Yeah, you're pushing outlandish claims that seem right at home on outrage media. I'm tapped in to the community. That is not happening. The opposite actually as recognition of non-binary folks has flourished.

You are describing the situation in Iran perfectly though, due to homosexuality being outlawed but gender reassignment is acceptable.

Interesting. I don't know anything about the sexual identity politics of Iran other than it is a fundamentalist Shiite Muslim country so that homosexuality is prohibited. Strange that they would accept gender reassignment

Possibly because gender identity and homosexuality are two very different things.

Gender identity and sexual preference are two completely different things.

I would agree with that, however I think that people who are or identify with a specific sex will overwhelmingly be attracted to and seek to partner with members of that opposite sex

We-ll, given my love life, I tend to be Ni.............not boys, not girls, but just no nothing!

Now, one thing that does bug me is that if some is, say gay, but they don't fit into the definition of the activists, say they are not out, and the activists treat them like just another unfeeling straight, can you imagine what hell they must go through? Sure, they aren't accepted by the main stream world, but to be equally tormented by the side that they are part of.....but they can't say?

It sucks to be "under cover" and sometimes, it really does hurt.

I would like to be a fly on the wall when you had a conversation with the trans activists you mention that supposedly want to eliminate homosexuality. Many trans people are homosexual/bisexual.

It's not a fly on the wall situation and it's not a campaign to eliminate homosexuality. Eliminating homosexuality would be a consequence of the activism if 100% successful which would be surgically transitioning every child who exhibit behavioral signs of the opposite sex, children who would normally grow up as gay adults on average

Yeah, I would like to be a fly on the wall when you tell them that is your interpretation of what is going on...

You haven't heard of trans activists advocating for puberty blockers in non-same gender affirming children?, even some having gone so far as to advocate that for all children so they can "decide for themselves" when they get older?
