PinkNews: It’s absurd the BBC reported lesbians are being pressured to sleep with transwomen. That’s not happening!

Also PinkNews: Lesbians are reducing transwomen to their genitals! Can you believe they aren’t interested in sleeping with transwomen like this fine specimen? It’s all prejudice on lesbians’ part.

Gaslight harder, PinkNews.

Sorry, I've been very MIA the past few weeks-- do you have a link to this article? Would love to see it, that sounds like a big step forward.

Also, fuck Pink News.

edit: Nvm, found it in the article, my bad haha.

To sum iit up, Pinkews complain that a transwoman testimony was not include in an article that concern real women.

At the same time, they confirm that they are onboard with the "cotton ceiling" and that lesbians who don't sleep with males are prejudiced. which kind of proves BBC right

"The “cotton ceiling” is a concept coined by porn star and trans activist Drew DeVeaux, and describes the inherent prejudice that many cisgender lesbians have against trans women, reducing them to their genitals, even they are outwardly accepting. It is not about an individuals sexual decisions, which should only every be made freely and with full, enthusiastic consent."

Full, enthusiastic consent comes from shaming and pressuring people for not giving consent, eh?

the inherent prejudice that many cisgender lesbians have against trans women, reducing them to their genitals, even they are outwardly accepting.

The inherent prejudice? Inherent? Like not only was I born a lesbian, I was also sadly born “transphobic”. Outwardly accepting? Yeah sorry about not inwardly accepting men, i e having sex with them. Like what are lesbians supposed to do? Play pretend and go on dates with these men and try to make up excuses for why it’s “not working out” when both parties know exactly why? Get raped for a good cause?

Such fucking disgusting rhetoric I seriously don’t know how these “journalists” who write this shit can look themselves in the mirror in the morning. How about the inherent homophobia of the trans rights movement?

“I really tried to focus on my industry, because I believe it’s really about the systemic discrimination, rather than me trying to explain anyone else’s sexuality,” she said.
But Lowbridge, she said, kept bringing the conversation back to “questions [that] had to do with dating in the real world, in reference to going on dates with people not into trans women”.

God forbid the journalist keep you on-topic, instead of allowing you to move the goalposts.

It feel extremely baiting and like she had the narrative of the article written before we talked.”

Maybe that's because you kept trying to change the subject away from lesbians.

Poe’s first reaction was that she was glad she wasn’t included for fear of “more targeted harassment from TERFs”, which she has faced online for years.

Where is this evidence, pray tell? What, no receipts? C'mon Pink News, where are the screenshots and videos of all the nasty dangerous TERFs? Give us proof that radical feminists are seeking out and deliberately harming and/or killing trans women. We're still waiting.

this international news story about her posting terrorist threats

"Terrorist threats", are you fucking kidding me? I hate this world we live in now.

Lily Cade, in which she explicitly called for execution of trans women

I don't remember anything about "execution" or even violent innuendos towards trans women in her epic rant. I remember her saying, "men, stop being fucking assholes and do better". Sorry-not-sorry that TW related to it.

Poe literally says that she did not want to talk about actual dating, just "inclusion" in her niche industry. It makes sense why her story wasn't included. And the sexual assault accusations against Cade are accusations that could be leveled against literally anyone who was responsible for filming porn "I felt pressured to do it to advance my career" is a thing literally every porn actor can say about almost every shoot they have done. That is not legal sexual assault. If it was, Lilly Cade would be behind bars.
