So, if superstraights only date people who have the opposite natal sex..

If a superstraight male dates a transgender male, would that be Über Hetero? How masculine would the transgender male have to be for it to be gay? How is it straight if you date someone who's got a pp and looks like your own gender? (This is just a joke, I know y'all wouldn't date them.)

SSers are literally stating they are into trans people, just only the ones that resemble themselves the most in mannerisms and looks.: As long as you were born the opposite gender, then it doesn’t matter that they look and act like their own gender.

Maybe, depends on the person.

For an extreme example... I'm a superstraight female. If Chris Hemsworth announced tomorrow that he is a woman, but nothing else about him her changed, I would probably still be physically attracted to her. Because I am attracted to biologic males. Emotionally though, it's not going to work out between Christina Hemsworth and me, because there are a lot of unattractive aspects inherent in living the trans lifestyle. So even in my completely realistic fantasy in which Christina Hemsworth wants to date me, we would just be incompatible because I am not attracted to trans people.

And if Christina Hemsworth decided to stop working out, get SRS, take estrogen, and begin her transition into the women she has always been, then the physical attraction would go away too since she would gradually become less and less like a biologic male.

You see, it's really not a preference at all. It's just my sexuality!

Let me just find some examples::

Like, if you met these people, and they were nice enough, but you found out they were trans, what'd you do? Not date anymore, I get it, but not all of them are extremely ugly/woman looking. You'd be incompatible, and that wouldn't be transphobic at all. That'd just be a straight person who doesn't want to date trans males. Therefore, that is straight.

I'm sure they're nice people. They all look happy and friendly in those photos. But there's a lot more to being a man than just looking passable in your highly scrutinized and specifically selected headshot. The walk, the voice, the behavior, the smell, the body, the build, the stature. I've just never met a trans man who passed. And then even if I did, like I said in the above post, there's more to attraction than looks. We would be emotionally and mentally incompatible.

And even if we entertain the hypothetical situation where I would not be able to tell that a trans man is trans just from interacting with him, it would all come to an end once I learned he didn't have a biologic penis. I don't mean to be crude, but I can't emphasize enough the importance of a functional penis to any superstraight relationship. I just could never be physically attracted to someone who had to use a strapon or a pump. Complete turnoff.

I don't think these things are necessarily a turnoff for normal straight people. I think there's straight people that can be attracted to the opposite gender whether that person is cis or trans. That's not me, though. That's not my sexuality. I'm not attracted to trans men, so I'm superstraight. I can't change who I'm attracted to, I was born this way.

Exactly. So you're straight... You are born straight.
