straight edge

"Straightedge" was a song by Minor Threat recorded in the early 80s. No drugs, no excessive drinkin, or casual sex. Being straight-edge is not following a set of rules, it is following an ideal. People who are straight-edge are not against drinking, they are against drinking excessively; alcohol is not poisonous in small quantities, nor do such small quantities alter your state of mind. The whole principle behind sXe, as it is referred to, is purity/clarity of body and mind.

To see where straight-edge came from, here are the lyrics to "Straightedge" written by Ian McKaye of Minor Threat in 1981.

"I'm a person just like you
But I've got better things to do
Than sit around and fuck my head
Hang out with the living dead
Snort white shit up my nose
Pass out at the shows
I don't even think about speed
That's something I just don't need

I've got the straight edge

I'm a person just like you
But I've got better things to do
Than sit around and smoke dope
'Cause I know I can cope
Laugh at the thought of eating ludes
Laugh at the thought of sniffing glue
Always gonna keep in touch
Never want to use a crutch

I've got the straight edge"

As you can see, sXe is not against drinking; it's against getting messed up.

More recently, some who are sXe are also against eating processed foods which can also poison the body, or against eating meat. Most straight-edge people also refrain from casual sex, as they beleive that too is a form of mind-poison.

Also, while being straight-edge doesnt mean you CAN'T drink, most of those who are sXe do not.
Guy: "Hey man, wanna hit?"
sXe: "Nah, I'm straight-edge."

Super Straight

"Super-Straight" is a made up "sexuality/preference" created by transphobes. "Super-Straight" means to only be attracted to cisgender people. This "sexuality/preference" is incredibly transphobic because being "super-straight" means you only see transgender people as the gender they were born with; and while having a genital preference is completely valid, excluding post-op transgender people is not. "Super-Straights" are not a part of the LGBTQ+. Do not mistake this for this cisgender version of T4T (Trans for Trans).
Not good at examples, sorry!
