Comphet stands for “compulsory heterosexuality.” It has it’s own definition on Wikipedia or whatever, and that’s generally correct, but not entirely.

Comphet is a term generally used in lesbian circles that refers to when a lesbian is led to think that she’s attracted to men. This can manifest in her also knowing she’s into women, and thinking she’s bi, or her not even recognizing she’s into women, and thinking she’s straight. This experience can be hard for them to go through.

This happens to gay men to an extent as well, but not nearly as often or strongly.

Person 1: Why did you date Boy? You’re a lesbian, right?
Lesbian: Oh, that was just comphet.

comphet

Short for “compulsory heterosexuality.” This is “the idea that heterosexuality is assumed and enforced by a patriarchal society. This refers to the idea that heterosexuality can be adopted by people regardless of their personal sexual preferences from Wikipedia.”

Friend 1: I know I’m only attracted to girls, but I’ve been weirdly obsessed with Chris Hemsworth lately.

Friend 2: Sounds like a comphet crush to me.

comphet crush

google what comphet is first and then come back.

When a lesbian has a platonic crush on a guy due to their compulsory heterosexuality (comphet). Normally it’s a celebrity or a fictional character who they will never meet and that they know they will never actually have a relationship with.

“oh my god have you seen dylan o’brien??? he’s so hot.”
“wait aren’t you a lesbian tho?”

“yeah he’s just my comphet crush, i would never actually date him”
