... Well, I mean, taken at its most literal, _arguably_ the earth is flat. It's a bloody nonsense argument, but one might theoretically make it, and thus it is arguable. If you mean 'arguable' in its more conventional meaning, then, no it isn't arguable, don't be silly.

So... As an experienced homosexual, I have met exactly one gay person in real life who holds this position. But he also opposed gay marriage, and civil unions, so, ah, y'know, not the most rational actor. (Also, IIRC he didn't believe in bisexuals, so would presumably be looking to lose the 'B', as well...) In practice, pretty much anyone parroting "LGB, drop the T" thing is a straight transphobe, and likely also a homophobe.
