The yoots’ favorable outlook on the LGBTQ folks has plummeted from 60 percent to 40 percent in TWO YEARS.
I HATE to say this, but gay and TS and TV and CD and whatever the #### other freaks are out there, go back into the closet because BAD things happen to you after years and decades of trying to force obvious deviancy as the norm.
Society LETS you exist in peace when you don’t rub it in our faces.
I AM NOT advocating bashing of any groups.
I’m stating what is REAL. Animosity builds and it ALWAYS ends bad for them.
It also happens to the very wealthy in free countries who try to push socialism for thee but not for me.
But neither group ever learns
Millennials grew up watching media which straw-manned Moral Majority types as hateful bigots and hypocrites and that Gays were “just like us” and gay marriage would make them go away. They thought by being “nice” that this would all resolve itself, and now that it hasn’t they’re fed up with it. I know this because I hear it all the time.
It's the dialectical model: thesis --> antithesis --> synthesis.
The biggest factor was pushing transgenderism as the next civil right.
Sexually libertarian young adults had no problem with “let me have sex / marry who I want”.
The problem was the next step for sexual activists - transgenders. It went immediately from “women marrying each other” to naked intact man in the changing room telling you you’re a bigot if you disagree. It went from “let me kiss my boyfriend without harassment, too” to kicking women out of gyms and women’s shelters”.
The issue also created problems for homosexuals. Lesbians get to marry ... only to immediately be told they’re mean bigots if they won’t have sex with biologically intact men in dresses who identify as lesbian. (75% of trans-anything are men, less than 1/4 have surgery, and a large number are heterosexual). So most of the transgender access issue IS dudes in spaces segregated for women’s privacy and safety. This is a violation of principles for feminists. And for lesbians who deal with regular harassment, they’re being bullied for not having sex after the public is celebrating you can do what you want.
I’ll say the lawsuit against the guy who won’t make a porno with the dude-with-breasts because it has male plumbing is a rare exception.
There is a definite culture push, too, to eroding consent. The article telling heterosexual guys that they should have sex with homosexual friends, try it, you might like it. (Admitting it is a choice and we can shape preferences.) Drag queen story time is a deliberate sexual imprinting effort, too, but fewer people care or notice that.
For sexual libertarians, the immediate “love who you want” turned into “you can’t say no” is causing a lot of this.
