As for feminism and similar bullcrap, I hate it.
My definition is that feminists want equal rights for all genders. You don't sound like you're against that, so I'm guessing your definition is different; can you explain what you hate?
as for LGBT, do whatever you want, whenever you want, but privately
So does that mean a trans woman (a woman who was born with a penis) should hide their gender, and dress as a man, go to the men's toilet[1], etc? In other words should they hide their identity while they are in public? And what about trans men? Should they go to the women's toilet?
I guess you probably weren't talking about trans people, but only about LGB people (but I'm interested what you think about the above questions anyway!) For LGB people, I also wonder: what does "privately" mean? Can they walk hand in hand? Can they marry? Can they kiss in public?
And for all the above: why do you think that the rest of society is entitled to tell them if they can do those things?
[1] As far as toilets go, the constant battle against supposed rape by trans women causes a lot of anxiety for them (and I'm not aware of a single case of rape in a toilet by a trans woman). Here's a first hand account of what it's like for a trans woman to go to a public toilet: cartoon.
