If you're addressing a trans person with that attitude, it's transphobia, because their transition is central to your complaint.

And I would argue that point further because we see it more. How many topics have we had about people trying to justify their non-attraction to trans people?

Contrast that with how many topics we have asking why people don't just use surgery to make themselves pretty. Or topics saying "why do ugly people exist? Why am I forced to look at them?"

this is concerning, how does discussing attraction any close to saying why does X class of people exist?

thats such a gigantic leap I dont understand how you stray this far

There is not need to do that. Everyone will not be attracted to everyone else. Most of the CE are guys. We thus most of have gotten rejected. 'just what the odds are. No one would have any of those ladies rejected us to justify said rejection.

People try to justify it because it's being presented as a moral failing, that there's something immoral about it. As soon as people start acting like not wanting to fuck someone they find ugly is a moral failing, I imagine we'll see a lot of those topics.

anyway I think labeling this as transphobia is really hurting the cause, thankfully they seem to be a minority in their own community to think this way, it just really makes me think of the scenario that happens quite often of women presenting themselves in their best light or taking ambiguous pictures, you get along well online, agree on a date, she shows up, she is obese, you evidently no longer want to have sex with her, youre not fatphobic

I believe they go by "Super Straight" or "Straight-Classic"

What about Straight Zero or Diet Straight?

There is not need to do that.

I agree and yet people do that. The topics exist.

As someone provably against "the cause" I'll thank you not to decide what's good and not good for it.

Your perspective is demonstrably focused around "what triggers me to suddenly act like an asshole". By your own admission, that barrier is "not much", so you're hardly the one in a position to make the call.

We don't have people posting topics trying to justify their lack of attraction to fat people. We do have topics about people justifying their lack of attraction to trans people. That imbalance there is rooted in transphobia.
