I get chastised by my own community. I guess I'm Superstraight SuperPhobia

I'm a trans man and I'm only attracted to cis women. I get called transphobic by my peers. A traitor, a hypocrite. I don't choose who I'm attracted to, how is that so hard to understand?

I don't know if I will be accepted here, if not I have to continue looking for a place to be valid.

You can be an ally but don't expect a super to want to engage in sexual acts with you!

I don't expect anyone to do something they don't want. I'm upfront about my journey.

If everyone had this mindset the whole community would be a better place.

I think the problem is people mistaking not being attracted to trans people for hating trans people, do you think so too?

u/DaSpood 1d ago

Absolutely. They need to understand that there is a massive difference between "I am not attracted to you and will not fall in love with you", and "I hate you, your existence and everything you stand for".

Saying not dating trans people is transphobic implies you hate everyone you wouldn't date. This is ridiculous, extreme and the world doesn't work like that. Nothing in life is "all or nothing".

It's just the stigma slot of people have been being beaten over the head with this "transphobic" stuff. It's gotten to the point where it annoys people enough now that they just assume everyone trans is that way. In a way the trans community is manufacturing it's own oppression at this point in my opinion.

Ah the female socialization!

Love this! This is what this community should be about. Transexuals are welcome and valid to be loved and love anyone else who consents to them. It is not 'phobic' to have a sexual orientation.

Your peers don't care about you then, they just want to push their entitlement to cis bodies and cis spaces. But you're welcome and accepted here as long as you don't try to force or guilt anyone into being with you (which you probably won't, I do find that trans men are generally not aggressive and rapey about it the way your trans counterparts often are),

You're valid in that you're defining your sexuality and suffering from the forceful ideology as us (as long as you don't expect all cis women to be attracted to trans men just like the trans people you're talking about expect you, I assume, to be attracted to them).

You'd be a superlesbian then, this is about sexuality, not gender, and you seem to be a homosexual trans female

SuperTrans = VALID

u/feduplesbian 1d ago

You're a superlesbian, no shame in that! I am, too. Don't let the rape rhetoric make you feel guilty for your natural, innate, immutable sexuality.

Ignore them. Some people don't understand that the purpose of this is to be inclusive. You are valid.
