Sex
Your sex is your biological gender that is assigned at birth. If you are born with a penis, then your sex would be male, and if you were born with a vagina, then it would be female. Here’s how it gets complicated. Gender identity and biological sex are two different things, so if the two aligned, then you are cis(gender), however if they don’t, you are trans(gender). So a trans man’s sex would be female, but gender would be male and vice verca for trans women.

Political compass
The political compass is a political defining square, with four quadrants, with a questionnaire to identify you. As the political spectrum was quite unreflective of a lot of factors, they added a y/social axis to the current x/economic axis. A great example of why this is better than the plain old spectrum is France’s National front. It is often dubbed as “the far right party of France”, however, a lot of its economic policies are further left than the socialist party, so, it would give a lot more context to its beliefs. Authoritarianism tends to believe in government control, while libertarianism tends to believe in less government. Economic left tends to believe in spending more money and being open to progression, while conservatism tends to believe in cutting spending, and taking a cautious approach to progression. This has resulted in left wingers believing in equality and conservatism believing in hierarchy.

Libtard
It’s a term used by people who are authoritarian on the political compass as an insult to people who are libertarian on the compass. Even though it can be used by all authoritarians, you tend to hear it more from authrights rather than authlefts, and tends to be aimed more at liblefts rather than librights.

Heterophobia
Something that pretty much doesn’t exist. The only people you could classify as heterophobic are a few very far left people on Twitter who most likely say ‘heterophobic’ comments to get attention. They don’t affect heterosexual people but a few people claim so. It’s the same thing as people who think all whites are racist. Pretty much nobody thinks that, and if they do it really shouldn’t a big deal to anyone.
