Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

To appease a Steam user's demands for straight representation, Webfishing added a 'Straight' title that costs 9,999 fish bucks (www.pcgamer.com)

but I don't see why I can't also be proudly straight

Ignoring all the power dynamics reasons why this is nonsensical, what does straight pride look like to you? What exactly are you being denied in terms of self-expression or inclusion?

The whole system is built around you being straight, idiot. You aren't oppressed.

Follow-up question: Are you literally a baby in a diaper?

its ok to vilify straightness hope this helps. you are not oppressed in any way for being straight lmao. this is the "complaining about anti-white racism" of misunderstanding sexuality power dynamics. queer people are telling you to shut up and you're doubling down on your chauvinism, consider touch-grass you suck!

If you never leave the online world then the only oppression you can know is being called mean words. That's the only way these people can justify what they're saying. Dang, someone called you a cissy and you don't get a little 'straight' title in a game? Awesome! Hope this brutal oppression keeps going!
