First of all, who dictates what is a "LGB alliance?" There are "LGB alliance" groups popping up all over. There is one for the country I am currently in, but it seems to be small/the page is run by a few people, and most of it is in a language I don't speak. However I read an English article earlier this week, that I since can't find (because again... most of it is in another language and I don't remember what the article is called.) that stated that this "LGB alliance chapter" opposes intersex rights.
No I am not kidding. They said that, protections against intersex infants that stop them from being forced through cosmetic "sex change" surgery at birth to make them "normal", is an act by the TQ+ to somehow promote gender identity. They went on to say that this was bad because "people with differences of sex development" (sic) need "special care" and thus it should be legal to give babies/children medical care before they can verbally consent.
Please note, it is not ilegal to give children necessary medical care without their consent, it never was. This article specifically means SEX CHANGE SURGERIES FOR INFANTS AND SMALL CHILDREN. I am a person with an "Intersex condition" or disorder of sexual development, and I have talked to many other people with similar conditions. I have read many stories from people who were "medically corrected" at birth, and it is never medically necessary. It almost always causes horrible health problems later in life, it causes some people to have significant sexual dysfunction, or not even be able to pee properly. It's horrible and it's only done to children who have a visible sexual development disorder at birth because they want to make them look normal, or, if the child is ambigious enough they may try to "sex change" them to the preferred sex. There are many stories about boys who have been forced to "live as girls" because they were born with a disordered penis, and things like this. It is child abuse.
The fact that LGB alliance is supporting this to "get back at the trans" is truly disgusting. About two minutes of research would tell them that it's not trans people who want to stop intersex surgeries, in fact they tend to be for it as well, and they use our existence to promote their "nonbinary" identities by calling us freaks and insisting we're all alien sexes and not men/women.
Why are you all still supporting "LGB alliance" when they are promoting pedophilia and medical abuse against some children? And before someone pulls a "no true scotsman" and says "oh well maybe this isn't a REAL LGB alliance chapter", then again, who dictates what is a real one? Because they are using the same name and logo and I have never seen LGB alliance of US or UK say "Hey please ignore (chapter) they are a fake one and not affiliated with us."
Not to mention I have seen all LGB alliance promote the idea that GNC kids, or kids who are trans, "would grow up to be gay/kinky adults." They are OBSESSED with children's sexualities and are promoting the backwards, regressive idea that even going slightly outside of traditional gender roles means that you're gay. It is no different with trans people obsessing over child's sexuality. This fucking account was posting pictures of actual "GNC Kkids" - boys in dresses - and posting creepy captions about how they'd grow up to be happy gay men!!! How is this possibly acceptable? How is it not fucking disturbing to obsess over a child's potential sexuality, or say they are DEFINITELY going to become gay because of fucking CLOTHES?
This boils my blood because I was a GNC boy. And I was sexually abused and harassed because of it. I have been told many times over my life, as both a child and an adult, that I am "basically a girl" and thus should (sexually) be treated like one. This is not okay. I refuse to support anything that promotes the kind of hell I went through, and I am disgusted and ashamed by people who support it.
Not only did I have to worry about being seen as a creep because the trans community was making all "LGBT" look bad, now I can't even use the "LGB and T are very different things" excuse, because LGB alliance too are now going around spreading pedophilic and hateful ideas. What am I supposed to do?! How the hell am I ever supposed to admit to my sexuality or feel okay with myself knowing that THIS ideology is representing me, and there's nothing I can do to stop it? It's driving me insane. I didn't think it could get worse after the TQ+ but it has.
Please, I am begging you, if you care at all about same sex attracted people, children, and/or people with DSDs, PLEASE DO NOT SUPPORT LGB ALLIANCE, either with money or verbal support. We need to disown all pedophiles and abusers, we've been trying to do this with the T by announcing we are not affiliated, don't let these ones represent us just because they claim to stand for same sex attracted people.
And some of you might call me insane right now but mark my words, I bet there will be a scandal soon enough when "LGB alliance" members who are saying creepy things about kids sexualities and advocating for medical abuse of children, will be outed as pedophiles/sexual abusers in time. These people should not represent us.
