    What can I do as a straight ally?

    So far, I've been telling people in real life what is going on.

    Most straights don't realize how crazy it is, unless they're online.

    So flipping AWFUL!

    I just applied (and was accepted) to volunteer at an LGBT organization to help the LGBs in my area, and to hopefully passively change minds. Find some fence sitters and help steer them away from the homophobic sexists gendie stuff. See how it goes.

    Good luck!! Stay safe. You might find some awesome people there, but also might find some people who are very hostile to same-sex attracted people...
