I think the meme is more focused on people who don't fit into the binary definitions of gender so neatly, which a lot of trans people don't, but the perception is that they're probably trying to to some degree: It's probably more referring to those who might identify as bigender or agender and the like.

Outside of my beliefs in Christianity, I strongly dislike LGBTs because I just can't wrap my mind around how you can be attracted to the same freaking sex/gender as you! I also find it very disgusting. This whole LGBT gender and pronouns thing is getting out of hand.

Absolutely not. Transgendered people aren't what's at issue here. What's at issue are people coattailing on the strides we've made in acknowledging transgender acceptance to put the focus on themselves. If you see the word 'demi-' or 'pan-' before a gender or noun that has nothing to do with a gender being used in its stead, then you know what I'm talking about.

With that said, even non-binary and fluid experiences of gender identity are equally seen as valid within the medical and scientific literature, and included in the definitions and understandings of gender identity. I mean I can understand that those aspects are probably more difficult and foreign to wrap our heads around, but there are not illegitimate by that difficulty others may have with it.

Personally, I think a healthy balance needs to be reached. The state of being transgender and wishing to change gender and/or sex is one thing, many studies have proven it to be legitimate. Androgeny is a bit more gray area. It's arguably the most indesputably benign to all sides of the argument, so science or no science, it's easier to just let them live in such a state than bothering to open any cans of worms on the subject. Gender fluidity and such things seem less logical to an outside observer, so logic would dictate that it ought to be considered less legitimate than the former two mentioned. Honestly, though, I think the whole debate is a bit overdone. It'd be much easier if we had one catch-all pronoun like hän. Then, we'd have the pronoun issue out of the way. Then, to tackle the bathroom topic that seems to be raising hell across the board for different reasons, we could just make the stalls go from the floor to the ceiling and have one unisex bathroom, sans urinals. And there you have it folks, now only the moral conservatives are upset. Alternatively, we could dust off the old law books and see what they did in the olden days. Then we'd have the opposite problem. This is why we can't have nice things folks, this is why.
