A similar concept to Blackfishing, gayfishing is when a straight or straight-passing male appropriates gay culture to appear more edgy or cool. An example of this is men who paint their nails (a color other than black) and get praise, whereas if a gay male did the same thing they would get slurs thrown at them.
It's insane how much Bad Bunny has been gayfishing and these NPCs just eat it up.
