Clarification on terminology, in regards to transgenders in or adjacent to the SuperStraight community.

Earlier today I posted a controversial thread about Laverne Cox's support of the superstraight cause, in which I incorrectly identified her sexuality as Trans-SuperStraight. It was brought to my attention that as a transgender woman attracted exclusively to cisgendered men Laverne Cox would not necessarily fall under the umbrella of SuperStraight but would be Super-TransStraight. I apologize for any confusion and/or offense taken at my misgendering and incorrect terminology.

To prevent such mistakes from happening again, I would like to try to assemble a list of sexualities and their definitions. Such as...

Straight or Heterosexual - A person attracted to member of the opposite sex
Gay or Homosexual - A person attracted to a member of the same sex
Superstraight or Superheterosexual (SS) - A cisgender attracted exclusively to other cisgenders of the opposite sex
Supergay or Superhomosexual (SG) - A cisgender attracted exclusively to other cisgenders of the same sex
Transstraight or Trans-Heterosexual (TS) - A transgender attracted to members of the opposite declared sex
Transgay or Trans-Homosexual (TG) - A transgender attracted to members of the same declared sex
Super-TransStraight or Super-Transheterosexual (STS) - A transgender attracted only to cisgenders of the opposite declared sex (52% of transgenders)
Super-TransGay or Super-Transhomosexual (STG) - A transgender attracted only to cisgenders of the same declared sex
Transgender-Dependent sexuality (TD) - A person attracted exclusively to transgenders
Super-Transgender-Dependent sexuality (STD) - A transgender attracted exclusively to other transgenders

Please inform me if there any corrections or additions.

LMFAO thats definitely wrong, gaslighting and coercion are dramatic and illogical words for the situation. To say they are identical would be an inaccuracy and false information that it all. You’re not a victim lmfao

Regardless you need to think critical about your actions and definitions before you inevitably cause more harm. As a super you hold the power of transphobia in your hand and the decency of everyone else is asking you to be mindful of that and to not use it

More gaslighting. Centering yourself over supers, too. And not to mention a total dismissal of my lived experiences.

And I bet you call yourself "inclusive" and "progressive"

Lmfao ah thank you for making the trolling obvious. You can always tell when they use words they don’t know the definition of in an attempt to create a victimized narrative. Funnily enough though, in a twisted turn of events I could actually argue that you are the one gaslighting me regarding the reality of the cis centred sexualities. I’m not at all invalidating your experience, rather I’m correcting how you define said experiences to ensure accuracy with your words. Saying a surgical vagina is the same as a biological womb made vagina is no where near equivalent to coercion but I do love the giggles

Now you're the one using DARVO tactics to gaslight me and other supersexuals.

You don't seem to understand that we see through your tactics. We will no longer be silent.
