The word Homo is Latin for Man. Superior is obviously meant above, greater than, or successor to. So it is literally translated as Greater Man or Super Man, similar to that of Nietzsche's idea of the Übermensch or Overman. 
 
Of course I understand the oxymoron that would be Homo Superior. Homo in Greek, does not mean Man but means Same. Sexual obviously referring to a person's orientation.  
 
Thinking as a Homosexual superior to a Heterosexual would be out of the question and therefor it is of itself an oxymoron. There are in fact a few differences in the brains of men of both orientations, and the Homosexual brain is obviously more like a woman's, and as we all know, women are inferior to men in nearly every way. 
 
In short, I too laugh when I first heard the word Homo Superior.
