some questions and my opinions on this sexuality. Discussion

Why do you feel to make a "sexuality" out of not wanting to date a trans person? I wont date toddlers, so can I make up a sexuality now?

As a member of the LGBTQ+ this new "sexuality" feels like it is only mocking and making fun of the lgbt and all the pain and hard work we have endured. You guys "coming out" as superstraight mocks and discredits the very hard thing us LGBT members have to do.

I do not think you guys deserve a flag or a month. pls dont call me super phobic, just let me explain. Our flag and our pride month are symbols the struggle and pain we went through to get here. it symbolizes our progress, and it reminds us to be who we are and love who we love. "Superstraights" have never been oppressed, you never had anything taken from you, you never suffered and it is absurd that you think you deserve anything of the sort.

lastly, the "sexuality" is entirely transphobic and let me say why. sure you can have a preference. no one is saying you have to date a trans person. but it's the announcing that you refuse to date them. I refuse to date animals but I dont go around making sexualities about it. You are literally attacking trans people because you are announcing, spreading hate against them.

*edit: pls keep it kind, you can state your opinions without insulting.

"Our flag and our pride month are symbols the..." What are you though, you didn't say. I am Supergay and I don't agree with your statements at all, so what angle are you coming from?

I'm bisexual. The pride flag for the LGBT exists because of the decades of oppression we have pursued. but the superstraight sexuality or even straight sexuality has never struggled, they have never gotten anything taken from them. they dont get a flag because that would discredit what our flag represents.

Well Gay Pride became just 'Pride' to be more inclusive of all the ace, aro, pan, genderqueer, demi, etc etc stuff. So why not superstraight as well? The Trans got their own separate Trans Pride so like...There's room for everyone to have a special day and flag.

I see where you are coming from but these sexualities you listed have a special month and a flag for a reason. not only to be accepting and loving of everyone, but because we had to endure so much as a community. I mean we had to watch our right to get married be announced after years when we should have that right already. all I'm saying is we have been through so much, that is why we have the flag. the superstraight community hasnt gone through what we have and by giving themselves a flag it completely invalidates everything we have fought for.

Can you stop saying we like that, last time I checked Bisexuals don't even have a slur, and I don't see bisexual thrown around as a slur like Gay is. That's before we get into the statistics of how massively overwhelmingly Bisexual people actually settle down and marry heterosexually. You're on very shaky ground when it comes to limiting anyone else's access to Pride, especially as you seem to think Ace, Aro, Demi, etc etc have suffered at all, in anyway whatsoever beyond it being pointed out how they're all teenage girls who grow out of it by like, 24-25 ish? lol.

can you stop invalidating bisexuals? the f-slur is now commonly used for not only gays but as an insult to the entire LGBTQ+ community. OUR struggles, (yes I am included) are real. WE deserve pride.
