Examples of heterosexual in a Sentence

1. Robert Dumond:

   To, in any way, suggest that a person would go in as a heterosexual and then somehow become a homosexual as a result, that's simply preposterous. There's no evidence to support that.

2. Marguerite Duras:

   Before they're plumbers or writers or taxi drivers or unemployed or journalists, before everything else, men are men. Whether heterosexual or homosexual. The only difference is that some of them remind you of it as soon as you meet them, and others wait for a little while.

3. Mark Ronson:

   It sounds like I went on a TV show to be, like,' Guys, I have some big news !' and the fact that I would go on and sort of declare Mark Ronson -- like, as a heterosexual white male -- part of any marginalized community was terrifying to me, or just embarrassing.

4. Matthew Oware:

   There's still that general sentiment that this type of rapper, a gay, male rapper, isn't representative of masculinity, what Lil Nas X is doing by upping the ante is no different than what we see a stereotypical, heterosexual rapper do by upping the ante in Lil Nas X lyrics.

5. Clea DuVall:

   It's a very heterosexual genre and to be able to have all the same feelings and see a story that feels familiar, that you connect with, but that also has two women at the center, it shouldn't seem that radical, but it kind of is. I really wanted the movie to feel accessible to all audiences.
