Local media reported that the protesters stalled the parade for around ten minutes, and as they were carted off, one could be heard screaming that, "A man who says he’s a lesbian is a rapist" — an apparent reference to male-to-female transgender individuals.
Other activists from groups calling themselves Get The L Out, Object, Mayday 4 Women, Critical Sisters and Lesbian Rights Alliance, handed out pamphlets along the parade route, also claiming that the Pride event's expanding scope left lesbians marginalized and coerced into believing their sexual preferences were abhorrent. One flier read, "The trans movement is … coercing lesbians to have sex with men. We firmly condemn this vicious form of anti-lesbianism disguised as progress."
Another activist told reporters that, "Transgenderism is conversion therapy. Conversion therapy is wrong."
She continued, "Only women can be lesbians. A man who has surgery can never be a lesbian."
