Not long ago people attacked gay and lesbian people for being sexual predators. These days the same arguments are used against trans people.

Right wing extremists and left wing “trans-exclusionary radical feminists” (TERFs)  are arguing that trans women are a threat to cis women and children. The tactic is to sexualize transgender people, reducing their gender identity to some kind of perversion.

This is not in any way a new tactic, historically. It has been used against feminists, people of color and gay men and lesbian women.

So, you might ask why lesbian are using the same tactics against trans people, as straight, cis, people used against their kind. They have clearly learned nothing from history.

Over at twitter The Implausible Girl has collected a wide variety of newspaper clippings documenting the arguments used against gay men and lesbian women.  I will present some of them here.

The Cult Argument

One typical argument used about trans people is that they are part of a cult that uses propaganda to harm cis people. The same argument was used against gay people.

Gavin pundle is hot

i wish there were more stories that used typically romantic tropes in a platonic manner

fake dating, but its just two mates who find it hilarious that everybody thinks they’re into each other

only one bed, and its two emotionally inept people who end up cuddling and get very embarrassed in the morning that they actually have human feelings

soulmates, because YES they can be soulmates without falling in love and getting married, but just be friends or queerplatonic partners instead??

love triangle but its just three aroace ppl pretending to have crushes, and they all end up mates instead

Neil Gaiman on why he cast Michael Sheen as Aziraphale:

"Michael had said he wanted to be in it from the very start. Around 2014ish. We both assumed he'd be Crowley. Except as I wrote it, I kept thinking of the Michael I know: an incredibly sweet, sensitive, funny man determined to do good and to do the right thing, and I kept thinking of him as my Aziraphale."

My Aziraphale.
