Here’s what OP assumed you knew they meant to say:

TAYLOR SWIFT IS HETEROSEXUAL

just in case it wasn’t fucking clear

It’s so obvious too. Hetero: the other or opposite. Sexual: relating to sexuality. She’s the opposite of sexual. Heterosexuals are often aromantic but not always, which may be the origin of their confusion.

I thought I was being clever with the last bit, too. After a year, I still can’t figure out whether Lemmy hates wordplay or doesn’t understand it.
