It turns out I'm a SuperLesbian

I think you mean Super LeDollarBean actually

Liked the video but god, sexuality has got ridiculously complicated recently. Go super lesbians I say.

@Cailleach1, I have no idea!

@FullofCurryandparatha

"Has anyone told the straightmenz that they are supposed to be attracted to transwomen (with penises)?"... well, no... because they are only interested in harassing women.... as far as I can tell.. but my views might be biased based on what I read and where I read it.

#superstraught is a new one on me. Do you exercise to achieve this?

I don’t mind SuperStraight. I know why it’s pissing some people off, but I think it’s fair. I’m superstraught and that’s my sexuality.

Does it change your sexual orientation if you can appreciate a man in a kilt?

I think that makes you SuperTea!

I actually like men in skirts, so if it were not for my wedding vows, I would consider dating a transwoman. However, I suspect that would upset them as I would be attracted to them on a biological basis. Tis a bit tricky. May have to stick to men in kilts.

I don't think you'd be bisexual.

You'd only be attracted to someone of a one sex. Not all people of that sex; just when a person of that sex professes a certain 'gender identity'.

There needs to be another picture and term, doesn't here?

According to that chart, I'm super straight. However, whilst I will defend anybody's right to live as they want to live and to be attracted to and have a relationship with whoever they please to the day I die, I still choose to identify myself as a straight or heterosexual woman.

What if I'm bisexual but only attracted to trans men, not trans women?

Thanks for explaining the 'super' think in pictures.

I had no idea hasn't bothered and don't really care what it was.

I'm now super up to date.

I thought it was that your attraction is independent of gender and relies on sex, but this just shows no attraction to trans people regardless of their sex.

It does just rely on sex. The superstraight men and superlesbian women will still be attracted to Elliot Page, but obviously it's not going to work out because Elliot is a man, so it would be dreadfully invalidating for him - "I fancy you because you're female". So they'll quietly keep this unrequited attraction to themselves, and look for relationships with female women.

There are two views on this. #superstraight is:

1. attraction to people of the opposite sex whatever their gender; or
2. attraction to people of the opposite sex who are not trans.

Although 2) is more easily to cast as being "transphobic" I'm willing to say that after 4 years of looking at the identity wars over trans means that I don't find the idea of a person having a trans identity attractive.

Good point Long! We really should get capes*

I'd like a toaster upgrade if no-one minds?

😁

Is that what supersexuality is? I thought it was that your attraction is independent of gender and relies on sex, but this just shows no attraction to trans people regardless of their sex. E.g. Elliot Page, not sure if there is an intent to start testosterone, but the body is the same as before the 'coming out', so I am sure plenty of straight men and lesbian women will still be attracted to Elliot but gay men and straight women didn't magically become attracted.

Congratulations Sapphos! These means you may now also use the pronouns supershe/superher!!

I’m sorry OP. That’s appalling. I feel like the trans women dont want to share our spaces - they want to dominate them.

I miss Magdelen

The point isn't about what the women want. It's about how "women who want sex with women born with vaginas" can be put under pressure to have sex with transwomen.

And that means they are expected to have sex with people with penises as it's an exclusionary "genital preference" to not want sex with MTF trans people (the majority of whom don't have genital surgery to create a neovagina) because TWAW.

(The wonderful late Magdalen Berns because I wouldn't inflict Riley J Dennis on anyone)

But surely a woman who wants sex with a man that identifies now as a woman is more, erm, niche than women who want sex with women born with vaginas?

The point isn't about what the women want. It's about how "women who want sex with women born with vaginas" can be put under pressure to have sex with transwomen.
