    "The lesbian community" to this shitter consists of gold stars only, everyone else is not a real lesbian.

    What they are actually concerned about is that lesbians are increasingly embracing trans women, that the gold stars are a dying breed.

      It's a bit ironic though because this person probably isn't a gold star lesbian herself if she came out at 40.

        Ah true. But even if she's not you know what I mean, she's in the "real lesbians aren't attracted to trans women". The actual concern this woman has is that lesbians within the lgbt community are embracing transwomen and when they do that, they stop being lesbians in this person's eyes. Thus lesbians disappearing is what they think is occurring.

        She probably gets icky feelings if another woman she wants to date has ever been with a trans woman. Like they're impure or something. Have seen similar behaviour from racists. It's also like "virginity" in a way.

        A woman who has never been with a man that only likes women. Typically someone who goes to the trouble of identifying as a gold star excludes trans women from the liking women bit.

        A special kind of pure lesbian because they've never been with a man ever. Emphasis on the "pure".
