Not motivations[edit]

The second paragraph notes that it may be motivated by "religion, moral beliefs, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, animosity, political ideologies, or other reasons". But homophobia, transphobia and especially animosity aren't motivations for opposing it but rather ways said opposition may express itself in/contribute to. Someone doesn't oppose their rights because they're X-phobic, they oppose rights and they're X-phobic (because of another reason). Religion, moral beliefs, bigotry and political ideologies are all possible (as well as the "or other reasons"), but, while they are linked, the phobias and animosity aren't.

LGBT Doesn't only mean gay...[edit]

Hello. I was reading your article, and I just have to say that a majority of the "LGBT rights opposition" only includes countries' and groups views on homosexuality in general. That's great to talk about when it comes to the "G" in "LGBT", but I've yet to find much to talk about transgender rights opposition, or the entire group in general.

Synonyms[edit]

In the list of motivations for the movement we list both bigotry and religion. Aren't these two synonyms? Religions tend to teach their adherents to hate other people, and to discriminate in their behavior towards others. Dimadick (talk) 08:24, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
