A previously trending term used during early quarantine to delineate between 'bland' posts on TikTok and more emerging uses of the app, including offbeat 'Gen Z humor' and strange/humourous challenges or inside jokes. 'Straight TikTok' denotes videos of 'Thirst Traps', videos made for the creator to seem attractive or appealing, or videos made by the mainstream internet celebrities made famous by, or partaking in, TikTok e.g. Noah Beck or Charli D'amelio.
The use of 'Straight' to describe this type of feed could be because 'Straight TikTok' featured videos produced by conventionally attractive heterosexual female and male users for audiences of their opposite gender. It may have also originated from the perception that non-conventional humor and styles were commonly engaged with by people who were not heterosexual or cisgendered (like Emo or Scene culture).
The term became outdated near the end of 2020 as the trends it delineated between declined (like 'FrogTok' and other 'sides' of TikTok), and the changing culture of TikTok which saw a wide acceptance of liking TikTok celebrities and enjoying others' and ones own attractiveness without societal guilt or 'cringe'.
Despite the term literally originating from heterosexuality, sexuality often did not designate which version of the algorithmic For You Page a user of TikTok was on, simply the type of videos in their feed. E.g. a straight person could be on 'Gay TikTok' and a homosexual person could be on 'Straight TikTok'.

People (usually posers) who usually only listen to songs/bands they found on tiktok, and usually don’t know shit about politics. They most of the time argue about random things nobody does anymore like how lace code is relevant or not in their small suburb of Mississippi. A lot of tiktok punks at shows will usually be seen wearing stuff that’s not normally seen in places where people mosh, like their worn down demonias and a shit ton of chains that’ll definitely get ripped off.
Sometimes they actually get into punk because they’re mostly just kids who only just discovered their first band, so if they don’t seem too bad, help me out and recommend music. But some will just grow out of it, or be bullied out. It’s a shame cus a lot of newbies are potentially cool, but just super cringe.

1.The intense keyboard warriors that believe they’re fighting tooth and nail for people in different cultures, sexuality’s and abilities but go too far to the point they’re being racist, homophobic and ableist to the same people they claim to protect.
1: Hey, did you know I’m a bisexual activist.
2: omg that’s super cool! Hey do you watch that new lgbt film? Aren’t the main couple so cute?
1: omg ew what! They’re fetishizing gay people by making lgbt people exist in movies!!!
2: ….. you must’ve saw some thing about fetishization on Tiktok and thought it actually correlated with this. Most definitely a Tiktok educated thing to say.
