I mean ALL of it, not just cis-het normative stuff. If you're asexual or just want to be serious, it's annoying having things like "I wish Marx and Engels would rail me in a threesome! :pingu-horny: " stuff in the posts/comments. Just as annoying as having some hot blonde girl with big boobs shoved in your face.

    Although I hate it whenever the pronoun tags give away when someone is talking about being straight and especially a straight man with relationship talk

    Why do you hate it when straight people, especially men talk about their relationships?

    (I'm not trying to be an annoying "straight pride" piss baby, I'm genuinely interested in learning if there's something I can do as a straight-presenting guy to avoid making people uncomfortable)

      Imagine you are in a room trying to get loose and have a good time. There are about 50 people in this room, all talking loudly and hanging out, and its very noisy and people are in your space, like at a crowded bar. On reddit, even on the old subreddit, the room feels like 40 of the 50 people are young-adult, non-dropout, white American, straight, and men. This is a loud type of person, and occasionally an annoying one. They can be funny and agreeable, but still, that can be a tough room to spend a lot of time in, right? Here, it mostly feels like maybe 20 of the 50 fit that description, a much more comfortable breakdown. But in reality it is still majority that. So hearing men whine about woman problems breaks the illusion that this is a mostly GSM site, makes it feel like reddit again.

      So how to solve this? No solution besides all you become gay and trans, easy enough if you really think about it. But failing that, just gotta accept that sometimes things you say are gonna be annoying to others. That's life. People are gonna hate when you do your thing, at least they aren't gonna be violent to you about it, count your blessings
