    Eh it’s playing on that usage, but the tongue is firmly in the cheek enough that it’s obviously not meant in a non-ironic way. As a queer guy I could see playing with the phrase that way, much like how my friends call each other the F word, and people wear “he/him/daddy” shirts at Pride, and all sorts of other ways we can make fun of ourselves and not take ourselves dead serious 100% of the time, which turns people off.
