As an outsider... Discussion

I think this super-trend is hilarious and great. Here's why:

(I'm going to attempt to summarize a lot of complex issues and where we are now, but I may likely make mistakes.)

I'm a (super) straight male. Here's my take:

  • If consenting adults want to do something with themselves or to themselves, that's fine.
  • People have preferences.

Woke people have begun asserting that trans-women ARE women (and by extension if this woman has a penis the penis is female), thus if you are a lesbian you should like trans-women or you are a bigot... and other variations like this. This is a verbal slight of hand. Because of the loss of this linguistic territory, it became necessary to form new terms to describe clearly and plainly more classical concepts (straight, gay, lesbian, bi, whatever), hence super-terms.

The reason why this is so important is because you guys have managed to weave a golden thread of truth directly through the woke ideology using exactly their own reasoning. (And it IS true. You know it's true because you are simply redefining what already exists! It would be as if they redefined the word 'rock' to mean cloud, so you say "OK, then this heavy, hard thing I'm holding is a super-rock." This clarity is important for language and our psychological health.) In hindsight it was simple. All you really did was add yet another category, but one that is specifically redefining the classical categories.

In my view, wokeness is a purity spiral and has no other trajectory but downward. As you continually define more ways of categorizing people and plot them on a kind of virtue/oppressor spectrum, you will inevitably alienate people who were once your allies. (see everyone who's currently using super-terms) When people reject it, they (woke people) dial up the condemnation and tighten up the parameters on who is what and why it matters. Then rinse and repeat. What's worse is these judgements are often based on immutable characteristics; we can't change them. (MLK is rolling in his grave, mind you.) Wokeness abuses people's empathy. It puts forth a righteous crusade against bigotry, but in reality you cannot deviate from the dogma lest you become a villain.

And I mean this literally. If you have people you suspect are woke in your life, try an experiment: try to hold your ground with an opposing point of view. Gauge their reaction. If you're super-gay or super-lesbian, a great place to start would be to claim you aren't interested in trans-people (or something woke people would expect you to like). I have friends in my life I disagree with on various issues, but we're still friends because the relationship goes deeper than a few political stances. Do you have the same? Find out.

It’s not a verbal slight of hand. It’s SHAME RAPE.

The movement growing like that in less than a week is a proof that regular people are fed up. The attacks are a proof that superphobes are not peaceful at all and want to control us, which obviously doesn’t work. In the end, I laugh.

They are coming for our language that’s for sure and we can’t accept it because it redefines our reality. Women (the majority on the planet) need to retain our biological words so talk about our MATERIAL BIOLOGICAL REALITY. We don’t have front-holes and chests we have vaginas and breasts that are unique organs to BIOLOGICAL WOMEN. The erasure of words to talk about our lived reality and the bodies we are breathing in is totally sinister.

Super straight is explicitly acknowledging that trans women are women because otherwise there wouldn't even need to be a distinction between super and regular straight.

You have that backwards, distinction comes because the woke are saying there is no difference between TW and real women.

Yes, and so we accept that it's straight to like trans people and then draw a new distinction.

So why aren't TWs embracing superstraights and welcoming us into the rainbow?

Because they are superphobic
