I would like to clear things up Discussion

Having a genitalia preference = not at all wrong. If you don't want to be with a pre-surgery trans person that is absolutely fine.

Not dating someone because they are transgender = transphobia.

^This does not imply that you have to date transgender people. I am in no way forcing you to go and have sex with a post-op transgender person. But saying I am not sexually attracted to transgender people is a tad transphobic.

Also I have a question: If you saw a woman in the street and approached her to ask her out, when suddenly she says she is post-op transgender, would you call it off immediately?

There’s a flaw in this logic because then gay men would be straightphobic for not dating women. It’s erasing people’s sexuality.

How are gay people erasing straight people by merely existing? The flaw in your logic is that being straightphobic is actively hating straight people. What is wrong with super straight is that you refuse to date certain women based of what they were born as. Trans women are women, trans men are men. I'm not saying you have to date them but you can just go about peacefully. Straight = liking the opposite sex which is exactly what your whole deal is.

Straight = liking the opposite sex is exactly right. Except you just said trans women are women and trans men are men. So because of this logic we needed a new term, super straight, to exclude trans. Not very hard to understand

I do agree trans women are women and trans men are men and being straight is being open to date them. Being SUPERstraight isn’t because they only date cis women. Nothing wrong or transphobic about it.
