particularly viral video tagged with the trend’s “#comphet” hashtag, a user checklists “common signs of compulsory heterosexuality.” These include: “Liking guys until they like you back,” “only liking fictional men and celebrities,” “kissing your girlfriends when you were younger to ‘practice for guys,’” “feeling bored when intimate with guys” and, of course, “feeling nauseous when intimate with guys.” The tag #comphet has racked up over 61 million views on the social media platform, with videos generally preaching the positive points of being bisexual.
The viral video trend also seems to raise awareness about how many women think they are heterosexual — but in actuality are just falling prey to the pressures of a patriarchal society.
