Super Straight flag
I propose changing the "Super Straight" flag on this page to File:SuperStraight.png, or amending it into a "gallery" section as an alternative flag. This flag seems to be the more popular/identifiable flag used online. I am unsure which came first, but the symbology of the sex symbols seem to be catching on a lot more in those circles, which is understandable as the 2-tone plain flag seems to be rather plain. Further, it is easy to mistake it with the anarchist Mutualism flag. --Kizzycocoa(talk) 02:09, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

Super Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual
I tried to add pages for these spinoff sexualities, but it seems a moderator deemed them unnecessary. Nevertheless, these concepts exist, and I feel it is important they too are noted. If they aren't to have their own pages, I would recommend adding redirects on each of these other sexualities, and have them point to a section on this page that outlines their existence. I'd further suggest adding the respective File:SuperGay.png, File:SuperLesbian.png and File:SuperBisexual.png flags in the previously suggested gallery on this page. --Kizzycocoa(talk) 02:15, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
- The gallery section of this has been sorted, thanks Guns Før Hands!
- Though the redirects seem to be rejected. I still think there should be redirects for these other terms. Why were they deleted? --Kizzycocoa(talk) 04:20, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
4Chan Nazi Flag
Would it be for the best we add the 4Chan version of Super Straight? That flag originated from 4chan and I do believe we should add this to inform. --Unsigned comment by Transgender_Cat
- I would disagree with the addition of that flag. To their credit, anyone even half-serious about this sexuality actively disavows the SS flag/Nazism, and it seems even within the 4chan place of origin as several people were remixing the flag, it was slapped down mere moments after being posted. even 4chan had the sense to reject that design when popularising it.
- It is worth noting that 4Chan attempted to append nazi symbolism to the sexuality (as it currently does), but I think that flag holds no validity among the vast majority who have picked this up. --Kizzycocoa(talk) 07:12, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

This article misses the point
This article is biased and fails to inform that the purpose of this sexual orientation is to defend the right to be attracted to who you are attracted to. In a wikia that even has an article about the "gamer" gender it's very strange that the people here can't accept the simple fact that some people are only attracted to people of the other sex.
SS is a sarcastic critique of people who claims that straight people can't choose not to date trans people and how their arguments are suspiciously close to the arguments bigoted people use to invalidate gays or trans people, which is ironic. This article fails to see that irony and therefore fails to see the purpose of the SS movement which is simply that people are tired of being told what they should be attracted to and of people telling them their sexuality isn't valid and being called transphobic for not wanting to date trans people. There is nothing transphobic about this sexual orientation unless you take as true the dogma that if you don't want to date trans people you are transphobic. But I think that's open to debate and you shouldn't impose that opinion on others and use the term "transphobic" so lightly.
Also trying to associate the super straight with the Nazis is dishonest since 4chan has also made trans flags with the Nazi symbol and memes that mix the transsexual with the Nazi and this isn't mentioned on the wiki page about transsexuals.

As an administrator I would like to clarify on some things. Firstly many take this seriously, and it its no longer something that's a light-hearded troll movement, its beginning to hurt transgender lives. There's plenty of testimonies where queer/LGBT+ people's account was doxxed or nearly by these people. Above that many use this seriously as it is seen in Reddit. I would also like to add its important to talk about 4chan and TERFs taking this term to hurt others with it. Above that this doesn't qualify as an orientation, but more as a label. I understand the light bias and I can do my best to adjust that but saying its an entire satire run is wrong. Many people are using this to be transphobic, in addition to that Super Straight is very much transphobic. As it implies its better to not date trans people. Its not transphobic to not date us but its transphobic to act you are more of a certain orientation to not date us. Please understand this is meant to be an overview on the entire event. But if you want me to remove biased wording kindly point this out to me so I can adjust it properly.
