Every lesbian should be anti-trans — as should every gay man.
Transgenderism is exactly the opposite of being gay. It’s counter to everything they believe they are…
Gender-transitioning male transsexuals who hate non-binary lesbian anti-trans intersexuals create an atmosphere of gay/trans gender-dysphoria among androgynous people who identify as gender-fluid.
