LGB VictoryLGB-supportive posts on r/SuperStraight, and "drop the T"-supportive sentiment

submitted by reluctant_commenter from self.LGBDropTheT

All right, I swear. 4th time's the charm. Thanks Automod. Censored "T**F" and other words.

I shared some posts from r/SuperStraight here, but the post was removed by a mod for being too general because it direct-linked to the archived posts of r/SuperStraight on archive.is, if you wanted to go hunting for gems yourself.

Anyway, here are some of the wholesome posts with better organization. The whole "superstraight" thing is one of the first times I've seen where straight men, in any significant-size group, have expressed

a) support and awareness of LGB people facing violence and harassment from trans rights activists, and

b) potentially some interest in "drop the T" sentiments.

edits:

  • edit1: flairing this as a victory because I think it's awesome to see so many straight people supporting lesbian/gay/bisexual people. Updated an archive link under the "Lesbian" section.

updates:

  • r/SuperStraight made private again around 3:30am 03/09/21 in the UK (I don't live on T**F Isle but I dedicate this post to JKR) edit: 15min after: https://archive.is/v7qWc

As a lesbian, I've faced more homophobia from trans people than from my Muslim family. Can't tell you the number of times I've heard "if you use straps you should take dick", "cis lesbian [REDACTED] need to stfu and choke on dick", "lesbians LOVE dick", "you're not a lesbian if you won't date transwomen", etc etc. It really took a terrible toll on my mental health and self-acceptance, but I kept telling myself over and over, just wait until they start coming for straight people, that's when the shit will blow up in their faces. And now here we are. This sub is not only fucking hilarious and excellent satire of how trans extremists behave, it also point-blank addresses the issue of severe rape culture in the trans movement, which is something us SuperLesbians and SuperGays have been trying to talk about forever, but we just get called slurs and told to go die in graphic, sexually violent ways.

Anyway, as a Superlesbian, I'm so fucking glad people are talking about this shit.

As much as it's refreshing to see this many people sick to death of gender ideology, I hope you don't forget about the homosexuals who deal with this shit in our day to day lives, who can't speak about it without losing our friends and jobs, who are sent conversion therapy rhetoric to overcome our "genital preference", who aren't allowed a space to ourselves or to even name ourselves in a way that excludes the opposite sex.

I just created this account, because I have not been able to voice this concern out of fear of being called a “transphobe.” I know Supersexuals is a meme right now..but I’m hoping it can shed some light on the dating woes of numerous lesbians.

From the comments (straight guy):

You don't have to convince us you're not a transphobe just because you're sexually attracted to who you're sexually attracted to. You're welcome here sister, you're one of us, and I hope one day your dream comes true, and you can just be yourself again without fear of bigotry or hatred from anyone.

From the post:

As a superlesbian, I feel for you. Young lesbians are told that we are "genital fetishists" for being gay within the LGBT community everyday. We are shamed for being homosexuals and are a proud part of this super movement.

Reddit also [automod edit: erases] any subreddit that is exclusively for homosexual women because it hurts transfeelings that we are gay. r/truelesbians and r/biologicallesbians were [automod edit: erased] for that very reason. Basically, many members of the trans community feel super entitled to be super homophobic to us superlesbians.

As a lesbian, I am a proud part of the super lesbian, super gay, super bi, and the super straight movement. #LGBS will prevail!

I have been told multiple time IRL and online that I'm transpobic because I don't want to date/sex a transman. I'm not attracted to vaginas. I'm not attracted to boobs. I'm also not attracted to fake pecs and fake dicks. I am a supergay and I support the superstraights.

As SuperGay, I think I say for all of us that we stand together with SuperStraight community against bigotry and hate that plagues our society.

Bisexual

Somebody made a "SuperBisexual" flag that looks kind of like the actual bisexual flag and also the "SuperStraight" flag, lol.

From the post:

I really want this 'Super' movement to be a wake up call for everyone. And I really want it to be a clean one. I don't want this to turn into either a meme or an Opression Olympics or some trend that dies in a week. I want everyone to start saying stop to the constant bullying you face regardless of what you do because there's always one group you won't satisfy. I want the rest of the LGBT community to understand that 'Super' doesn't mean transphobic. We don't hate anyone. We respect all gender identities and all non-super sexualities. But we want to make it clear that bullying people into dating you is not okay.

From the post:

Every exclusively LGB (lesbian, gay, & bisexual) community on Reddit has been [automod edit: erased] from this site. If we try to find our own space that doesn’t primarily focus on the TQ+ community, we’re silenced. ...

I thought at first this was some kind of hate community, but I don’t think that’s the case after all. You don’t hate anyone LGBT and you understand sexuality is attraction to biological sex rather than gender identity. I’m hoping the creation of this subreddit will somehow help us get our voices back.

I’m so glad that some 16 year old kid on tiktok opened the eyes of so many people to what the LGB have been facing for years

Sometimes chemical reactions need only a tiny catalyst in order to do big things. The TRAs had been packing more and more gunpowder into smaller and smaller spaces until finally that kid gave the spark needed to ignite it all

[–]ArthnoldManacatsaman🇬🇧🌳🟦 13 insightful - 1 fun13 insightful - 0 fun14 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

And long may it continue! We knew this would happen though; that one day straight people would get wind of these delusive beliefs about sexuality and shut that shit down stat.

[–]Three_oneFourWanted for thought crimes in countless ideologies 10 insightful - 1 fun10 insightful - 0 fun11 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Well, the straights have shown that they're willing to sit by while something other than them directly is destroying us, but when that problem starts to target them, too? Then they show how much they're actually willing to do to solve the problem. The TRAs got cocky and now have opened a pandora's box that they aren't ready for

[–]ArthnoldManacatsaman🇬🇧🌳🟦 12 insightful - 1 fun12 insightful - 0 fun13 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

That's a good point, you're right. There has been a certain amount of straight silence in all this, but that's not relevant now that this is blowing up in the faces of the TRAs.

I certainly hope that this isn't just a flash-in-the-pan meme that's forgotten about in a week. Even if that's what does happen, however, it's certainly gratifying to know that literally tens of thousands of people have had enough of this nonsense and will not stand for it.

[–]Three_oneFourWanted for thought crimes in countless ideologies 10 insightful - 1 fun10 insightful - 0 fun11 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I do hope this ends up being the final effort that exterminates gender ideology once and for all

Thanks for compiling this.

Subs almost at 10k and active users over 4k. What now, Reddit TRAs? This is so clearly snowballing to a level they cannot suppress or ignore. Not that they ever could leave anything alone not matter how small it was..

[–]Alma_Esmeraude 19 insightful - 1 fun19 insightful - 0 fun20 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

At this point, if they do try to brigade and ban that sub it'll only draw more attention to their antics... And make curious bystanders investigate a little more. The Streisand Effect lives on.

[–]reluctant_commenter[S] 8 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 0 fun9 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

For better or worse, the sub is already being brigaded, though it may not look like it from the front page.

[–]reluctant_commenter[S] 10 insightful - 1 fun10 insightful - 0 fun11 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

No problem!

The rate of growth is pretty insane. I'm amazed it's still up! I'm a little concerned that people will get bored and wander away once the sub is banned, but we'll see.

Just a couple of specific updates.

First, from /r/SuperBis, this user was suspended sometime very recently it seems, after trying really hard to poison that sub with the nazi trolling + accusations shtick. I'd like to think this is why, but have no idea. Somehow, the false accuser is suspended and SuperBis still lives. That's surprising and they're possibly unrelated facts, but here, for your enjoyment anyway:

  1. The crap he posted here: https://archive.vn/9Bdmi
  2. His account now: https://archive.vn/fysl6

And second, because shared images won't get collected under the same grouping of URLs in the archive:

  1. A post about someone being banned after trying to engage in a dialogue on /r/superstraightphobic: https://archive.vn/iOVbO
  2. The shared images: https://archive.vn/oUDZf and https://archive.vn/KF3qb
