Also known as the Gay Seat or the I'm Not Gay Seat.

Referenced by Ray Romano in his stand-up act: it refers to the empty seat left between two straight males sitting in a movie theater together as proof to the rest of the audience that they are not there as a couple, and infact, just hetreosexual friends.
Even though were we in a crowded movie theater, watching an action movie, my pal and I had to leave the heterosexual safety seat between us just in case anyone was looking.
