Once this idiot I knew from high school 17 years ago said “ it’s because your a CIS White male” in reference to a political argument. She used it like a derogatory name
I figured it's slang because lord knows vocabulary is poor these day and many people would get heterosexual mixed up with homosexual.
Personally I would never us it or "straight" either. Straight can mean too many things. Jesus freaks were called "straight edges" in the last generation.

I like "heterosexual" myself.
I agree, and still think "homosexual" is better than "gay."
I've never heard this term being widely used. Outside of "gender studies" bubbles of academia, who even uses this?
Virtually no one.
I travel in all types of circles and probably have never heard it in conversation...just as either jokes or news stories or some meme.
