A term coined within recent years, which means the hate or general dislike of heterosexual people. It is extremely controversial and scrutinized, specifically by 2SLGBTQ+ people. Now personally I believe it is an issue, although it isn't as big of an issue, it's still as important. The aforementioned 2SLGBTQ+ people (Two-Spirited, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer +*) do have a certain group of them that enjoy scrutinizing heterosexual people for their orientation, or acting as if they're superior to heterosexuals, this is mostly seen on Tumblr, Twitter and rarely on Instagram. (Now please keep in mind I'm saying a certain group, not generalizing all of these people, which I've actually seen the reverse happen on the aforementioned social media platforms.) Though heterosexuals aren't marginalized, that doesn't leave an excuse to attempt to scrutinize them. For example, if a heterosexual was mean to you, it doesn't make them all horrible and give you an excuse to hurt them on social media. Same goes for having a bad experience with homosexuals, it doesn't make them all horrible and give you an excuse to hurt them on social media. Both sides have problems, but the (legitimate, not the ones homophobes have) problems with 2SLGBTQ+ people sometimes go ignored. I wish we could all get along, but there will always be hate in this world, on both sides

Get the Heterophobic mug.The discrimination against straight people.
It is real, because claiming something shitty just because a person is straight is discrimination in and of itself.

Get the Heterophobic mug.Any action or person that exhibits prejudice against heterosexual (straight) people or trends. Typically, you will not hear someone being called a heterophobe, since normally there are more homophobic people. While you could consider a person saying "fuck cisgender people" as heterophobic, the majority of social media users will argue otherwise (there are some cases of actual, harmful heterophobia but they get swept under the rug). Most likely, there is no real fire behind that phrase and the straight person being targeted realistically has no sweat off their back (not counting for actual hate crimes committed by an LGBT person against a straight person specifically for being straight. I would think that happens very rarely).
Yes it is an uno-reverse card (how historically people would say homophobic things) and does not promote the correct kind of equality (we just cut it out with the hate speech/acts in general). Hopefully people can cease to be X-phobic and jokes can return to being purely for fun and not a direct attack.
This definition might become very unpopular because it's not committing to either extreme of "It exists and we are in danger!!!" or "That's fake af. Stop pretending to be a victim!!!"

Poor example:
LGBT person: Wow straight people have it easy in life; they don't have to be scrutinized for liking someone. So annoying.
Straight person: That's pretty heterophobic! I am offended!
Other straight person: Bro shut up. It's not that big a deal and at most annoying to hear.
Better example:
LGBT person: Some cis guy told me that not all straight people are bad. Fuck that guy and I hope cis scum go to hell!
Straight person: That's pretty heterophobic, and I'm offended!
Social media: fuck off cis boy.
Also social media: this is true, not everyone is as bad as you think.
Basically you just use your brain to discern if you are being harmed or not.
