If everyone in your life seems to be a problem, it's evidence that you are in denial that you are actually the problem.

The point of this community isn't just "make fun of straight people", it's mocking toxic heteronormativity by reposting memes / comics / pictures of weird "haha i hate my wife" or similar memes, or in the case of this post "haha, if you have autonomy you clearly can't be married, because we're all trapped in our marriages".

Just like the original subreddit, hetero people are welcome here and hetero hate is not.

I'm approximately cishet, and I approve of this joke, for whatever that's worth.

I agree that it wouldn't be okay for cishet people to make this joke about gay people. For one thing, that would be punching down at the systemically oppressed, rather than punching up, and that matters.

Is someone holding these poor souls hostage and forcing them to be together?

Rules:

  1. Post examples of toxic heteronormativity only.
  2. Be nice and respectful.
