What is the origin of the term "straggot" and how is it used?

"Straggot" is a slang term used to refer to a heterosexual person, often in queer or LGBTQ+ communities. It likely emerged in late 20th- to early 21st-century English as a playful or ironic blend of "straight" (heterosexual) and the suffix "-got," mimicking derogatory or reclaimed slurs. The term can be used humorously or teasingly, especially by LGBTQ+ speakers, and its offensiveness depends on context: it can be lightly mocking among insiders or mildly derogatory if used insultingly.

Examples
He got called a straggot for acting offended by everything.
