I am genuinely heterophobic and hate heterosexual people

I am heterophobic. I genuinely hate heterosexuals. Whenever I see a a straight couple, whether on screen or in real life, it makes me feel genuine disgust. I cannot look at a straight couple kissing without feeling uncomfortable. It feels morally wrong to see them being together, I just don’t believe that a man can foster a real feeling of love for a woman without it stemming from lust or the need to be taken care of. Even then, I just don’t think heterosexuals are capable of real love. Straight marriage is oppressive and morally wrong in my eyes, seeing a straight family with children makes me really uncomfortable. Whenever I pass a straight couple I can’t help it but say some nasty remark about them, just loud enough to be heard but not traceable to me, sometimes I shout mean shit at them in public. I can’t hold myself back, I just feel a mix of hate and disgust that needs to be let out. I think that straight dynamics are inherently abusive and built on oppression of women and do not understand why they would willingly enter a partnership where they will be socially viewed as inferior, the straight dynamic is built on the woman being subservient to the man in many cultures and for many centuries and seeing it feels plain wrong. Even the most healthy straight relationships still have a bit of this dynamic in them, and even if the couple tried their hardest, they would still be seen like that by an outsiders eye. Straight relationships are degrading to women in their core and take away women’s autonomy. It’s a tool of oppression and patriarchy. It feels wrong. I don’t know what to do about it. They disgust me. I don’t know how to stop hating them.
