I really don’t see a problem unless you equate being gay with being bad or undesirable in some way. Who’s reading an article about butt plugs and only feels shame in their interest when gay people are brought up?
It doesn’t have to be seen as bad for it to be undesirable. I’m straight, but I have plenty of gay friends and hold no ill-will towards any sexuality. I’m not trying to become gay though, so it isn’t desired or, to use another word, it’s undesirable.
I also don’t really have any interest in buying a butt plug, at least for myself. Equating it as being gay makes it sound like it’s something I shouldn’t want, which there’s no reason for that to be true. Even though I don’t want it, there’s no reason I shouldn’t want it.
