Heteronormativity is the idea that being "straight" is normal and everybody that isn't "straight" is dysfunctional for it. So "straight" wouldn't apply here. (The word straight is in quotations because in psychology it's generally agreed upon that only a very small portion of the population is 100% heterosexual, especially in cultures that don't have a historical disdain for homosexuality. Most psychologists and sociologists agree that sexuality is a spectrum with the vast majority of the population not perfectly on one side or the other)
