Get the L Out

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


"Get the L Out" is an informal activist group that seeks to separate lesbians from the LGBT community. Supporters protest against the human rights for transgender people, and a perceived "lesbian erasure" and "influence of gender identity politics", with a focus against trans women.

History[edit]

In 2018, demonstrators called attention to the movement by interrupting the Pride Parade in London; carrying banners that read "Lesbian Not Queer", "Lesbian=Female Homosexual", and "Transactivism Erases Lesbians".[1][2][3] Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London, denounced the protest as being transphobic.

The London protest was condemned by Stonewall,[4][5] the largest LGBT lobby group in the UK, which led to it being accused of giving preference to transgender causes.[6][7]
