Women and LGBTQ+ people take up guns after Trump’s win: ‘We need to protect ourselves’

Your posts. I'm not a mind reader so I read posts and, if I have questions, I ask them. If the person runs from the question, then that's an answer all by itself.

What are my stereotypes, Mug? Or are you going to run from this quesiton too?

Ignoring your idiot trolls isn't 'running' from anything, it's just natural to ignore morons unless there is nothing else to do.
 

The misogyny and anti-trans rhetoric that were hallmarks of the 2024 election campaign have seemingly ramped up since Donald Trump’s win, prompting some women, queer and trans people to respond by buying guns – and learning how to defend themselves from potential attackers.

The Guardian spoke to various Americans from marginalized groups taking firearms classes, arming themselves with stun guns and pepper spray and taking their friends shooting in an effort to protect themselves from bigots they fear will be emboldened by the president-elect’s return to power. A few left-leaning gun clubs say their numbers are increasing dramatically.


“I am thinking about carrying every day,” said Ashley Parten, 38, a Douglasville, Georgia, resident who purchased stun guns for herself, her daughter and three nieces after the election. Parten, who is Black and bisexual, is also eyeing a maroon handgun that she plans on buying after taking a firearms class.

“We all feel the need to make sure that we’re aware of our surroundings and protect ourselves in general, but even more so now,” she said.

Earlier this week, the Republican House speaker, Mike Johnson, in effect targeted Sarah McBride, the first openly trasperson elected to Congress, by stating single-sex bathrooms in the Capitol “are reserved for individuals of that biological sex”. Trump, whose campaign released a firehose of anti-trans attack ads, has promised to ban gender-affirming care for minors and “keep men out of women’s sports”.

The president-elect and several of his cabinet picks are also facing sexual misconduct allegations; he and his allies have bragged about the overturning of Roe v Wade and denigrated childfree women.

“Our identities are politicized every single day,” said Parten.
anti trans rhetoric?

you mean science, biology and genetics?

The only misogyny and anti-trans "rhetoric" comes from leftists. They're the ones who absolutely HATE all those they consider to be sexual FREAKS and thus lump them all together under the intended slur "LGBTQIAMSPPIPTUMLV+" ... which was cruelly crafted on the left. Conservatives had nothing to do with it.

prompting some women, queer and trans people to respond by buying guns
Nope.

– and learning how to defend themselves from potential attackers.
Nope. All leftist hoplophobes and gun-craven anti-2nd-Amendment nutcases who insisted that all law-abiding citizens remain defenseless before violent crime weren't going to suddenly become conservatives in their ideology and insist on their 2nd Amendment right to bear arms.

The Guardian spoke to various Americans
They spoke to no one. Fake news.
 
Because some heterosexual couples cant have kids due to medical reasons


Why cant two gay men have kids?
Why does it matter? My husband and I can't have kids together either, as we're too old. Well, I suppose technically HE could father a child, with someone else, if he wanted to risk my wrath. lol

Gay men sometimes use a surrogate mom in order to have a child. Gay women sometimes use a sperm donor to have a child. It's none of my business, and none of yours either.

Two gay men can make a deal with two lesbians for sperm donor and surrogate moms. :thup:
 
Indeed. And equating homosexuality with pedophilia is the mark of a closed, nailed shut, and low IQ mind.
Only the willfully ignorant bigots cannot accept that the vast majority of child molesters are hetero males.
...or "in the closet" heterosexual males. Notice how many MAGAts display homosexual, pedophile or hebophiles/ephebophiles tendencies yet claim to be heterosexuals. Worse, look at how many MAGAts give them a pass simply because they are MAGAts or Trump himself.


The course of pedophilia is usually long term (3, 5, 9, 14, 15). In a study that examined the relationship between age and types of sexual crimes, Dickey et al. (14) found that up to 44% of pedophiles in their sample of 168 sex offenders were in the older adult age range (age, 40–70 years). When compared with rapists and sexual sadists, pedophiles comprise 60% of all older offenders, indicating that pedophiles offend in their later years at a greater rate than other sexual offenders (14)....

...Pedophiles may engage in a wide range of sexual acts with children. These activities range from exposing themselves to children (exhibitionism), undressing a child, looking at naked children (voyeurism), or masturbating in the presence of children to more intrusive physical contact, such as rubbing their genitalia against a child (frotteurism), fondling a child, engaging in oral sex, or penetration of the mouth, anus, and/or vagina (3, 5, 7, 9). Generally, pedophiles do not use force to have children engage in these activities but instead rely on various forms of psychic manipulation and desensitization (eg, progression from innocuous touching to inappropriate touching, showing pornography to children) (1, 5, 17, 21). When confronted about engaging in such activities, pedophiles commonly justify and minimize their actions by stating that the acts “had educational value,” that the child derived pleasure from the acts or attention, or that the child was provocative and encouraged the acts in some way (1, 3, 9, 2224). A US Department of Justice manual for law enforcement officers identifies 5 common psychological defense patterns in pedophiles: (1) denial (eg, “Is it wrong to give a child a hug?”), (2) minimization (“It only happened once”), (3) justification (eg, “I am a boy lover, not a child molester”), (4) fabrication (activities were research for a scholarly project), and (5) attack (character attacks on child, prosecutors, or police, as well as potential for physical violence) (1).

Some are just like some MAGAts are anti-immigrant until they see what it costs them. :rofl2: :ROFLMAO: :rofl2:

Now run like a bunny, ExLax, as you always do.

BTW, if your melon business drops due to a lack of workers, will you be upscaling your meth lab business?

1 in 20 boys is a victim of child sexual abuse more than not the abuser is a male.

Amen
 
You are a truly vile and disgusting person. The hypocrisy you show attacking gays as "deviant" ppl is astounding.

Yes, you and your leg humper Douche keep repeating your BS over and over again, demonstrating you're just fashion victims and hoping you impress others with your 'Wokeness'. You don't.

Deviants is what they are, it's not an 'attack', that's just you hyperventilating. You can't even call them what they are, you need to use euphemisms. lol
