A group of lesbian activists blocked the start of the Pride in London march today (7 July) in protest against transgender women.
A group of eight women stormed the parade route without accreditation. Then five of them laid down on the road in front of the parade and draped a banner over them.
The banner read: ‘Transactivism erases lesbians’. They then blocked the parade route for about 10 minutes. One of the activists shouted out: ‘A man who says he’s a lesbian is a rapist’
The group also had a banner that said ‘Lesbian = female homosexual’, as well as flyers with the organization ‘Get the L out’ as the headline. The flyer states: ‘The trans movement is… coercing lesbians to have sex with men. We firmly condemn this vicious form of anti-lesbianism disguised as progress.’
Lesbian activist: ‘Only women can be lesbians’
She continued: ‘Only women can be lesbians. A man who has surgery can never be a lesbian.’ Sarah Mason, founder of Get The L Out, told GSN: ‘It’s a coalition of individual lesbians and feminists. It’s also feminist organizations such as Object, Mayday 4 Women, Critical Sisters and Lesbian Rights Alliance.’ She said her sexuality is seen as transphobic and exclusive ‘just because we are women attracted to women.’ ‘We don’t want any kind of penis in our bedroom,’ she said. ‘I’m really sad I have to reassert this again. ‘It’s everywhere online – it’s everywhere in LGBTQ centres,’ she said. Gay Star News reached out to Pride in London for comment. ––– UPDATE: A Pride in London spokesperson told Gay Star News: ‘Every year, Pride is attended by hundreds of thousands of people who demonstrate that Pride still matters. Given the hot weather and in the interest of the safety for everyone attending today’s event, the parade group was allowed to move ahead.
‘We do not condone their approach and message and hope the actions of a very small number people does not overshadow the messages of the 30,000 people marching today,’ the spokesperson said.
Speaking to Gay Star News, Jan Williams from Object said: ‘Transgenderism is conversion therapy. Conversion therapy is wrong.’
I love watching the mentally ill QWERTY crowd fight each other.
A lot of the T's are nothing more than heterosexual male crossdressers. The L's never invited them and don't want them in their club. Straight liberals put them there.
And Lesbians and Gay Men don’t exactly get along neither, only when it’s politically convenient to do so. Otherwise, not so much.
Gee...I guess they aren’t enough of a “Protected Liberal Victim Class” (C)(R)(TM)(Whatever) yet...
Fun to watch.
The idea was to get all the whackos under one acronym.
“A lot of the T’s are nothing more than heterosexual male crossdressers. The L’s never invited them and don’t want them in their club. Straight liberals put them there. “
Liberals have been reduced to tribes. Tribes are notorious for discriminating against other tribes. Sometimes, they even kill them. (This is why Muslims are more frightened of other Muslims than they are of Israelis. The Israelis are a convenient outside force they can unite against. But, deep down, it’s the Muslim next door they are warry of.)
In addition to being tribal, they fight for the position of most downtrodden. Somebody who claims to be more downtrodden is dangerous and must be stopped.
Talk about First World problems.
Really? Are they allergic to plastics as well?
I find it amusing when they eat their own . . . oh wait!
The compromise seems to be "Red Privilege", i.e. only injuns can hunt and fish cuz culture.
I love it when Leftist identity groups squabble amongst themselves!
I’m confused. This is hard to unravel. So lesbian females don’t like transsexual female because they aren’t authentic female?
LGBT aren’t all one big happy family of people with sexual confusion??? Isn’t that why they are all LGBT???
Somebody HAD to go THERE! LOL!
Evidently the carpetmun**ers have something against the carpetbaggers.
Zatso? I know one personally.
Between the US and the UK it seems like Pride Month is going on forever.
Obviously they need a shorter alphabet.
