It is absurd, you're right. But most of these people are glorified trolls who just want a reaction. Don't get me wrong, there are some things I agree with that are often mocked, but that thread the other day about lesbians having to suck dick or whatever is nothing more than some deranged people taking the issues to the extreme and in the process tarnishing the entire movement, which is exactly what's happened with radical feminism. |
Glorified trolls being given a platform..by being elected (meaning they have support?!) for their vile views though..its just wrong. Ada was not removed until they insulted the police too..which is even worse. The stuff about expelling lesbians who won't shag them was perfectly fine apparently. (I use them as the term Ada prefers, not meaning them as a whole group)
The ladies I linked to in my post are against the militant trans-activism and are transwomen themselves which has opened my eyes even more on everything. I spoke also to someone who used to define themselves as trans woman who now goes by 'non-gender conforming man' after working out in their head all the gender rubbish. Unfortunately he had started the process of changing and has taken hormones and had a boob job as he was convinced by medical professionals and others that he actually was a woman. So its proving hard to come back from and he is so miserable at the moment...Its scary **** that this goes on.
