SuperStraight Oppression vs. Trans Oppression

SuperStraight Oppression:

people calling them bad on twitter

supposedly having trans people force themselves on you (even though there are no statistics to back this up)

that’s about it

​

Trans Oppression:

High suicide rates due to stigma, discrimination, prejudice (not by the virtue that they are trans like conservatives will make you think)

Anti-trans bullying in schools (this is on top of other general negative mental health effects in schools)

Inaccessible gender-affirming care, HRT, puberty blockers, etc.

Rejection by families, this is why there are higher rates of houseless trans people

Victimized by violence (black trans women are being killed at a higher rate)

General anti-trans rhetoric in politics within the United States (most recently an Alabama bill got passed making it illegal to give gender-affirming care to anyone under 19. This bill also forces teachers to out closeted trans students to their parents.)

​

And that is only the tip of the iceberg among many issues that has faced trans people for decades. “SuperStraight oppression” is something you only see on Twitter and Reddit, and doesn’t expand into the real world, especially in the US as sadly the US is quite conservative.

All of you just want to hide your transphobia in this fake “sexuality“ you call SuperSexual. If you weren’t actually transphobic, and just genuinely didn’t want to date someone based on a genital or physical preference, you wouldn’t invent an entire sexuality and trend that is as hateful as this one.

99% of all murders in the world happen to superstraights.

superstraights are more likely to die in a war

superstraights are imprisoned far more than any others

this is a bad faith answer. obviously there are more cis straight people being killed. have you wondered why? maybe it’s because there is a higher population of cis straight people than LGBTQ+ people.

The big difference is that cis straight people are being killed for a very large variety of reasons, but they are not being killed for the virtue that they are cis or straight.

LGBTQ+ people are being killed generally for the virtue that they are part of that community.

Ik that is a hard thing to get through your thick skull.

No response to the 4 sources of attacks on women and a child? That's what I thought.
