@evacide We never even saw a fraction of this level of freakout when gay people referred to non-gay people as "straight people" or the term "heteronormativity". I wonder why the pearl clutching orders of magnitude greater over this very bland term.
@hankg@evacide they have to accept that their view of the world is fundamentally wrong. the changes that came with (the visibility&acceptance of) homo people did not shake up the roots of their worldview even nearly as much.
because sexual orientation almost only affects relationships between people and is comparatively private, gender is engraved into every aspect of society and messing with worldviews on such a deep level frightens some people a lot.
