AFD request after PROD removal[edit]

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Please bring this to AFD this... as IP addresses cannot open AFDs. The article is using limited sourcing, that does not show long-term notability, and therefore is not in compliance with WP:NOTNEO. This seems appropriate for urbandictionary, not here. Thank you. 2601:282:B01:A696:A044:6078:BF4E:5A41 (talk) 11:21, 12 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've nominated it for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Straight man cancer for you; to be clear, I'm completely neutral on this matter. If you have any additional comments to add, please do so there. Let me know if you need anything else!--SkyGazer 512 ^{Oh no, what did I do this time?} 12:59, 12 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Misuse of the word "causes"[edit]

I think the word "causes" here is misused. I think that these examples of discrimination weren't "caused" but chosen (i.e. getting hurt is not a choice, hitting back is, which I think is what calling a person "straight man cancer" is, a choice, not "caused").

How about changing "causes" to ideology..? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wallby (talk • contribs) 15:28, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think that "comparible" is that you e.g. won't find the word "causes" on the page for Nigger Wallby (talk) 15:33, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
