What they hate is that they have to see us, or hear us, encounter us, or be aware of their existence in any way.
There's no stopping point for this hatred, there's no public facing job they consider acceptable for a trans person to hold.
What they are demanding is our complete exclusion.

The employee asked the girl and her mother if they needed help shopping. That’s it. That’s all. The misinformation, the insinuations (because the facts are inconveniently benign) are EXACTLY what was done to lesbians in the 80s. This is the product of hate and fear, not reality.

This is no accident. The groups behind age-verification laws have been explicit that they regard "gender ideology" and nearly any representation of LGBTQ+ existence as pornography
AV is government censorship. Platforms are either designating LGBTQ+ content NSFW or removing it all together.
