Now the left is saying that if you are a man attracted to women, but you don’t find a man pretending to be a woman attractive, you are a bigot.
You read that right, the left has finally found a “love” it doesn’t love.
What do I mean by that? Well, what is the first thing that radical gays tell you when they are trying to justify their push for gay marriage, for instance? They say “we should be allowed to love who ever we want,” and they also say “We have a right to be ‘who we are.'”
Ah, but wait. Now, if you are heterosexual and only want to love a natural-born member of the opposite sex — and not one created in a doctor’s office — well, THAT love is now to be deemed “bigotry.”
So, apparently “love” is not the justification for the left’s deviancy, after all.
All of this becomes clear with the latest “study” that was aimed at justifying the mental illness of transgenderism.
In June, left-winger Zhana Vrangalova wrote a piece attacking straight people for their bigotry on the gay website Them.us. Vrangalova touted the “work” from a couple of researchers who found that the majority of so-called cisgender people (that would be normal people) would never consider dating a transgender person.
I know, let’s al put on our shocked face.
According to Vrangalova:
The high rates of trans exclusion from potential dating pools are undoubtedly due in part to cisnormativity, cissexism, and transphobia — all of which lead to lack of knowledge about transgender people and their bodies, discomfort with these unknowns, and fear of being discriminated against by proxy of one’s romantic partner. It is also possible that at least some of the trans exclusion is due to the fact that for some people, sexual orientation might be not (just) about a partner’s gender identity, but attraction to specific body types and/or judgment of reproductive capabilities.
This is all university gobbledegook nonsense, of course. It is also a pack of lies.
Varad Mehta of @DecisionDeskHQ had some great thoughts on this nonsense. Mehta tweeted a series of excellent observations about this garbage.
"It's your fault transgender people have mental and emotional problems because you won't date them." Now there's a winning pitch if I ever heard one. https://t.co/ldHEu3ODkD pic.twitter.com/YExvOCzqkI

Reality rears its ugly head at the end of this paragraph. But the first part is a Wile E. Coyote twenty-feet-off-the-cliff's-edge-and-just-about-to-look-down feat of death-defying insanity. https://t.co/ldHEu3ODkD pic.twitter.com/ZqR4Ye5xVQ

"all of which lead to lack of knowledge about transgender people and their bodies" – Something tells me it's not "lack of knowledge" that's the issue here. But that possibility is literally incomprehensible to this person. https://t.co/ldHEu3ODkD pic.twitter.com/MtyNb5QQIi

If your definition of "trans equality" is "heterosexual people making no distinction between trans and non-trans people in who they date," the "long way to go" will take you well past the heat death of the universe. https://t.co/ldHEu3ODkD pic.twitter.com/f2UY8ihLhT

The entire premise of this article is perverse and counterproductive. No one is obligated to date someone. Telling "cis" people they're "discriminating" by refusing to date trans people is a surefire way to alienate them from your cause. https://t.co/ldHEu3ODkD

We all know what is meant by "date" here. Which is exactly why this sort of "discrimination" exists. But the author can't admit that. Alas, sexual dimorphism is a thing even in humans. You're not going to get rid of biology that easily, try as you might. https://t.co/ldHEu3ODkD
