totally straight

Boy is this guy not gay. Hey, did you ever hear him tell you about the time he was totally having sex with this chick? This guy is NOT GAY... just ask him... or don't, he'll tell you anyway.
"Man, I'm so totally straight. I would never have sex with a dude, I have sex with women! Did I mention that I'm straight?"

it's straight 

A phrase synonymous with "it's all good" or "don't worry about it." This idiom starkly contrasts with its polar opposite phrase, "that's gay." I'm not sure when sexuality became a parallel point of reference for agreeability.
Guy 1: Hey man, I know I owe you 20 bills, but is it cool if I pay you back next week?

Guy 2: It's straight.
