Because straight men are specifically who I'm talking to right now.
I do this sometimes. Sometimes I'm only talking to Black folk. Sometimes only men. Sometimes only straight men. Sometimes only football players. Sometimes only people that work in tech. Sometimes only people that work in tech and hire people. Etc etc.
I'm not talking about situational power in general. I'm talking about this specific kind.
If you want to make a more general thread, you're more than welcome to do that.
