Gay Panic Attack

Definition accustomed to queer folks who love women but can be applied to all the LGBTQ+ community:
The moment when you see a beautiful woman and you just get overwhelmed by her beauty so instead of figuring out what to do next, your brain gets stuck into a loop of aggressively internally screaming WOMAN.
Friend: Why didn't you talk to her if you found her attractive.
Me: I couldn't, I was having a Gay Panic Attack.

Gay panic defense

A legal strategy where the defendant claims to have acted in a state of violent, temporary insanity, committing assault or murder, because of unwanted same-sex sexual advances. A defendant may allege to have found the same-sex sexual advances so offensive or frightening that they were provoked into reacting, were acting in self-defense, were of diminished capacity, or were temporarily insane.
Some guy called Gabi dressed in leather overalls cornered me and made unwanted sexual advances in Folsom Street. I became so terrified and frightened for my safety that in a state of panic and self defence, I beat him to a bloody pulp and snapped his neck over a gutter. Next day I pled the gay panic defense and got off with a handshake from the judge.
