There is the assumption built into the scale that bisexuals (who are identical to pansexuals????) are attracted to trans people. Thanks, superstraights!

I think gender intensity might be how stereotyped your gendered behavior is.

FYI there is also supergay, superlesbian and superbi (sLGBS) because everyone is fed up with the genderists bullshit.

I'm aware, I just don't like that little scale.

You can't beg out of attraction to trans people ("I literally can't be attracted to you, I'm superstraight") and then leave the bis hanging with no excuse.

Yes, it's petty and dumb but, dammit, so am I.

It's not LG's job to make up an excuse for you. They're just describing their own orientations. The fact is, LG are literally incapable of being attracted to the opposite sex, while for bi people, it's just a/n (understandably very common) preference. You don't need an excuse; you have the right to say no.
