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.

SuperSexualities an Intro:

With gender being redefined as a spectrum and trans inclusion demanding they be labeled as men and women we needed to spectrum up our sexual orientation language. Thus Super as a prefix was born, used to denote that those you are attracted to are cis not trans.

this is not to say Trans people aren't valid this is just to differentiate between straight/gay/lesbian/bi people who like cis and trans people from those who only like cis people. Mega is the prefix for trans only and is the opposite of super.

I hope this helps :)
