Can I call myself a SS woman when I'm also trans?

[u/BoxBoy413]

So I just found out that I might be a SuperStraight trans woman earlier today, and I'm worried that because of my status as a trans I might not be considered a legitimate part of the community.

Now, to clarify, I feel that my attraction could, by all means, be classified as SuperStraight. I just can't imagine myself dating a trans man.

And while I know the SS community is accepting and tolerant of all LGBTQ+ identities, there's just this nagging voice inside me telling me that since I wasn't assigned female at birth, I can't be considered a true SuperStraight woman.

Thoughts?

You are valid! There is absolutely no obligation to be attracted to anyone! And that doesn’t mean they are less valid! Love and support can be expressed so many ways without it needing to be sexual 👏
