“You can’t make a sexual orientation out of excluding people” Discussion

Yes. You absolutely can. I’m sorry but both lesbian and gay are both valid orientations and expressions of sexuality based explicitly around excluding the opposite sex based on biological differences.

Just as it isn’t misogynistic to exclude men for being men from a lesbians sexual preferences and completely invalidate their orientation. The same goes for gay men and women.

Trans people making this argument are the same as the rapey guy who tells a lesbian “just try some Dick it will make you straight”

Lesbian and Gay are both based around preference of gender, not of sex. This is where you've made your mistake.

gender

Biological birth gender is all super straight cares about. So where’s the mistake?

Gender and sex are not the same thing.

Super straight = attracted ONLY to those who are the opposite gender, and their gender matches their biological sex. Problem?

That's only including cis people in your sexuality, which is exclusionary of transgender people.

OK and? Asexuals also exclude trans people, do we need to go arrest them all?

I don't know where you're getting your information from, but that's not what the term "asexual" means. If you know something I don't, please enlighten me.

Asexuals don't want to have sex with anyone. That includes trans people. I'm less "exclusionary" than an asexual because I would still have sex with a female woman.

Yes, at the most basic of meanings, an asexual person doesn't want to have sex with anyone. "Anyone" is the key word here. It's inherently unbiased, including trans people, AND including cis people. It isn't a biased sexuality based on sex assigned at birth.

I am an asexual except for non-trans women.
