Agree, that would be the better and more poignant expression.

I don't think straight people are quite there yet though.

Frasier has multiple plot lines about straight men being taken for gay based on stereotypes and a plot line about a gay man being mistaken for being straight.

And that was in the 90s.

Wasn't that the whole joke with Chandler on Friends? That he was being mistaken for gay.

And somehow it's one of the favourite shows of modern LGBTQ, especially Qs. Barely anyone calls that show 'problematic'.
