Well since there's no single word to mean "Straight male" and the term "Straight male" seems awkward to me, mostly because I only really hear it in negative contexts, Like when prople say "Stright Male" they tent to be using it to talk about why said stright male is bad and not worthy of praise... so I'd have probably picked a different term. Maybe something like:

"Who's a good dude with excellent taste?

Who is??

Is You!

Thas a good bro! Yous has very good taste!"

Actually! Thinking about this I have an example of something very similar to this fairly recently

On discussing BNHA, and finding out that the person I was talking to - who I did not know the gender of - ships uraraka x deku and is actively against uraraka x bakugou, I responded with

"Well done! For this act of moral superiority I will not, when the time comes, brick you to death.

You will be allows to live, on the understanding that when that time does indeed come, you will help me eradicate the Kacchako scum from the face of this earth."

uraraka x bakugou shippers get the brick, by the way. BOOM, Right in the back of the head.

So genitalia changes how you talk to people.

"How I talk to people" as in tone and intent and meaning of what i am expressing? All the important factors? No not in the slightest

"How I talk to people" in the clinical accuracy of the words I choose? yes. I would not call a woman "My good man" and would not call a man "My good Woman" Everything else stays as close as language allows.

Using this to say "You talk to women differently than you talk to men" would be technically accurate, but a weaselly distinction and lets be honest pretty disingenuous.

Contextualize it however you want that you’d use two different terms of camaraderie that don’t address sexuality directly when talking to a man is part of why it came off as weird that you were headpatting secret OP’s lesbianess and not OP directly.

Oh, I see, you're talking about the difference between "Dude / Bro" and "Lesbian"

Fair enough but that's just a lack of information. If there was a a nice word for "Straight male" I'd have used that, as it is all I have it the knwledge that they're male, so I went with "Dude and Bro" they are not terms of camaraderie. I used to call dethtoll "Dude and Bro". If for example I was talking about... soldatsasha's taste in women, I would probably use terms like ""Who's a good Soldier boy" or "Who's the Russian with the great taste in women?! Who is it?". If I was someone else talking to Wako, I'd have used "There's a good Troll! Well done on the Taste in women, you little troublemaker". I know the OP was a lesbian, so I used lesbian.

You really are reading way way too much into it.
