I'm not going to down vote you, but my question (about women) was gender neutral and innocent.

BTW: My whole name is Christopher Bennet.

Nor does it specifically indicate heterosexual :)

... but the tone is a better match for a young straight man.

A gay guy can still "know about women" (a phrase which to me is a dog whistle anyway). And the assumption based on tone is what I was trying to point out.
