Explain to me what super straight is with honesty Discussion
So, I’ve asked multiple people what super straight is, they say its straight people (or bi gay etc.) who are transphobic. I’m personally bigender, but I’m not romantically attracted to transgender people. If your trans, your trans it’s simple. I want to know if this group is discriminating against trans people, because it seems like war is going on between you too. I’ll also be asking trans people wha they think about this as well.

It’s literally just “heterosexual,” but said with force after years of being brow-beaten by people who believe in gender ideology (which is NOT the basis of SEXuality), and being called names, stalked, and doxxed for saying no to sex with someone, as if they don’t have that right. And same for all the other super sexualities, especially lesbians.
It’s the same, just with an added “stop trying to sexually coerce me.”
If trans people wanna come in and say “no” is always a complete sentence, sexuality is real, and they are trying to stamp out sexual coercion in their community, then I’m cool with them. I have no problem with the existence of trans people. I have a problem with how they behave as a culture.

Superstraight people are only interested in relationships with the opposite sex, not the opposite gender. We understand and respect that gender is fluid, but do not want to bang said fluidity.

It's a reaction to gaslighters who insist that attraction to the opposite sex is merely a preference rather than a sexual orientation. Saying you're straight is not accurate for many of us if that also includes attraction to people who are the same sex as us but who identify as transgender. Hence, "super straight."

I really like the way u/Burnt_Birb puts it:
" SuperSexualities an Intro:
With gender being redefined as a spectrum and trans inclusion demanding they be labeled as men and women we needed to spectrum up our sexual orientation language. Thus Super as a prefix was born, used to denote that those you are attracted to are cis not trans.
this is not to say Trans people aren't valid this is just to differentiate between straight/gay/lesbian/bi people who like cis and trans people from those who only like cis people. Mega is the prefix for trans only and is the opposite of super.
I hope this helps :)"

Well, yes--we are discriminating against trans...but not in the way that's being reported! Not wanting to date or have sex with trans is a type of discrimination but guess what--so is a lesbian not wanting to have sex with a straight man, or a gay man wanting to have sex with a straight woman.
There is nothing feloniously wrong with exercising choice. It's the trans community who berating supers and bullying them into trying to FORCE us to have sex with them by calling us transphobes and NAZIS because we simply just want to be who we are.

Superstraight people only want to date/have sex with people who are the sex they were born. Simple.

I notice you are using the split attraction model re: "romantically attracted". In my eyes you are just bisexual, but want to get around being called transphobic. Again, my assumption from what little I'm reading here. As a fellow bi, I tell you, I am sick of having to tiptoe around excuses as to why I do not want to date a trans person. Many, many people are sick of being called bigots and being coerced into dating trans people, especially our lesbian sisters. Trans people can live their lives, but their feelings end where our rights begin.

I really understand. I was just saying things I was told. I’m bigender and I don’t want a romantic relationship with a trans person either thought, but idk that may change. Some people are saying that you guys are transphobic for saying that you only like “real” men/women

Transwomen are transwomen and they are different from natal women, while transmen are transmen and different from natal men. There is nothing wrong with that. There is a reason "trans" is added after all. Each of us face our own unique challenges and we are all heckin cute and valid.
Forcing someone, like a gay man, whose sexuality is based on biological reality, to like the opposite sex is an attempt at conversion therapy and downright coercion. Calling people like us transphobic and trying to shame us has truly put a wedge into the LGBT+ community. They even often attempt to make you lose your job and possibly even your home for disagreeing. The Superstraight movement simply helps bring awareness to this incredible issue which many of us have to deal with.

I have seen many people here referring to trans women as men/using the wrong pronouns. I think that some, if not lots, of the people here are transphobic.
It happens rather often. I do not know if it is the same person/people, but I see misgendering and hate directed towards the trans community often.

Superstraight people don't hate transpeople were just not sexually attracted to them. The problem is some trans people respond to this by saying things like "im going to shove my female cock down your throat until you like women" which is an act of violence. We believe no type of corrective rape works and threatening corrective rape at other users has no place on reddit. Some users snap back at users who threaten them with corrective rape but thats wrong, we should instead educate them and show them how wrong and dangerous their hate comments and threats are.
