Hmm... do I support gay rights or trans rights. Will I chose being evil because I reject the rights of gays to have a gay safe space or will I chose being evil for marginalizing transexuals. Choices, choices. I chose evil. It's the only morally right thing to do.
Ask yourself, does including -- and let's be realistic here -- between 0 and 2 people with masculine bodies and vaginas, make the space less "safe", considering that the men who have them are probably going to wear some.manner of undies over then even still?
What we are talking about catering to an uncommon need (to see exactly zero vaginas) which trans people are unlikely in the first place to violate(or even be in a position to do so) and are capable of avoiding the violation thereof, by banning trans people from the campgrounds.
Now, the reason for this moral divide is that they are making a campground to facilitate an orgy, or at least orgiastic behavior. "For a proper orgy, all participants must be cool with all other participants", similar to religious services in a way (for a successful service, all people involved with bringing that service likewise must at the very least not be belligerent to that religion). It is therefore one of the situations where you could actually satisfy both groups, especially seeing as you run a whole campground for an entire summer. You could have weekends or even just days where you call the campground out for niche groups. You could "second weekend of July is Swinging Richards weekend, a special weekend event for those of us who just need that dick! Cum on over for Size Queen Saturday, where we're encouraging everyone to roll out the big guns*!"
*Penises; weapons are not allowed or whatever. As this event is for encouraging and catering to sexual need, this event is offered exclusively to those with a penile genital fixation and so having a penis is required for this particular event.
If people are going to have clothes on then what does it matter for transexuals if they go to a gay camping or not? So that argument doesn't work, does it? I'm not saying it's a good argument. But that's the argument you used. See how silly it sounds?
Like, the thing that really gets me here is that the proprietor had so many ways of solving this that did not involve Trans Exclusion and went full exclusionary instead.
I think the proprietor was going out of his way to offend people. I think it smells of an attempt to get publicity.
Gay exclusion in these kinds of places is common. Whether it's age, hotness, muscle marys, chemsex, no chemsex, black people, Asians, hairy, not hairy, bears, no bears, dick size, etc etc. Excluding transexuals is just one more in the common long long list.
Yeah, it sucks that trans people aren't welcome there. They have my sympathies. But I'm actually cool with gays excluding people on whatever dimensions they wish. I've been to loads of these types of parties. I prefer it when the organizer is upfront with if I'm welcome or not. It always sucks to be somewhere I'm not welcome. The sooner I'm informed the better.
And it's not like there's a shortage of trans parties. I don't know the situation where you live. But all over Western and Northern Europe you don't need to make much of an effort to find a party where transexuals are more than welcome. Why not go to one of them?
