I mean, yeah, but the oxymoron is the point- A gay person who doesn't act it.
A questionable choice of phrasing? Absolutely.
A problematic trope because of that? No. Well, the trope is about an offensive stereotype, but that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with the trope as used.
Anyway, the title can't change unless there's misuse or consensus.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessNoted that while typing Straight Gay, i wrote Gay Straight which was Camp Straight. I don't know how many people mess up when writing it.
Okay, that's a good reason to do a wick check for both tropes.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessGoing to Related shows zero wicks on Gay Straight so there's no issues there.
It's been talked about in TRS but consensus is to keep it as is.
Straight Gay just sound Oxymoronic when the trope itself is about having non stereotypical gay traits. And the picture itself doesn't do a good job as well.
