Straight people have never suffered injustices for being straight, they've never had to deal with discrimination on the grounds of their sexuality, they've never had their rights infringed because they are straight.

It's always going to be an emotionally charged topic because Homophobia is a real and present problem whilst Heterophobia is a concept that doesn't really apply to the real world.
Which Zone or Sector is that?

I assume you mean Central London its all OK
