I mean that's a bit of a reach there but seriously. Heteronormativity and similarly themed gender/racial jargon aren't to be taken lightly. I call people out on that **** offline too because, gee... wouldn't it be nice to live in a world devoid of bigotry?
The ideas behind jargon like that are fine and dandy, but the attitude behind their use is generally insufferable. I'd rather be moderately insensitive than a miserable bastard nobody else wants to be around for fear of a boring, angry lecture.
