[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump has appointed gay people to multiple major positions in his Administration. The Secretary of the Treasury (one of the big three cabinet positions) is gay. The head of the FTC is gay. Richard Grenfell, major foreign policy position, is gay. These are all out gay men with husbands. Stop being alarmist about homophobia where it doesn’t exist. [/quote]

Well this assurance that we we all alarmists didn’t age well for trans/non-binary folks, now did it?[/quote]

Maybe it's time to acknowledge the LGBT+whatever alphabet needs to be retired. World of difference between gays and lesbians and the trans/non binary. Not that much in common when you get down to it. Aren't the progressives the ones who keep insisting sex and gender are two different things? If so, then acknowledge it and stop lumping everyone in the alphabet into one acronym. [/quote]

Every trans person either started out as gay/lesbian or transitioned to be gay/lesbian. The majority are bisexual. I know a couple that were married last year. Two trans men married. I know many trans women date or are married to other trans women. Sexuality and gender identity are separate but being trans doesn’t exclude you from being LGB. You obviously have very limited experience with transgender people but feel like your opinions are so important that they must be heard on the LGBTQIA+ board.[/quote]
