The Latest In Crazy: Lesbians Being Told They're Bigots Because They Aren't Attracted To People With Penises

There's a piece by Amy Dyess at Medium on how lesbians are being told they're bigots under the guise of social justice:

TERF was initially used as an acronym that meant Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist, but the term has always been used to muzzle women from discussing our rights. For the past year and half, TERF has been widely used as homophobic hate speech aimed at all lesbians. That's right... ALL lesbians.

For the record, I am not a fan of the term "hate speech," but go with it here as part of the piece:

You don't have to be a radical feminist to be labeled a TERF. A lesbian can make it clear she believes trans people deserve human rights and respect, but she's still a "TERF" because her sexual orientation has an innate boundary. That boundary is same-sex attraction for other adult human females. Lesbians are the only sexual orientation that excludes penis... ...Let me be clear that trans people as a community aren't trying to make lesbians pansexual. Trans folks actually support and respect the same-sex boundary of homosexuality. It's the extremists who harm both homosexuals and trans people when they make unreasonable demands. That's fundamental to understand.

Here's a bit of the crazy:

Yes, sexual preference has become a form of bigotry in Social Justice Crazytown.
