I am mostly? straight, and the degree to which this kind of extremely hostile relationship is normalized has always just been completely baffling to me.
I've known plenty of LGBTQ+ people, and its still the same... its not just straight people in my experience.
I've known a few people that actually had loving relationships, but the vast, vast majority of people I've known are in or have been in extremely co-dependent, emotionally / physically / financially abusive, 80% of diaglogue between partners is insults played off as 'playful', one or both partners are obvious narcissicsts, passive-aggressive, make wildly stupid and irresponsible decisions...
(what I mean by mostly? straight is that I don't know a word for being masculine presenting myself, and being attracted to my preffered type of feminine presenting people, regardless of their current or original biological sex.)
