‘LGB, Drop The T’ Trends On Twitter As Many In Gay Community Reject Transgender Ideology By Mairead Elordi, Aug 25, 2022 DailyWire.com


Excerpted from the Daily Wire:

Some gay activists are saying pump the breaks on transgender ideology.

Earlier this month, the hashtag #LGBdroptheT trended on Twitter. Users who said they identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual criticized progressive gender ideology and attempted to distance themselves from transgender activists.

Those tweeting under the hashtag expressed their frustration that, in their view, the transgender movement has co-opted the gay rights movement and turned it into something unrecognizable.

“The T hitched a ride a few years back, invited itself for dinner, and is trying to make out that it always lived here. It didn’t,” tweeted user Rick Westhorpe, who describes himself as “same-sex attracted” in his Twitter bio.

“Pride marches, protests, and LGB rights happened WITHOUT the T. I remember – I was there. I also remember the T wasn’t,” he added.


“No thanks. I’m gay (the G part) which means I exclusively like men – not women who think they’re men,” tweeted user “Joss.”

“Joss” also praised author J.K. Rowling after she tweeted out an article critical of the transgender movement, saying that she inspired him to “love reading” when he was eight, and now she is “fighting for his rights as a gay man.”

A slew of gay activists posted under the trending hashtag that transgender activists must be iced out of the movement because they have crossed a line.
In recent months, stories have cropped up about children as young as two identifying as transgender. Meanwhile, parents across the country have spoken out against teachers introducing the concept of gender identity to their very young children.

“We didnt sign on for this s***. We dont want kids groomed. Not wanting men in our spaces or to have sex with certain genitalia does NOT make us transphobes. We promised it wasnt the slippery slope they feared. You took advantage of our good will. Its gone too far,” tweeted another user under the hashtag.

Yet another tweeted that the pendulum is already “swinging.”

Various groups have formed to argue the point that Transgender Ideology is not only “completely different” from gay rights but is “ultimately regressive and actually hostile to the goals of both straight women, lesbians and gay men.”

One Twitter user above said;

We promised it wasnt the slippery slope they feared.

Yes we did argue that Gay and Lesbian rights were a slippery slope, we were right.
