptance. You are the new conversion therapists.

Women and girls are individual female human beings, not anyone’s performance of femininity. “Femininity” does not define women or girls. The social expectations, projections, aesthetics, and behavioral codes imposed on female people do not define women or girls. These expectations are subjective, culturally unstable, heavily commercialized, and always shaped by sexism. A human performance is not a human being. Defining any individual or class of human beings as a performance interpreted by others is profoundly dehumanizing. The conceit that any man, or any class of men, possesses such special insight into the inner reality of female human beings that his imitation or performance can reveal the essence of women is not merely absurd; it is offensive. To define women by “feminine expression” or role is to reduce female human beings to costume, mannerism, or stereotype, while reinforcing narrow ideas about what is definitively “feminine” and expected of women and girls. That is dehumanizing. It treats women as products of perception rather than as actual people. Women are not characters performed by others. They are not social scripts. They are not roles available for adoption. Women are not constructed by society. Sexist societies construct stereotypes about women. The more sexist the society, the more aggressively women are reduced to those stereotypes, as if they are innate to her essential humanity, and deservedly punished for noncompliance. Widespread stereotypes do not become morally meaningful, academically definitive, or universally true just because they are common. Sexism is common. A woman in a patriarchal society is not a different kind of human being from a woman in a freer society. The difference is not her nature, but the degree of oppression imposed: the discrimination, humiliation, coercion, and loss of opportunity inflicted on human beings for being female. Being female is a human condition. A woman’s humanity is not conditional on her acceptable performance of femininity. The real moral test of a society is whether women and girls are recognized as fully human and equal in dignity to men and boys, while also recognizing their distinct sex as an innate and immutable human condition. Human beings come before human beliefs about human beings. Female comes before feminine. Sex comes before gender. Women and girls come before society. There is no femininity, gender, or society that precedes the existence of human females. It is all derivative. Sex is essentially human. Being female is one way of being human. The human being comes first. Social narratives come later. Male and female are human conditions, not identities conferred by stereotypical associations and fallible perception. “Femininity,” “womanhood,” “girlhood,” and similar abstractions are interpretations, prescriptions, and expectations imposed on people; they are not the people themselves. They are projections about what women and girls are expected to do in male-dominated societies, not descriptions of what women and girls are: human beings equal to men and boys, distinguished by sex. Women are not a set of instructions predicated on pre-approved socially constructed traits. We are not a sex object, appearance, affect, clothing style, marketing category, LARPing option, or human performance. We are human beings of the female sex. As individuals, we are as varied in personality, interests, conduct, and capacity as men and boys. A woman is an adult female human being. A girl is a juvenile female human being. Everything else is stereotype, ideology, marketing, or submission to sexist framing.

With respect Jamie, this isn’t true. In the 1980’s many towns had a single gay bar. These often gave sanctuary to transexuals and the odd transvestite (because we were being kind and understood they’d get battered elsewhere). None of these men claimed to *be* women, and if they’d claimed to actually be lesbians, they’d have been laughed out the door. At the same time, trans orgs (eg the Beaumont Society) banned gay men from membership. The conflict has always existed. *Trans people* did nothing in the fight for gay rights. Really, nothing. When OUR history is co-opted by those who write us out of it, we should call it what it is - a parasitic movement. Ushering in “gender identity ideology” has irrevocably harmed innumerable children who would otherwise grow up to be gay. LGB and T organisations came together because LGB had won the argument and the T wanted to hide behind that. And they bought the money in. Good luck if you want to start trying to reason with trans ideologues. We’ve tried for years. They have no compromise position. It was always a forced marriage that many didn’t want. And, frankly, it’s now gone beyond abusive. We need out.
Hi Nicola Historically, LGBT organisations came together because lesbians, gay men, bisexual people and trans people often faced similar experiences of discrimination, social stigma and exclusion, and found strength in campaigning together. That doesn’t mean sexual orientation and gender identity are the same thing. They clearly aren’t. Nor does it mean there aren’t legitimate debates about where interests align and where they differ. My view is simply that those debates are better had around the same table than not. We can stand up for lesbians, gay men and bisexual people while also treating trans people with dignity and respect. I don’t believe those objectives are mutually exclusive.

Peter & Alan. Many of us LGB have been warning you for YEARS that this was happening. We told you there are huge problems ahead, as gender ideology is in direct contradiction to being same-sex attracted. We told you to stop involving other people’s children. We told you SO MANY LGB people are sick & tired of being tethered to ideological cheerleaders for Queer Theory. We told you the homophobia was coming from within the house. We told you the blatant misogyny would have repercussions. You all turned a blind eye. You didn’t listen. You said “No Debate.” You branded us ‘bigots’. Why are you NOW feigning surprise that there is a renewed backlash? You CAUSED this. 2015. What changed?? Think hard.
Alan Cumming 'feels the hatred' for LGBTs is increasing He's alarmed by the rise in anti-LGBT prejudice & discrimination Social media is awash with homophobic abuse & threats. Violent assaults keep happening LGBT progress is spiralling into reverse mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-n…

The person who made this would be happy to see it shared as widely as possible. The world can now see the truth of “trans inclusion.”

The EU, other international institutions, and all their off-site NGO satellites are trying to fuse “democracy” with “LGBTIQ ” so that they are inseparable. They are doing this in many very clumsy and transparent ways. This is an epically terrible strategic mistake. It’s not just that social conservatives hate all the rainbow shit, but the T erases sex as a legal concept and the “ ” contains unknown multitudes
Democracy is about belonging. Ensuring everyone can fully participate in society, receive equal protection & live with dignity. When LGBTIQ people are excluded, targeted or criminalized, democracy becomes more fragile. My statement on #IDAHOBIT 👇 go.undp.org/qcX

I’m relieved this exploitative event was cancelled. I planned on attending to call out the surrogacy industry from a gay perspective. Any self-respecting gay man should feel disturbed seeing our sexuality used to justify commercial surrogacy.
So glad I don't have to spend Wednesday evening reminding Hatch Fertility, and their Irish enablers, that commercial surrogacy/ selling babies is illegal in Ireland. The issue isn't really 'security'. They were afraid of being asked some very difficult questions. @SeeryKearney @OCallaghanJim @WombsNotForRent @Independent_ie @IrishTimes

"Mikey", as Malcolm Michaels, drag name Marsha Johnson was known to his friends, was incapable of strategizing and/or organizing. He was so profoundly mentally ill that he received SSI payments for his mental disability. We were not led, inspired or organized by a drug-addled, profoundly mentally ill, grifter criminal who pimped gay youth. No historian has ever said that he was a good strategist, in fact, quite the opposite. Most in the Gay Liberation Front resented the distraction that he and Rae "Sylvia" Rivera caused at their meetings, particularly lesbians who objected to male crossdressers in general due to the misogynistic nature of their act. They were both banned from Pride in 1973 due to their drunken, drug fueled antics. Mikey was best known then for photo bombing events organized others. spiked-online.com/2023/01/28…
Marsha was just a good strategist spontaneous organizer for the rebellion. She certainly wasn’t the entire thing.

Homophobia for the 21st century.
As a straight woman you know nothing about gay men. Gay men are gay. Straight and bisexual men will say anything to get laid.

This infamous photograph shows a man being thrown to his death from a rooftop by a Muslim mob. He was accused of homosexuality. The crowd then cheered and pelted his body with stones as he lay dying, broken on the ground. This is what a "Free Palestine" actually looks like.

This kind of material is why gay men are increasingly hostile to gender ideology. We fought for decades to have our sexual orientation recognized as legitimate, only to have it erased by “allies.”
Planned Parenthood just posted this on Instagram… and I have questions?!?

The “It’s always been #LGBTQ ” is false. The acronym has changed over time because it reflects activist trends, and ideological expansions, not some historical reality. For many years, people commonly spoke about gays, lesbians, and later LGB. The ‘T,’ the ‘Q,’ and the ‘ ’ were added later as ideological and identity-based movements that have nothing to do with sexual orientation. That expansion was driven by queer activism and by queer studies, which began taking root in American universities in the 1990s.” Why does that matter? Because homosexuality is about sex: same-sex attraction. Gender identity is about subjective self-perception. They are not the same thing, and they do not automatically share the same political interests, legal needs, or social reality. Saying “it’s always been LGBTQ ” is not just historically inaccurate. It is a way of erasing the fact that these categories were merged, often without the clear consent of gays and lesbians, and then presented as if no distinction had ever existed. It is important to call out that lie because language shapes law, policy, data, education, and public understanding. If people accept the false idea that this has “always” been one single bloc, they are less likely to notice when sex gets replaced by gender identity, when homosexuality gets redefined, and when legitimate disagreements are silenced by appeals to a fake shared history. Truth matters. Historical accuracy matters. And pretending “LGBTQ ” has always existed in its current political meaning is propaganda, not history. So let’s be honest: there is no such thing as “the LGBTQ community.” LGBTQ is simply an acronym used by a lobby that promotes queer activism for financial, ideological, or political gain. 🧵⤵️
It's always been LGBTQ ??? No, that's a lie. See ⤵️

1. There are only 2 sexes, male and female, defined by reference to gametes and reproductive strategies. 2. Male and female are mutually exclusive categories. 3. This is true for all sexually reproducing species, except for a very small number of simultaneous hermaphroditic species (none of which is a vertebrate). In all mammals, sex is immutable. No mammal can change sex. 4. ‘Man‘ and ‘woman’ are labels that are attached, respectively, to adult male and female humans, in the same way as the terms stallion/mare, stag/hind, dog/vixen, boar/sow, ram/ewe, bull/cow and similar are applied in other specific species. 5. ‘Man’ and ‘woman’ are also mutually exclusive categories. 6. It follows that no male human can become female and no man can be a woman. So-called ‘transition’ is an illusory concept. 7. ‘Man’ and ‘woman’ are, therefore, sex-based concepts. They are not ‘identities’. To claim that, for example, ‘woman’ is a gender category and not a sex category, one would have to be able to provide a comprehensive list of the objectively observable criteria that make up ‘woman gender identity’ - the necessary traits, behaviours, characteristics and attributes that distinguish the said ‘identity’. 8. You cannot do this because all you have to fall back on is regressive and sexist performative stereotypes. Womanhood is not defined by reference to a feminine aesthetic. 9. In any event, sex is real and rooted in biology. It is defined by reference to objective scientific criteria. ’Gender’ is not real. It’s an entirely subjective construct that has no basis in reality. Sex and gender are not measured using the same tools. It is impossible for them to be either congruent or incongruent with each other. Nothing in the above is ‘transphobic’, mostly because the term has no valid meaning. It is certainly a word that no longer has any power. The above points merely contradict your quasi-religious, anti-science, anti-Enlightenment, ideologically-driven views. They represent the position of the vast majority of the world. No one has to comply with your authoritarian dogma or your narcissistic compulsion to maintain a status of permanent victimhood and it isn’t ‘transphobic’ to say so. You can hold whatever beliefs you like, but that does not mean that they are objectively true, especially when they are in direct conflict with reality.

It seems as if leftists have shifted their position. Instead of arguing that Islam is a religion of peace with a violent fringe of bad actors, they appear to now be pushing the idea that Islam can’t be criticized in any way, and that we must no longer bring up or discuss acts of Islamic violence, lest we offend the Muslim community. The idea that Muslims as a community are responsible for condemning Islamic violence, and for actively working to rid themselves of the kind of thinking and teachings that lead to it, has dried up and blown away. Anything Muslims choose to do must be tolerated because Muslims are doing it, and anything they do that might give sane people a negative impression of Muslim society and behavior is simply not to be mentioned. Presenting Muslims as having been victimized throughout history by evil white people has become standard, when in fact Muslim history is largely one of conquest and colonization in which for a long time, white people featured mostly as slaves — and when in most Muslim countries, slavery is still a reality, regardless of what the laws may say. The only major concessions that have been made to the modern age is that slaves are tricked into their bondage, rather than purchased outright, or taken as prisoners of war. The fact is that Islam is stuck in the past, trapped by its belief in the supposed infallibility of its so-called prophet, when by modern standards, the man was a child rapist, a warlord, and the leader of a violent cult, who encouraged his followers to rape and murder outsiders and “unbelievers,” preached the inferiority of women, and conflated submission to his dictates with moral righteousness. Muslim belief in the perfection of Mohammad and the literal truth of the Quran prevents them from making the same accommodations with the more toxic aspects of their faith that mainstream Christianity and Judaism have with the most outdated parts of their own scriptures. There are absolutely Bible verses that are as incompatible with modern life as anything in the Quran, but the difference is that we recognize that, and no longer use them as a basis for government policy, or allow private individuals to use them as justification for the abuse or oppression of women, the persecution of gays and lesbians, keeping slaves, or acts of terrorism against people from other faiths.
