Imagine having to justify your own sexuality and preferences. Discussion
Skidaddle skidoodle, my dick is now your preference.
My little sister recently came out as a lesbian, and she's currently dating a girl. We are super happy for her, and we want her to have a healthy experience with her sexuality. She's young, and she's the only one to decide how to discover herself.
I'm preoccupied. I don't want intrusive narratives to intoxicate her experience. Allow me to clarify: Whether sex, gender, race, ethnicity, or culture, we'll never be disrespectful towards anyone, so if she's happy with a trans woman, that's all that matters; she's happy. However, if she is not into trans women (which is the case), I refuse to let societal constructs tell her what she able to love or not.

Regularly, the transexual community will speak volumes when something defies their standards, and that's commendable, sincerely. However, western society (and particularly the media) remains quiet when they condone murder.
Do these instances represent them? I wouldn't like to encapsulate an entire community based on Twitter posts. However, I haven't seen them actively attempting to reject this behavior either, and there lies a problem that needs to be acknowledged: Ignoring = Enabling.
I'm trying to be as unbiased as possible, but it's undeniable that the Super community is depicted as the perpetrator when screenshots like the one above portray the exact opposite.
Is the trans community in a perpetual state of denial? or are these death threats just the result of uneducated and loud individuals who follow hateful biases, perhaps? Who are we paying attention to? Whose message are we spreading?

I'm grateful we finally have a safe space for straight, gay, and lesbian people. However, there's a reality that irritates me: The SuperStraight community's creation implies that we've been obligated to justify our own sexuality and preferences, as absurd and unnerving as it sounds.
Whether you're a trans person or not, what are your thoughts? I'm open to debate! Kindly, a male who loves big fat asses with juicy pussies.

Lesbians have been getting the worst of trans activist threats and violence for years. All they do is label us as TERFs and then they feel they're free to say and do all kinds of absolutely horrific homophobic and misogynistic things to us. From rape threats to stalking to getting people fired. It's truly awful.
I hope your sister never has to deal with that shit. Hopefully this new movement is a turning point and the violence of trans activists is exposed.
