Lesbian women who refuse to enter relationships with transgender, biological males, are now being branded transphobic by members of their own ‘community.’
A Pride march in London was recently crashed by a group of Lesbian activists arguing that “transactivism erases lesbians.”
A flyer distributed by the protesters claimed the trans movement denies lesbian women the right to choose their sexual partners based on their sex.
“We condemn any pressure on lesbians – such as rape and death threats, or calling lesbians ‘transphobic’ if they refuse so-called ‘transwomen’ as sexual partners and do not accept the penis as a female organ,” the flyer reads.
In a series a Tweets, transgender comedian Avery Edison demonstrated the way of thinking these activists are now protesting.
“I have a penis and I am still a woman,” Edison claims. “I am still a lesbian. When lesbians are in a relationship with me, they remain lesbians, because they are in a relationship with me as a person, not a specific part of my body.”
Transphobes argue that a cis woman who is in a relationship with a trans woman is either straight or bisexual. They say she cannot be a lesbian because the person she is with is not a woman. This is wrong.

I’ve had multiple cis woman lesbian partners who are NOT attracted to cis men but ARE attracted to trans women. I wonder why that would be? (It’s because trans women are women.)

Current TERF messaging is that trans women—especially trans women with penises (hi!)—are incompatible with lesbianism. But being a lesbian is about being a woman who is attracted to other women. And the label “woman” is much more complicated than what genitals you have.

Genitals aren’t very important. If you’re currently in love with someone, ask yourself, “Would I stop loving them if they suddenly had different genitals?” I hope the answer is “no”. If it isn’t, your love is apparently extremely conditional!

Once again we see that all Cultural Marxism offers is a desolate form of eternal warfare between ever more narrowly defined groups of offended minorities.
In response to Edison’s string of Tweets, Ben Shapiro said: “This is how transgenderism absolutely obliterates homosexuality.”
