MM's support for an attempt within the British Labour Party to prevent gay and bisexual women and men is risible to the point of being downright anti-gay. There have been a series of violent threats against people organising the new Lesbian Gay Bisexual Alliance and attempts to threaten the employment of a leading member, a black lesbian lawyer. These attacks come overwhelmingly from white heterosexual males. As John Edmundson noted, the claims of 'transphobia' are used in the same way claims of 'anti-semitism' are used by zionists to stop critical thinking about Israel. Homosexual and bisexual women and men have every right to organise and also to have same-sex involvements. Lesbians have every right to say 'No' to penis and the attitudes of straight males demanding entry to lesbian spaces and to break the 'cotton ceiling' are downright rapey. We've already seen this at work in the Yaniv case in Canada. Happily there is now starting to be serious pushback against the New Misogyny and the New Homophobia, complete with all its threats of rape, murder, lynching, plus its super-active and super-asggressive no-platforming of people ranging from Germaine Greer to Cindy Sheehan to Helen Steel. _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: https://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
