Tolerance and membership are distinct. I can tolerate those who believe in god without believing in god myself. Acceptance of trans people, and subscription to their beliefs about sex/gender are distinct. There are lots of trans movements that operate on the assumption that they are not, hence refusal to believe in aspects of queer theory is the same as not tolerating trans people. I personally think that while there should be some restriction on behaviour, and on what can be said; there should be no restriction on belief, or mandating what must be said. The idea that the latter are a natural or normal part of tolerance I find chilling. As for your right wing straw man comment: I put it on you to prove those things are straw men, for there are certainly people who will call you a transphobe for disagreeing with any of them - those people are not right wing creations or fictions. |
