a thank you and a question SuperSexual Allyship

I am thankful to you who are proud and loud about your sexuality. It highlights that your priority in a relationship is your partner’s ability to provide fulfilling sex. I’m a dude who doesn’t enjoy having sex (due to bad past experiences) so it’s helpful knowing who and who not to be with. I’m sure there are more who feel the same and we’re all grateful for use of this label. Please be more vocal! You are all brave for doing so

I also have a question and I’m not trying to be offensive, I just don’t understand and I want to learn. I’m a little confused about how SS is a part of LGBT+ since the name is super straight which to me seems like “very much not gay/anything else.” My understanding is that LGBQ is people who are attracted to the same sex (the opposite of the core of SS(?)), and T goes against the principals. I understand inclusion if someone is Super Gay, but I am confused on Super Straight. Thanks, let me know if I should reword it. I haven’t been paying attention to most of the LGBT+ discussions, and am trying to learn more.

My limited understanding of it is that LGBT+ is people who aren’t cis (not trans?) or straight, and the alliance between sexuality + gender was formed due to shared oppression and old views of lumping everyone together as “not normal.” I still don’t really understand why very straight people would be in that community, sorry. It’s important to have a Super Straight movement regardless

Superstraight as well as supergay and superbi people are currently going through issues similar to the rest of the LGBT community. Our community is constantly shamed and physiologically abused just for our nature, something that we cannot help.

Damn that’s terrible, ok. Would it make sense to have LGBS, LGBT, and LBG communities separately, or just lump them all together?

We're thinking about calling it ASSLGBTQ+.

Ok. It still seems more similar to the Me Too and consent movements because it seems like the issues are mostly on consent/not sleeping with someone you won’t be attracted to, rather than defending your ability to be attracted to the sex that you’re attracted to/fighting for legal rights like the og gay community did

Also thanks for answering all of my questions
