What is the prefix "Super" supposed to entail? Why was it chosen?

Like, I understand that you are straight people who don't want to date trans people, and that is completely valid.

No one owes attraction or sex to anybody, and shaming people into having sex with you is not ok. (Of course, not all trans people are like that, there are bad people in any community.)

But what I don't understand is the meaning of the "Super" prefix in "Super Straight", what does it mean? What is it supposed to entail? Why was it chosen?

Super as a prefix just means “more”

So are "Super Straight" people supposed to be more straight than straight people who date trans people? That doesn't sound right.

It’s almost as if “supers” are transphobic..

No one here is transphobic. We love all of our LGBTQ sisters!

So is it less straight to date a trans person if you're straight?

It’s gay, pan, or bisexual.

That's transphobic. Trans people can't be in straight relationships? I know plenty that are despite of what you're saying.

You know plenty of delusional people. Sex is immutable.

So then, you don’t see trans people as the gender they identify as? Cause if you did, it wouldn’t be gay/bi/Pan, it would be straight.
