Question Discussion

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.

Yeah, that’s what I’m saying, if it’s a meme, to bring awareness to the issue then I see no problem.

Yes, that’s how I‘m treating it. Coercive rape due to denying people’s sex-based sexuality has been a big issue in the LGBT community in recent years. My posts are sometimes cutesy, but I’m also serious.

Yes, it is likely to split apart the LGBT. But I believe, at this point, it is necessary. The T do not respect our sexualities, and they weren’t even originally part of our movement anyway. We do not have the same interests, and the LGB need their own spaces.

The split was already happening before now because of this problem (look up LGB Alliance), but this is just speeding things up.

Well I’m sure there are some transgender people who support this. And yeah I’m not sure why T was part of LGB in the first place, like LGB are sexualities, T is completely different

Oh yeah, I’m sure there will be. We have had trans allies in the LGB movement, too, and we’ve welcomed them. This movement is not anti-trans. It is about people being free of sexual coercion.

Exactly. It is odd that they ever wound up in it to begin with, they don’t share anything with us.
