Straight ally

A straight ally, also known as a cisgender heterosexual ally (sometimes abbreviated as a cishet ally), heterosexual ally, or cis ally (often simply called an ally), is a heterosexual and cisgender person who supports equal civil rights, gender equality, and LGBTQ+ social movements. Straight transgender people are not considered allies in this sense, as they are members of the LGBTQ+ community themselves.
