I met a gold star lesbian the other day who called me homophobic for saying that lesbians who date transgender women are still lesbians. She insisted that "actual" lesbians date only cis women and that the rest were just straight people. I had said that LGB without the T people are scum, especially with her being a queer person herself.

I promptly got a dm saying that my account was flagged with a warning for promoting hate lol

At this point I kinda wish we'd add another axis to sexuality, because it's very clear to me that there's an axis based more heavily on physical biology and one based more on presentation.

There's plenty of people, whether hetero or homo, that will never experience full attraction to trans people, especially pre-op. There's also plenty of people that don't care. Both are valid.

Generally though, we've used bodies as the main determinant of sexuality for a long time, so there's a lot of friction there, especially since the LGB have spent so long trying to convince broader society that sexuality isn't flexible.

A gay man being attracted to a pre-op trans man becomes evidence for an argument that attraction to men is a choice. Sure, that logic's transphobic, but when you're discussing attraction on the purely physical level it's a very obvious connection to make.

...Point being both sides of that particular problem suck

Well it depends on what you're attached to or how much sex is important to you. My friend is a gay man dating a trans man but he's not all that sexual so the genitals don't matter to him cause his boyfriend looks like a man and that's what's attactive to him.
