    '''Straight''' is a slang term for '''heterosexual''', which is the attraction to people of the opposite gender, or the attraction to gender(s) unlike one's own. It is considered the opposite of [[vincian]] and [[lesbian]]. More specifically straight is most commonly used to mean men attracted to women and women attracted to men. The term "straight" is used to describe for both straight men and straight women.


    An alternate definition of straight is someone who is attracted to those of a different gender, or someone who is attracted to gender(s) unlike one's own. The usage of the word opposite in the standard definition implies there that are only two genders, men and women, and that those genders are opposites, if people are referring to [[Antigender|antigenders]] then they may use [[enanteic]], or [[contraic]] if they are non-binary. A relationship between two people of dissimilar gender is often called "straight" however this is not always accurate as one or both people might be [[Pluralian|multisexual]], a relationship between a woman and a man can be called [[duaric]] instead of straight, and [[ultramoric]] if one is [[unstraight]]. A relationship with two people of different genders caused by one of the parties being [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] can be called [[diamoric]]. Non-binary people who feel they are straight but in a uniquely non-binary way may identify as [[strayt]]. If someone is attracted to multiple [[Nongender|nongenders]] they could be [[penultisexual]] or [[differosexual]].
