1. Nobody is saying Transgender is a sexuality.
2. Nobody is saying trans is a "type of gay"
3. Nobody is saying a child is born in the wrong body.
4. You need to observe in order to assign sex. Meaning you gotta see a penis to assign "male" to the baby.
5. Regarding gay men and lesbians in the meme above - what about post-op trans people?

Gender identity on the other hand is not scientific but personal. So those people can consider themselves whatever gender, and define themselves as lesbian or gay. They may or may not have the organs they were born with.

“There are some ideas so absurd that only an intellectual could believe them.” Orwell said that. Long before the better educated started believing that man can became pregnant or that gender is a choice.
Only Orwell didn't say that.

Just like Voltaire didn't say his famous quote, of course Orwell's original is close enough: One has to belong to the intelligentsia to believe things like that: no ordinary man could be such a fool…

Then quote the proper thing, or say you are doing a paraphrase and deliberately lifting Orwell out of context.

Hence, I brought up Voltaire. I really hate talking to slow people.

Only the Voltaire gloss accurately sums up a general principle of his, and your gloss on Orwell does not.

Here.
I got you the essay.
You should read it.

Orwell is an interesting writer.

But it has to include a sense of what is right and wrong. It has to include morality and social justice.

Right wing fascists are not in the majority but supporting them would not be woke.
But right and wrong mean different things to different people like in the aspect of abortion or people who are religious and believe gay sex is a sin. That's their morality. Who are we as a society to tell them what to believe and accept. I'm pro choice and don't care who anyone fucks but I would not push my morals onto someone else

You are simply seeking to impose your construct of gender and sexuality ut others need not accept that construct.

I am not. I am refuting the meme that was posted that seemed to misrepresent the gender identity/trans conversation.

I remember when the ribbons first started and how upset my school housemates were when I refused to wear the AIDS ribbon. I said: I'm not gonna wear one, but I will do my duty to stop the spread of AIDS by always making sure to have the condom handy.

Proof once again that no matter what you do or say or don't do or say, somebody somewhere will be offended/insulted.
