Way back in the 80s, when I belonged to the ACLU that was the subject of a lecture on anti discrimination.
They had this transgender nonsense back then? I thought this was all quite recent. Heck, even into the mid 1990s you could make fun of gays on talkshows during teh day. When I was in college I was watching one of those Jenny shows or whatever it was called, like ummm, that guy who was the mayor of cincinnatti or whatever, and he had two gay guys on or at least actors pretending to be gay, and they had all of these women saying "what a waste" and the audience would cheer, and then the gay could be like :
bigothhssss!!!
\
and then the audience would boo him.
It wasn't about anything transgender. The lecture was actually about the discriminatory effect of marriage. That's where it started, then extended onto how rejecting offers of sex with same sex partners was bigoted. The logic seemed quite convoluted because the premise was that if someone has a right to have sex and choose you, there is no good reason to turn them down except discrimination. Marriage unfairly demands bigotry since you might not turn them down if you weren't in the artificial construct of marriage.
That lecture was one of the reasons I quit the ACLU. I quit NOW because NOW meetings were just a lesbian meat market.
I used to be liberal.
