Your piece here really opened my eyes and got me thinking about this subject in a new way. I'd never really considered the presence of cisgender heterosexual people (particularly cisgender heterosexual men) who visibly and openly defy heterosexist gender norms.

But, upon reflection, I see the value in embracing them just as you encourage us (society) to, in this article. It's ultimately a net-positive for everyone -- except for those who are irreparably steeped in their own bigotry.
