'We're being pressured into sex by some trans women'
BBC News ^ | October 26, 2021 | By Caroline Lowbridge

Is a lesbian transphobic if she does not want to have sex with trans women? Some lesbians say they are increasingly being pressured and coerced into accepting trans women as partners - then shunned and even threatened for speaking out. Several have spoken to the BBC, along with trans women who are concerned about the issue too.

Jennie is a lesbian woman. She says she is only sexually attracted to women who are biologically female and have vaginas. She therefore only has sex and relationships with women who are biologically female.

Jennie doesn't think this should be controversial, but not everyone agrees. She has been described as transphobic, a genital fetishist, a pervert and a "terf" - a trans exclusionary radical feminist.

Several people got in touch with me to say there was a "huge problem" for lesbians, who were being pressured to "accept the idea that a penis can be a female sex organ".

I knew this would be a hugely divisive subject, but I wanted to find out how widespread the issue was.

One of the lesbian women I spoke to, 24-year-old Amy*, told me she experienced verbal abuse from her own girlfriend, a bisexual woman who wanted them to have a threesome with a trans woman.

When Amy explained her reasons for not wanting to, her girlfriend became angry.

Amy said she would feel this way even if a trans woman had undergone genital surgery - which some opt for, while many don't.

Soon afterwards Amy and her girlfriend split up.

"I remember she was extremely shocked and angry, and claimed my views were extremist propaganda and inciting violence towards the trans community, as well as comparing me to far-right groups," she said.

Isn’t that basically what Bruce Jenner is? He’s basically “living the dream” now.

with women who are biologically female

What other kind of women are there? Robots? Androids?

All women are carbon-based life forms, hence "biological", and all women are female.

“I don’t want to have sex with anybody except the woman I married. What does that make me?”

Very smart.

10 years ago, on a odd board that later was labeled “Alt right “ (it wasn’t), a poster said the next fight was between lesbians and trans.

I thought it was nuts, but it was true. There are places were rejecting a trans proposal puts women at risk for hate shaming.

They pushed homosexuality so they shouldn’t be surprised that now there’s even more perversion. It’s a pity they don’t understand what love is. The normal life long love of a man and woman.

They have gotten so crazy that they have come full circle and are back to normal, i.e., a man with a woman.

Sounds like most of these Lesbians are having intersectionality issues.

I checked out Get the L Out Twitter site, and they have lots of tweets about men (transgender “women”) threatening their jobs, etc, by “ exposing” their trahsphobia, if the lesbian won’t have sex with them.

Seriously. Lesbians are being taught that transgenders are totalitarians.

Maybe transgenders are topsy-turvey Bible believers who are trying to convince people to follow the ten commandments.

Ignore reality. Perverts are hoping to suspend reality.

I forgot the descriptor super straight. Lots of synonyms: moral, normal, anti-perv, ....

That survey had to have been created by transgender crazies. I’d believe it if it said lesbians are most accepting of transgender identities.

I haven’t heard that homosexual men are being called transphobic for not dating transgender “men.” So far, it’s only happening to lesbians who won’t give transgender “women” the sex they want.
