"Heterosexual vibes? don?t simply mean ?lots of straight people?. It can be a feeling in the air, an aesthetic or a set of priorities built around a certain life path"

ahh..the 'feeling in the air'....Brrr....defintely feels a bit 'gay' out there this morning, make sure you take a jumper when you go out....

IN the case of this aricle, you could probably swap the word "heterosexual"....for 'whiteness' or 'maleness' or "cisgender'....and the article wouldnt miss a beat as some vague tribute to the gods of diversity, where the sole purpose of the article seems to be to puff up the authours sense of their own virtue.....
