Straight: Difference between revisions

Help

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 individuals 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]].

While straight is often used to describe non-[[LGBTA+|LGBT]] people it is possible for straight people to be part of the LGBT community. For example, they might be [[transgender]]. They also might be, [[asexual]] heteroromantic, or [[aromantic]] heterosexual, which also makes them LGBT.
