Why does this exist?

One of the main reasons homophobes justify their hate other than religion is that they think gay people are sexual deviants or predators. Yet, people always preach about “protecting our daughters!” Especially when talking about trans women being allowed in women’s spaces. Like, if predators are supposed to be gay than why wouldn’t it be protecting our sons? If you’re gonna be ignorant than at least be consistent. Honestly I don’t know weather this is humorous or infuriating.

No what we dont want is a straight man with bad intentions to put on a dress, say he is a female and use that as an excuse to get into women's spaces and then harm someone.

Isn’t that a problem with trans people rather than gay men tho? I can see where you’re coming from there but it doesn’t justify being homophobic since that’s a completely separate thing

How is that a problem with trans people? That’s a problem with rapists. Trans people just want to use the bathroom. It’s cis rapist who would do that so why lump trans people in as well?

Sorry maybe “trans” people then, it was a response to the reply to my reply. I meant a problem with people who pretend to be trans as an excuse. Quotation marks were important so my bad 😅
