Janice Raymond was an activist for transgender rights before her partner transitioned (ftm) and left her because he didn't feel like he could be in a lesbian relationship anymore, at which point she immediately flipped and wrote The Transsexual Empire and started lobbying against things like medicare/medicaid covering anything to do with transpeople. Several other feminists of that time period had similar things happened and joined up with Janice Raymond.

"All transsexuals rape women's bodies by reducing the real female form to an artifact, appropriating this body for themselves. .... Transsexuals merely cut off the most obvious means of invading women, so that they seem non-invasive."

If there was a safe, reliable chemical (meaning brain chemistry) treatment for gender dysphagia that would make you comfortable with the physical sex you were born with, would that be something you'd entertain using?

Nope, for a couple reasons for me personally I guess. One is that I just wouldn't be very good on the idea of "Shoot me up with some poo poo to really twist my brain up" and the other is that I'd pretty likely hate the stuff itself if it existed, because boy would that be a sickeningly misused/cheered on breakthrough knowing people.

Back in the Tranquility Bay days, kids were literally kidnapped in the middle of the night from their beds and brought to those facilities. The instant they turn 18 they are told they can stay with the program and finish, or quit right there and then. If they quit, they were given a ticket back home and some cab fare. Usually, if you quit, the implication was that your family wouldn't take you back and you'd be totally on your own with $50 to your name.

I truly do hope everyone that had a hand in those, the ones now and the ones in the foreseeable future get the express route to hell in the end.

To be honest, regardless of what they say there's really almost no other angle imaginable unless it's just "gently caress the gays" filtered through another thing (Religious extremism or whatever), but that still ends with every piece of it being "gently caress the gays" so it's not much of a difference anyway.

Don't be an idiot. The guys have good butts because male players want to see themselves as those guys.

Have you missed the truckload of ladies and gay dudes that made a thing out of Genji's butt, hell Reaper's butt too, I've seen a buncha people into S76 being a grizzled older man, I mean drat even for as grimy of characters as they are, Roadhog and Junkrat even comes out pretty pleasing for a niche of people. I'll be straight up and say Overwatch pretty well feels like it was made to have something for everyone/anyone, not just on accident or coincidence either really, like there's a point of the designs going from 'Guy has good body so dudes want to be like him for power fantasy' to 'Cyborg man is basically wearing a fundoshi on the back end' which feels like it's appealing to something other than your average straight guy looking for a cool design.

Yeah pretty much, no kidding there's A Thing of guys wanting pretty ladies in their games to ogle, which sucks as usual, but you can come around to the idea that guys in games being hot isn't solely for straight guys to wanna be them anymore too. It's been this way for a while despite how much people wanted to disbelieve or 'jokingly' downplay it, but a whole, WHOLE lot of women and LGBT people play games, it's not even a stretch to imagine a lot of dudes in games can be/are designed to appeal to them as well as power fantasies and junk. I mean drat, Square Enix doesn't even try to hide it anymore that they make pretty dudes for ladies when it comes to Final Fantasy for instance.

Also bisexual women are the victims of sexual violence at a higher rate than most other demographics, which is something that also seems like a political issue to me.

That really seems like a thing that could just be unfortunately coincidental to the horrible statistics women have with sexual violence across the board. With how much of a massive issue it is period, the rates among a small minority group kind of naturally turn out super high because as already said it's huge problem for women as a whole, I wouldn't figure it's anything really specific to being bisexual that's not also an issue faced the same by lesbians, I mean considering the things written there are exactly the same kinds of thing lesbians have to deal with, being sexualized up as a thing for men, corrective assault and so on.

There seems to be an increasingly prevalent trend of "progressive" writers singling out and disparaging white gay men in a way that they would never talk about any other minority group in any context. Pretty much nothing in these articles is backed up be even a single shred of factual evidence, the writer just seems to be blaming all sorts of social problems on white gay men because their level of privilege makes it acceptable to do so. There's just so much here that would never be accepted when discussing another minority group, but is considered acceptable by these people because of their oppression olympics view of identity politics.

It's some bullshit.

It's super cool that I don't qualify as "minority enough" I guess because I'm too light of a guy of italian+mexican heritage (Actually a woman but woops about probably ever getting that addressed and fixed any time soon), even though I still belong to a group where plenty of people would love to beat me to death solely for existing or having the gall to show affection or even just closeness to a boyfriend anywhere in public. I just wonder when my lack of melanin will also somehow let me get around all the brutal transphobia that becomes more common all the time as well.

The people who also get on about "You can just blend in and hide it and be an average 'white' person though!" can also feel free to go to hell, please do advocate a queer person just get back in the closet some more.

Woopee, they're literally opening the camps now.

"Russian newspapers and human rights groups report that more than 100 gay men have been detained “in connection with their non-traditional sexual orientation, or suspicion of such” as part of a purge. Several people were also reportedly feared dead following violent raids. In a chilling response, a Chechen government spokesperson denied that there are any gay people to detain, insisting that “you can’t detain and harass someone who doesn’t exist in the republic”. The Kremlin denied any knowledge of a purge. The detainees face electric shock torture and violent beatings, while some of them have been held to ransom and used to extort their families."
