      Can you imagine a group of 35 hyped up young people -- shouting, chanting and swearing -- surrounding and shouting down a small group of lesbians at a public event telling them to "Fuck Off" and "You are not welcome here". This is the video I am watching from #LancasterPride

      Can you imagine a crowd of adults across the road - some looking uncomfortable, some cheering them on, as they surround the 6 lesbians shouting "We are proud! We are here!" and holding up flags to try to obscure the banners which proclaim that lesbians are female homosexuals.

      Can you imagine a few charismatic adult males walking into the crowd of young people leading a chant, being cheered and walking off to adulation. Can you imagine one of the official pride stewards smiling and holding up the flag of the group that is shouting down the lesbians?

      Can you imagine the young people felt scared by the women who they had been told were evil, but emboldened by moral certainty? Can you imagine they felt a sense of belonging from their matching coloured clothing, the flags they carried, the chants and slogans they repeated?

      Can you imagine that the young people went home feeling believing that they had done a good thing to protect their community against a corrupt and despicable group? Telling their parents, their school friends, their teachers that they had stood up against this contamination?

      Can you imagine that rather than be concerned the leader of the organisation that is supposed to represent & support lesbians tweeted that these young people "had the right instinct"? That trade unions praised them? Event officials called them"heroes"?pic.twitter.com/cisRJJQf16

          We lesbians don't have to imagine, do we? The misogyny & lesbophobia of LGBTQ Inc. is something we encounter on a daily basis.

          Those people were holding up banners with transphobic slogans. Transphobia is not welcome at pride. It's as simple as that.
