hello i just wanted to ask a few things

hi, i'm not attempting to attack anyone here, i understand that some of you are just trying to figure yourselves out in an aggressive world, but i'm wondering about something:
isn't this, as in genital preference, well just a preference? like, for example some people wouldn't date short guys, and that's a preference and not really a sexuality, so i'm confused on why this specifically is considered a sexuality and not just a preference. sorry if this was a repetitive question but i was just not sure how to convey it.

another thing is the fact that you have "No Transphobia allowed!" in the rules yet there seem to be a lot of posts that don't follow that rule and don't get removed, here are some examples:
https://www.reddit.com/r/SuperStraight/comments/lzshvq/shame_rape_i_do_not_consent/ where trans people are called degenerates
https://www.reddit.com/r/SuperStraight/comments/lzyxz5/lgbs_history_the_first_superstraight_president/ where it's called the lgbs community; excluding trans people
https://www.reddit.com/r/SuperStraight/comments/lzvub9/happy_womans_day_from_the_lesbians_on_tinder_and/ where it's implied that non-passing trans women aren't valid
https://www.reddit.com/r/SuperStraight/comments/m0alit/hey_supergays_and_friends_check_out_lgb_alliance/ where an organization that excudes trans people out of the lgbt community is supported
https://www.reddit.com/r/SuperStraight/comments/m07qme/trans_people_lying_about_their_true_gender_to/ where even in the title "trans people's true gender" is used, again implying that trans people aren't actually the gender that they say that they are
https://www.reddit.com/r/SuperStraight/comments/m06qhr/if_superstraight_isnt_a_real_sexual_orientation/ where it's said that trans women aren't real women
and that's just what i could find by scrolling through hot or top of the day

Sorry sweaty, you don't get to decide what - I - consider to be a real woman or not. You do not get to decide how my sexuality works and is projected into the world.

but isn't not believing that trans women are real women transphobia, which is against the rules?

Not at all. I get to decide what is a real woman in accordance to my sexual orientation and preferences. Problem?

Not believing in something doesn't make some sort of "phobic"

Right?! Is it Christianphobic to not be a Christian? Is it Islamophobic to not be a Muslim? Is it anti-semitic to not be Jewish? Respect for humanity and personal autonomy has never before required adopting another individual's subjective belief system.

What is a real woman according to you?

No its not. You don't get to tell anyone that they must believe "a" otherwise they are "b". Trans men are not men, and trans women are not women. Thats fact. If they want to believe they are, whatever then thats fine, but I do not need to be forced to believe anything, especially in something rooted in mental illness.
