Yeah... no. Trans women just want to not be categorically rejected as women... which ironically is exactly what you’re advocating for.

Yeah, and the dictionary has always been so good at being progressive.
I’ve only ever seen lesbians claim that trans women insist that lesbians are ‘obliged’ to sleep with them. Have never actually witnessed any trans activists insisting on this as a thing. Only, as those links you’ve included actually say, suggesting that maybe don’t discount trans women as sexual partners straight away.
TERF bullshit
Every aspect of that is bull shit. The only reason that you hear this less from trans men is that trans men are less visible in society as a whole. A trans man started the “We need to Pee” movement. Many trans men have testified before the legislature at the state and local level. Trans men have been at the forefront…
It’s a community for women.
There are also plenty of Log Cabin Republicans and other gay cis people who don’t support queer rights.
It’s talking primarily about inclusion within the community. And in no way does it create individualized obligations for every cis lesbian to sleep with every trans woman. Do you sleep with every cis woman you meet? Because I sincerely doubt that. Nobody is currently telling you, nor has anyone ever told you, that you…
The issues that LG have with BT are bullshit. Can’t speak for trans people (though the above speaks for itself) but lesbians can be very hostile towards bi women (obviously not all lesbians! Lots of them are lovely and supportive!), their main problem seeming to be that bi women ‘always end up with men’. It might be…
Exactly zero of those posts are about cis lesbians being obligated to sleep with trans women.
The argument is basically just that white gays have completely forgotten that much of the privilege they enjoy was accomplished by riding on the backs of trans women of color.
No, they really don’t. I’ve never in my life met a trans person who said that anyone had an obligation to fuck them. If you don’t want to, you don’t have to. All they’re asking for is respect and dignity.
So every trans, and nonbinary person who stood up during the stonewall riots (and marked the first serious public discussion of change in the US) doesn’t matter? Sylvia Rivera and Marsha P. Johnson didn’t help spark a movement for this bullshit. This is literally the attitude hinted at in the movie Stonewall come to…
Stop hatin on T
A small group has posted a petition called “Drop the T” to Change.org, broadcasting their demand that three eminent…
It can both be true that Caitlyn Jenner is not deserving of the Woman of the Year, and that this guy is an asshole for calling her a man.
Honest bomb: I refused to do Thank You notes for our wedding unless my husband sat down and helped. I would have settled for an uneven split of the labor. A year later and only a handful of Thank You notes have gone out because I realized he had no intention of lifting a single finger even though he would often bemoan…
Emotional expectations for men are created by men. Emotional expectations for women are also created by men. Feminists are working on this, but if you want to see change, women aren’t the people you need to snark at.
Oh, hey, look at that: according to a new study, Yelp reviews appear to have a tendency to be racist, as well as all…
On Tuesday, model Maria Borges wore her short, natural hair down the runway of the Victoria’s Secret annual…
