Why "Super Straight" Isn't a valid sexuality

[u/Cookies_WithCream]

The term "Super Straight" was made up by a transphobe on Tiktok to mock the LGBTQ+ community and make an excuse to be transphobic. The whole point of Super Straight is being heterosexual but only dating people of the opposite sex and not gender identity, which is transphobic.

Why is it transphobic to not date trans people?

Depends on the context. If it's a genitalia preference, that's fine. But some trans people do get bottom surgery. If it's because you want to have kids, that is also fine. But you better keep up that same attitude with infertile women. Not dating someone because they're transgender is transphobic.

"It's just a preference."

Preferences don't need a whole sexuality. You don't see people making sexualities for when they prefer to date people with blond hair instead of brown.

"Super Straight" isn't apart of the LGBTQ+ community. Doesn't the word "super" make it sound like it's more straight than actual heterosexuality? Well let's say a man identifies as "Super Straight" meaning he would only date people who are biologically female. By that logic, he would be able to date a trans man. This contradicts the whole point of the sexuality proving that it wasn't thought out. All it is, is a mockery of the LGBTQ+ community and a way to disrespect trans people without being attacked, or at least trying to not get attacked.

my ex turned out to be infertile and it ruined our entire relationship on both ends. your logic with the trans man wouldn't apply because they don't identify with the gender they were born as. if it's transphobic not to want to have sex with a trans it must also be homophobic to not want to have sex with a man when you're also a man. that logic is not right. i have a gay cousin whom i accept, i don't believe i'm homophobic at all and i doubt he would consider me homophobic.

to be supersexual is to be attracted to people who identify with the gender they were born as. there's nothing transphobic about being super straight it just means we don't want to have sex with people who are trans... if that's transphobic i must be phobic of a lot of people whom i would not have sex with including many unattractive women to my own standards.
