All people ask for is to be treated equally to everyone else.
I’m sure you’re aware that this is not at all what I’m talking about. Equal treatment for all is a 100% fine demand and should be complied with immediately.
What have asexuals ever done to you?
It’s incorrect to assume that I have been affected by these people if I’m not happy about some aspects of what some activists are doing. But you are correct that I should’ve probably left A out of that jumble of letters, since they’re probably the least disruptive/demanding of all groups.
The things they (some of them/the activists) are demanding and which I feel are overcorrecting (i.e. go past just equal rights) include demands by legislation to force the pronoun issue; demands for overriding by default the will of parents when deciding healthcare (psychological and physical) of their children; demands of bathroom/dressing room usage and demands of being allowed to participate in sports in the series they identify as instead of in the series their body is. These are not black and white issues and I’m not claiming that they are.
Thing is, demanding merely equal rights for trans people is not quite enough, because some of the things they need/want are things that nobody else needs. So I think it’s not quite honest to say that they just want equal rights. In this way LGB rights are way simpler, because as far as I can tell they just wanted the exact same things as straight people already had.
But I want to reiterate that where trans people et al lack equal rights their fight is 100% legit, without any question.

I’m actually not aware what you were talking about, that’s why I asked. What do you mean by “overcorrecting”?
