Lesbian activists block Pride in London march to protest against trans women

[Behind the Aegis]

A group of lesbian activists blocked the start of the Pride in London march today (7 July) in protest against transgender women.

A group of eight women stormed the parade route without accreditation. Then five of them laid down on the road in front of the parade and draped a banner over them.

The banner read: ‘Transactivism erases lesbians’.

They then blocked the parade route for about 10 minutes. One of the activists shouted out: ‘A man who says he’s a lesbian is a rapist’

3. WTF?

I'm old, someone needs to explain this to me because I don't understand what lesbians have to do with trans women or vice versa.

5. So now Putin's troll army is trying to divide the LGBT community too? Great!

6. Those are lesbians I do not care to know.

I have no use for TERFs. Transpeople are part of my LGBTQ family. I cut off anyone who causes division within my family -- even family.

And this would be laughable, were they not dead serious:

"The flyer states: ‘The trans movement is… coercing lesbians to have sex with men.'"

SMDH

7. I think this is the second or third time TERF lesbians have done this

I think this is a diliberate and coordinated attack against trans lesbians and future marches need to be prepared for this in the future.
