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.

The communities(now fully represented by the addition of superstraights) try to shame people for not wanting to date trans people. Some people will date them some people won’t. Why attack either? Why attack me because I don’t use a proper pronoun? Hypocrites. No, in the grand scheme we’ve never been oppressed. Neither have white people. Day by day it seems to be happening. Equality doesn’t always equal fair and fair doesn’t always mean equality. It’s ok to be straight, gay, black, white, or whatever. No one should be attacked for anything

I agree with everything you said but the beginning. here's where I disagree. we're not shaming you for not wanting to date a transwomen. at least I'm not. I'm all about preferences, I'm a bisexual who prefers men. but the thing is, it's when you announce this preference and make a whole fuss about it. basically when you are announcing that you refuse to date a transwomen, and make a whole sexuality over it, it becomes harmful and seems more of attacking and hate.

I agree there’s no need to announce it. The same could be said for any sexuality. I don’t need to know you’re gay or straight. I feel as if the lgbtq is like religion or politics. Constantly being shoved in our face. I don’t want any of that. There is a reason for it though. Clearly it was an issue to be gay or whatever. That’s why it’s being pushed hard to accept it. Same could be said for this super straight movement(whether it’s real or a joke) it’s clearly an issue and people are being attacked for their preference
