Well that one is easy. Everybody can agree that rapists and beastiality-people (not sure what the term for that is) are not acceptable because we view children and animals as being incapable of giving consent. On the other hand, the homosexual community was fighting for its right to practice their lifestyle between consenting individuals without being penalized for it. So there is your hard stop. Fighting for the equality and freedom for sexual orientation is different from gender identity, and doesn't involve trying to give those people more rights than an average American citizen (meaning they can engage in conduct that doesn't have to be consensual while everybody else does).
Maybe I'm confused here...but is your issue against the entire movement? Or against the modern absurdity it has devolved into by bringing gender identity into it? Are you against the equality and freedom regarding sexual orientation as well as the absurdity of gender identity? I clearly stated my position as being for "gay rights" while opposed to gender identity...however, I'm still unclear on what your actual standpoint is.

Here's the interesting thing about "consent" ....it can be a subjective term. When we speak about "age of consent" we have to objectively understand there is no magical date on a calendar when a person suddenly obtains the ability to reasonably consent. We establish that arbitrary and subjective date for them. Who are we to decide that's appropriate for everybody? We can also comprehend a thing we call "implied consent" ...again, this can be subjective and arbitrary. Consent is just a word like marriage, it can mean whatever the hell we want it to mean. Nothing is written in stone that it must always and forever mean what it means today. Especially if it infringes on someone's "rights" they are owed by society. The point here is, not everybody can agree. That should be brutally obvious at this point.

Oh, I know! I was here! I heard all the arguments! As soon as we legitimized sexual behavior through marriage under the law, guess who suddenly appeared for THEIR rights? The Transvestites! They've got to be given bathroom privileges! They get those and here comes someone else... more RIGHTS being demanded! LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ.... Never ends! There will constantly be someone who steps up to the plate with their sexually deviant behavior demanding THEIR RIGHTS!
Oh what's the harm in letting two gay people do their thing? Well, HERE is the problem! You are seeing the problem manifest itself before your very eyes and we can't ever stop this now.

Well what's the matter with you? Are you some kind of uptight hypocritical bigot? What happened to people doing their own thing because it makes them happy? All of a sudden, you want to put the stops down and say... no no.., we can't go there! Well it's too late for that now! You've already established legitimacy of sexual behavior as a right under the law. The genie ain't going back in the bottle because you're uncomfortable.
Look... I have NEVER been opposed to homosexuals being left alone and not harassed. I have always been fine with letting them do their thing as long as they keep it in their bedroom. The ONLY reason I ever opposed "gay marriage" is because of this "gender identity" nonsense we're seeing today. I KNEW this would happen. I warned people it would happen as soon as we legitimized sexual behavior through marriage under the law. Ohhh.... that's just homophobic fear mongering... slippery slope argument.... nonsense.... won't be a problem! Guess what? Turns out, it is a problem now and we have no recourse to deal with it. We've made our proverbial bed and now we'll have to lie in it, regardless of what kind of perverts crawl in it!
