The best example I can think of is the HRC and Barney Frank who were more than willing to exclude gender identity protections from the ENDA bill in an effort to get it passed. It wasn't that they were directly hostile towards us, but they were more than willing to throw us under a bus to pass the legislation they wanted.
At periods? Yes, actively working against us, and LGB groups existed historically long before T was even considered for tacking on... a process which again, was fought against.
And currently, it's generally the neglected minority child of the group.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
