    Congratulations on contributing to othering and discrimination against yourselves and your communities.

    If I were straight I’d be offended at this, not because I’m a fragile widdle loser, but because it literally implies LGBT people are not normal, and it’s a setback in society’s fight for equality.

    I’m glad I was born a normal straight instead of a really fucking fragile straight.

      I theorize that the fragile straights aren’t actually straight. Which I assume is what the developer is poking fun at with the quotation marks.

      Our social default is still to assume that most people are straight. It doesn’t make sense for a straight person to have a driving need to prove that they are straight … unless they think someone would have a good reason to put them into a “non-straight” category.

    This reminds me of my friend. “I’m so gay I’m not even straight-up gay. I’m gay-up gay.”

    Is that uh… Is that a lot?

    This is fuckin dumb one way or another but if 10,000 fishbucks is a lot factors in a fair amount.

      It’s not Valve/Steam dictating this. Its a user demanding it and the devs taking the piss.
