First and foremost, straights: We see you<\/em>. For too long, your culture has been shrouded in obscurity, and even shame. But your queer friends and neighbors are here to support you in your journey to share your true selves with the world\u2014whether you\u2019re a suburban Texas mom whose identity is inexplicably linked to your Stanley cup, or a teen-age boy in Florida who posts really gross stuff in subreddits. We may not always understand you, but know that you are loved.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s 2025, and our society should be evolved enough to finally recognize the important contributions that the straight community has made to our culture. We\u2019re here to honor notable heterosexuals such as Jimmy Buffett, Margaret Thatcher, and Kendall Jenner. Did you know that even former President Ronald Reagan was rumored to be a straight man?<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

While we are absolutely on board to support you\u2014we\u2019re even making T-shirts!\u2014we hope that you\u2019ll be patient with us as we learn to accept your life-style choices. Some of us are still struggling to wrap our heads around straight cultural hallmarks such as peel-and-stick wallpaper, Keurig coffee, and sex that is only satisfying for one partner.<\/p>\n

Rest assured, though, we won\u2019t just be sitting on the sidelines for Awesome Fest. We\u2019ll be right there with you for every activity. The nonbinary folks will cheer you on at the Kohl\u2019s Cash Dash; lesbians will help you shovel asphalt at the Driveway Repave-athon; and we\u2019re working on finding volunteers to wipe away your tears as you struggle into shapewear at the Negative Body Talk Booth (admittedly, no one\u2019s rushing to sign up for this one).<\/p>\n

Then we\u2019ll raise skinny margs to toast your unexamined desire to make sweet love to the opposite sex, and bond over unlimited breadsticks from the Olive Garden. These rituals are part of your culture\u2019s rich tapestry, and we\u2019re here to honor them. Who knows? At the end of that caloric roller coaster, we may find out that we\u2019re more alike than we think!<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t worry, we\u2019re sticking around for the after-party, too! Some of the lesbians (not naming names) have had their bachelorette parties at straight bars\u2014it\u2019s just so fun to let loose without feeling the pressure to impress a room full of queer women, you know? We can\u2019t wait to show off our best moves to classic straight jams by Ted Nugent, Anita Bryant, and Kid Rock. We\u2019ll bring our hot pants, tiaras, and body glitter\u2014apologies in advance if any rubs off on you on the dance floor. And if it does, don\u2019t worry, you\u2019ll still be straight\u2014probably. \u2666<\/p>\n
