It's an ugly world

Unfortunately the trans issue is inextricably involved in the injustice and barbarism you allude to and that we seek to address here. We're undergoing profound shifts in what it means for the human to be a sexed being at all, to be human at all -- making it impossible to diagnose problems specific to men and boys without taking the trans phenomenon into account. Even if you don't agree that today's western "trans ideology" is our mortal enemy (which is undoubtedly is), there is no escape from its effects. The fact that it weasels its way so effortlessly into this forum is certainly a cause for concern -- but also of analysis.

The silver lining is that trans hysteria is waking people here up to the fact that boy love is simply not productively thought through in terms of minority sexual identity, or is at least only incompletely addressed in those terms. A critique of feminism wasn't enough, but trans pushes things over the top through the stunning audaciousness of its irrationality and its brutal assault on not just the aesthetics but the very integrity of the human body.

We need understandings of our plight that are of broader scope than the simple scapegoating of a sexual minority, even as that scapegoating is perfectly real, and still needs to be addressed. There are many dimensions to our dilemma; not everything needs to revolve around the big-picture issues. Certainly, if you want to ignore the trannie talk, by all means do so! Outright rejection of the terms of discourse often has much to offer. It's a part of what's driving a lot of return to traditional forms of religion, rejection of technology, and political "reaction" (both leftward and rightward), and is always an element of any thinking outside the box. I've long believed that the best thing that could happen for BL would be for everyone to stop talking about it. Everyone, that is.

Meanwhile, yes, there is only so much one can take. I don't know if and when I'm going to watch the video SB linked to.
