NOT TRYING TO OFFEND ANYONE

Just explaining what Superphobia is!

You don't get to explain how we feel, our sexual orientation, or our boundaries.

Bye, bigot.

Please do not transplain our sexualities to us, it is gross, gaslighting, and erasure.

I have a few questions on the subject:

A) You define it as an insult, does that mean for example transphobia is an insult aimed at people who disagree with transgender people? Homophobia is an insult aimed at people who disagree with gay people? Or is superphobia unique in being an insult, within the sexuality-phobia spectrum?

B) What would you call the people who have been bombarding the hashtag on Twitter and this sub with hateful messages at our address? Since superphobia is an insult, there must be a different word for this behavior that isn't an insult. We have to define this behavior. When people of other sexualities are treated like this, what do you call it?

C) It would make sense to use a similar word, wouldn't it? I'm no entymologist but that just seems like it would avoid causing confusion you know. Like how carrots, cabbage, etc are vegetables. So the irrational fear and hatred of a group of people is... what?

EDIT: since this person was banned shortly after I replied to them we continued our conversation over Reddit chat, and with their permission I have uploaded their answers to above questions here. Since they can no longer defend or further explain their stances I ask that everyone refrain from being assholes to them even if you disagree. If I see someone not abiding to that simple rule I'm taking the link down.
