It was a word that came about to define heterosexual behaviour. Its quite recent, a few hundred years ago there was no need to say your preference because you were assumed to be heterosexual, anything else was either ignored or shunned.

The word does have some bigotry origins, straight infers that anything else is "bent" and therefore unnatural. straight being assumed something's natural state for which "bent" is a physical change. However, this seems to have faded somewhat and usually isn't intended in an offensive way.

I think it's being physically attracted to someone of the opposite gender then you. I mean you can be straight and be curious about sex with another woman, try it, then still be straight. It would be like riding a bike that's blue for a change just because you were curious how different it was. I know that may sound confussing, but only you can label what your sexual orientation is. To be gay, I honestly believe that it must be possible for you to pursue a meaningful relationship with someone of the same sex. Just having sex with someone of the same gender just to try it or just for fun doesn't make you gay. You'd have to see it as something more than just sex.

The meaning of 'straight' is the type of path that follows when two points in an n-dimensional space are joined such that this minimizes the hyper-displacement.

A person who does not engage in sexual acts with the opposite sex. I prefer to use the term breeder.
