1./ Don't call me Queer. Another brilliant piece from a smart gay bloke rejecting the Q word. Such a change from just 2 years ago when LGBTQ+ bullies were busy squashing all before them; erasing women's hard fought rights & gaslighting lesbians and gays. tortoisemedia.com/2021/08/27/i-d…
2./ The fear then was LGB people would be tarnished by association with an extreme movement that supports medicalising kids, removing safeguarding boundaries and endangering women. A public backlash loomed and we'd have been blamed. Now every day brings a new takedown like this.
3./ That's because thankfully more and more LGB people are bravely standing up to say...not in our name. And not just because we don't want to be tarred with the freaky 'queer' brush. Even if the LGBTQ+ agenda somehow DID work for LGB people (and it doesn't)...it's misconceived.
4./ Women's rights, children's safety and scientific reality are non negotiable. But hey if you want to experiment with new forms of 'non binary' personal identity and how to express them knock your self out. Just don't expect us to back your queer project. Or call us queer.
5./ The hilarious thing is the LGBTQ+ movement is so unmoored from common sense and ordinary people it cannot stop itself from making nuttier and nuttier demands. Now it wants a whole Year of Queer. As Mark's piece says, rather than that give me just one Day of Gay. Amen to that.
