If there's anything I have learned while flirting with chasers on dating apps, it's that "straightness" is WAY more of a social construct than queerness ever was.
Queerness ends up being just anyone who is "other" than this extremely rigid model of cis and her normativity. You deviate outside of that line ven slightly and suddenly you are one of those "others".
In reality, I would say that "true" straightness is a complete falsehood. Same gender attraction is inherent on a biological level imo, at some varying degrees for everyone.
This isn't "everyone is bi" but moreso that "straightness is a lie that forces people to pretend to be this model of exactness that isn't even how we work"
I think most queer people I know are accepting of some sort of deviation from a norm or non-conformity in a partner, even within their own boundaries, while a lot of cishet ppl I know just exist in this "if my partner is even slightly tainted by otherness, I will be othered too"
All this is to say - cishet ppl, don't be afraid of deviation and don't be afraid of others perceiving you as some amount of queer. Don't lie to yourself when you feel things that would push you out of a perceived necessary line
