'We're being pressured into sex by some trans women'​

"There's a common argument that they try and use that goes 'What if you met a woman in a bar and she's really beautiful and you got on really well and you went home and you discovered that she has a penis? Would you just not be interested?'" says Jennie, who lives in London and works in fashion.

"Yes, because even if someone seems attractive at first you can go off them. I just don't possess the capacity to be sexually attracted to people who are biologically male, regardless of how they identify."

Several people got in touch with me to say there was a "huge problem" for lesbians, who were being pressured to "accept the idea that a penis can be a female sex organ".

You cannot make this up if you wanted to. How long are we going to keep placating this nonsense?

They described being harassed and silenced if they tried to discuss the issue openly. I received online abuse myself when I tried to find interviewees using social media.

One of the lesbian women I spoke to, 24-year-old Amy*, told me she experienced verbal abuse from her own girlfriend, a bisexual woman who wanted them to have a threesome with a trans woman.

When Amy explained her reasons for not wanting to, her girlfriend became angry.

"The first thing she called me was transphobic," Amy said. "She immediately jumped to make me feel guilty about not wanting to sleep with someone."

She said the trans woman in question had not undergone genital surgery, so still had a penis.

"I know there is zero possibility for me to be attracted to this person," said Amy, who lives in the south west of England and works in a small print and design studio.

So to rephrase, one of the partners in a lesbian relationship wanted to partake in penile stimulation and thus trojan horsed the concept by inviting a Trans Woman. When her girlfriend rebuked the idea, she bullied her and called her transphobic.

Another lesbian woman, 26-year-old Chloe*, said she felt so pressured she ended up having penetrative sex with a trans woman at university after repeatedly explaining she was not interested.

"I felt very bad for hating every moment, because the idea is we are attracted to gender rather than sex, and I did not feel that, and I felt bad for feeling like that," she said.

So she willfully accepted a piping because she felt it was a woman with a penis and was disappointed that she didn't like it because the penis broke the illusion that she was with a woman.

The lesbians who feel pressured to have sex and relationships with trans women

Some lesbians say they have been called transphobic for not wanting sex and relationships with trans women.

If sexuality was a Christopher Nolan movie then this is Inception and we're now in Limbo.

This got quotables for days but people kept telling women to not get behind this. Not only are men coming for your sports, scholarships, your safe spaces, now they trying to date you even when you don't like men.

I had to post this on twitter. It's what happens when you allow words to mean anything to anyone.
