Thank you. This is a really scary development, that I think has been flying under the radar for most gays and lesbians.

I shared this in the Facebook group and on twitter. You essay is fine. However, I think someone needs to show the manipulative argumentation of this person in terms of a detailed analysis of his rhetoric. I have a book chapter I have to deliver to an editor and I work primarily on some local issues. So I don't know if I will write anything, but the basically dishonest rhetorical tactics will probably gnaw on my mine until I do it.

This exclusive homosexual thanks you for your brilliant work. This sentence (and the entire piece) is terrifyingly accurate:

“The gender movement... remains the only political movement outside of organised religion to construe the phrase “same sex attraction” as hateful.”

Hadn't there used to be a lovely little slogan on the side of buses which read Some people are gay - get over it? Perhaps I imagined it

Excellent letter. As a heterosexual woman, I am always left incandescent with fury every time Tatchell gets wheeled out on GB News to spout his misogynistic rubbish. So glad you are taking him on. Thank you for your support for women's rights and good luck with your fight for gay rights.

I thought Tatchell was a big gay? Has he secretly been bunking off with some of those be-penised women, thus making him bi? I really am confused now. I love the idea of an open utopia - but not at the expense of a particular group.

The question is, what empowers this group, which you would expect to be representing Lesbians and Gays, to be what they are? It would be like the NAACP arguing for the acceptance of discrimination.

Lesbians and gay men need to wake the fuck up. The Right-Wing Christian fundamentalists of a few years ago are having a collective orgasm right now seeing how the Left has taken over the helm for them. The Left is trying to erase homosexuals in a way the Right couldn't even dream of. Stonewall itself is leading the way to our erasure and they're not even being discreet about it. I'm also sick of seeing my gay friends talk about this in a hushed tone like an abused housewife in the 50's talk about her abusive husband in a way so that he doesn't hear. It's way past time to speak out against this shit. No wonder groups such as the LGB Alliance and LGB Fightback are growing. LGB is NOT something we "identify" as and it is NOT a fetish like so much of the alphabet soup that has been attached to us without our consent. So now that these groups have jumped on board with us they're going to try and erase us now? Funny thing is...none of my real life trans friends have this rapey attitude towards us. So this is affecting actual trans people in a negative way as well. If I was a gay man refuse to have sex with a female because she "identifies" as a gay man, I'm "transphobic?" These people are mad and I was zero to do with anything LGBTQ+ any longer! I will never donate or volunteer to group that's trying to tell me who I should date or fuck. I'm done. 🖕

Good to hear from you, Dennis, glad you’re still there campaigning! As a straight woman, I know I’m on the sidelines here but I’m cheering for the LGB crowd as you are all cheering for us adult human females in this crazy, stupid gender ideology madness!

This Facebook group incorporates all the worst elements of shaming and jealousy. I though you might find it of interest. https://www.facebook.com/ourbodiesgay/

This has been a part of queer theory from the very start. Mario Mieli and Guy Hocquenghem both talk in terms of an evolution into some kind of universal pansexuality. Mieli describing mono-sexuality as being down to societal "educastration" while Hoquenghem in his "Screwball Asses" talks in terms of "homosexual nationalists" trying to forestall the inevitable societal evolution into (age of consent free) pansexuality.

I saw someone else make argument #7 only the other day...I didn't buy it, and now I see where he probably got it from. It's such a pernicious movement, I sincerely hope the tide is now turning, it does feel like the needle is definitely moving back towards sanity.
