Defending Gay Kids

by Stephen H. Miller on June 27, 2023

More gays and lesbians are catching on:

The New Neo writes: “The message is of body integrity, goodness, and wholeness, about which today’s children probably need a ton of reassurance. Unfortunately, they’re not watching Mr. Rogers anymore.”

Sage advice from James Kirchick:

And Deroy Murdock says “It’s Time For A Big, Fat Gay Divorce From The Alphabet People”:

GLAAD is endangering gay kids:

Censorship is alive and well, @glaad trying to censor opposing opinions about a subject MANY transsexuals disagree with. Medical transition of minors. Censorship usually means you do not have the facts to back up your claims so you try to silence your opposition. Remember @glaad… pic.twitter.com/6VwFSFIvCp

Wrapping Up Pride 2023

by Stephen H. Miller on June 24, 2023

Ben Kawaller adds: “If the gay activism I grew up with was about securing equal rights, LGBTQ+ activism looks more like a cultural project aimed at reforming our ideas about gender and sexuality. It also doesn’t seem to be able to help itself from looking absurd.”

Andrew Sullivan makes a similar point:

Below, progressive activists want Republicans to be anti-gay.

And now this!

NYC Pride – 6/25/2023
My name is K. Yang, I'm a former trans rights activist & LGBT non-profit whistleblower. I was just kicked, hit, pushed, mobbed by dozens of people in Washington Square Park. ♂️ who identify as ♀️ called me "bitch" & assaulted me. @KnownHeretic @bjportraits pic.twitter.com/4J9AaFXSEf

HRC’s ‘Emergency’ Declaration

by Stephen H. Miller on June 8, 2023

The Human Rights Campaign issues a warning to be afraid…be very afraid:

🚨 Our statement on the @HRC's "state of emergency" PR stunt.

TLDR: The Human Rights Campaign perpetually fear-mongers that the LGBT community is in grave danger in order to gin up donations and justify their existence.

We encourage them to read a history book. pic.twitter.com/eHL8q9qgii

Non-straight Americans have never enjoyed more rights or broad acceptance in our nation’s laws/culture than we do today. To effectively suggest — with a dramatic, first-ever “emergency” declaration — that it’s never been worse (dating back to the early 80s!) is really something. https://t.co/9MOKXiHePv

Via the Washington Times:
>>Mr. Moran said the problem is that HRC has redefined support for LGBTQ rights to include “trans surgeries for minors, biological men competing in women’s sports, and sex and gender identity lessons in kindergarten.”<<

“The HRC’s latest PR stunt is so ignorantly detached from the incredible LGBT progress over the past decade that we’d be shocked if their donors even buy it,” Log Cabin Republicans President Charles Moran told The Washington Times.

The gender ideology narrative is failing to convince the masses, so it’s an “emergency”!

Promoting the medical transitioning of gay kids is the real emergency that gay people should be responding to:

Guy Benson on what we should celebrate:

It’s pride month, which means it’s time for a lot of noise — from corporate posturing to culture warriors’ endless competing grievances (sometimes they have a point, on both “sides”). There are any number of things ‘Pride’ *doesn’t* mean to me — but here’s what it does:

Reclaiming Gay History

by Stephen H. Miller on June 4, 2023

The “transgender-led Stonewall” myth is popping up everywhere:

Progressives are erasing gay history in favor of a false narrative. https://t.co/LMBzgs2iE7

No Longer a ‘Gay’ Movement, for Sure

by Stephen H. Miller on May 31, 2023

For gay men and lesbians, the LGBTQ+ movement has marginalized our identities and erased our history with false narratives. It’s also put gay and lesbian youth at great risk of being lured into horrific medicalized “gender affirming” conversion therapies. And nothing will change (except things getting worse) until gay men and lesbians realize what’s happened and work to recreate a movement focused on our rights and well-being.

Added: The appropriate response to rightwing attacks focused on TQ+ extremism (but also extending to undermine acceptance of gay people) should not be to circle the wagons and defend TQ+ extremism!

Worth repeating:

There’s clear evidence that pediatric gender identity services can amount to conversion therapy. LGB youth, particularly effeminate boys and masculine girls, are being pressured into falsely identifying as transgender, thereby “transing away the gay.”https://t.co/BQVy0KSIBz

Posted by Andrew Sullivan:

If we’re supposed to take trans adults at their word that they knew—not believed, but knew—they were trans when they were kids, why shouldn’t we take gay/lesbian and former tomboy adults at *their* word when they say they would have identified as trans and sought unnecessary…

Oh I would've been fast tracked. Tomboy. Trauma. BPD. Autistic. Bi. Yah, I'm so glad I'm old.
