Heteronormative Crusader/Playing With

"Bob: No weird positions! No kinks! No items! Fox only! Final Destination!"
 * Basic Trope: Someone who sees sexuality in black-and-white terms.
 * Played Straight: Bob frowns upon homosexuality, masturbation and other "deviant" activities.
 * Exaggerated: The above-mentioned "deviant" activities include sex in positions other than missionary and for purposes other than reproduction, and allowing his wife Alice to work outside the home. He not only protests a bill that would allow same-sex marriage, but leads the protest. He may also get violent with those who think differently than him.
 * Justified: Bob has deep-seated issues, such as past sexual abuse, that cause him to think this way.
 * Inverted: Bob believes that heterosexual, reproductive sex between a married couple, and traditional gender roles are deviant and wrong.
 * Straw Feminist
 * Ethical Slut
 * Bob believes that failing to fight against/defy The Man and his 'constrictive sexual morality' -- meaning doing anything that resembles heterosexual, reproductive sex -- means you are on the side of The Man. He does not believe in taking a third option, and might even be rather against bisexuality.
 * Subverted: Bob rails on Charlie and Donald for acting like a bunch of "mincing queers" -- they later find out it was a Stop Being Stereotypical speech, and Bob is a Straight Gay.
 * Or Bob believes that this activity is wrong, but he also believes in letting people act as they want without harassing them.
 * Or Bob turns out to be The Fettered in his beliefs and labeled as a Crusader only because of the opposite side's attitudes towards those of his beliefs due to a case of He Who Fights Monsters.
 * Double Subverted: ...who stubbornly insists that having sex with men doesn't make him gay.
 * ...Or so he tells himself. In actuality, he's a menacing bigot.
 * Parodied: Bob acts less as a Moral Guardian and more like a Stop Having Fun Guy...


 * Deconstructed: Bob may be feeling insecure about his own sexuality, and puts others down (or hurts them) to make himself feel better. This may stem from any number of things, including (but not limited to) his culture and his religion.
 * Alternatively, Bob has religious beliefs that make him believe homosexuality to be bad but also influence him to "hate the sin but love the sinner". He believe that there is an "the gay agenda" that hurt people by corrupting them into gayness, but that it's best not to target the individuals, just the behavior, but to do it as ethically as possible. Unless he live in a setting where there actually is an evil gay conspiracy, he's a Troubled Sympathetic Bigot.
 * Lampshaded: "Bob has some... issues about gay men. Makes you wonder, doesn't it?"
 * Averted: Bob never discusses his views on sexuality.
 * Enforced: It's an Author Tract about sexuality.
 * Invoked: Bob learns in religion class that anything other than a married male-female couple having sex for reproductive purposes is wrong and that he need to fight to "protect" marriage, etc.
 * Alternatively, Alice give a little speech about the destructiveness of heteronormativity and discrimination, maybe accusing Bob of being a bigot while she's at it.
 * Defied: Bob makes an active effort to be open-minded about sexuality, gender roles, etc.
 * Discussed: "Bob, what's with hating the gays?" "It's a disease, Alice. Those filthy sodomites are diseased, and I'm trying to persuade them to seek a cure for their illness."
 * Conversed: "OK, so this character hates gays. And bisexuals. And bondage. And masturbation." "Is there any sexual contact he likes?" "Well, maybe the kind within religiously-recognized heterosexual marriage for the purpose of reproduction, but only if it's in the missionary position."
 * Played For Laughs: Bob is getting into Lawful Stupid territory.
 * Played For Drama: Bob kills someone who he feels is "deviant. Or rapes her: A so-called "curative rape" based on the theory that it will make her stop being a lesbian or masochist or whatever.
