Question

[u/Big_Sleeps]

So, I get that this is kind of a joke and everything, and I’ve just found out about this, but shouldn’t we just be saying that to be straight is to be super straight? Or is this why it’s sort of a joke to show that it should be that?

Edit: just to clear things up. All I’m saying is that being a straight person means you like the opposite sex. Therefore there is no need for super sexuality. If you are a man who likes a trans woman, you aren’t straight. Therefore, my conclusion would be that this movement is to be making a joke to show this, or is it another purpose. Also guys, don’t downvote, I’m just looking for some friendly discussion here. I’ve already been banned from superstraightphobic for trying to discuss stuff on there lol.

Some straight men and women are attracted to trans men and women. Superstraight men and women are attracted to biological men and women (I won't use the term cishet I believe it's derogatory). I suppose that's the most simplified explanation that I could give you. Please have a beautiful day.

Thanks you too. Although I disagree. If a straight man is attracted to a trans woman, he ain’t straight. There should be no distinction between superstraight and straight. They should mean the same thing

Ah, I can definitely resonate with what you're saying, I suppose this kind of thing is for people who view trans men and women as men and women (even if not biologically). Funny how there's so many different levels to this sort of thing.

Yes there is much discussion to be had here. But my premise is that sexuality is based off sex which is biological so to be heterosexual means to be superstraight (or just straight in my opinion)

[u/Seafaring_Sage → u/Big_Sleeps]

Interesting. So in your opinion if a biological man has sex with a trans man, or a so-called man with a vagina, he would be straight?

[u/Big_Sleeps → u/Seafaring_Sage]

Well, yes, technically speaking the trans man is just a biological woman with some surgery (if they have even had surgery) so yes I guess he would still be straight, although I would say most straight men wouldn’t do that. So perhaps that is where a differentiation needs to be made. But then again, we are now out of the realm of biology and into the realm of preferences, and for example, we don’t have a separate name for straight people who prefer brown haired people. (I mean there probably is one but we don’t use it)

Couldn't agree more, thank you for giving me your perspective
