I don't blame them for responding petty. Steam has some of the most hostile and bigoted people out there. Something like this is a great way to push back against them while being funny and highlighting the absurdity of their request.
Which it so is, people don't need a straight pride flag or straight pride label, they're just trying to push back against LGBTQ acceptance.

There's a couple actually. The most popular designs usually consist of just black and white horizontal stripes, usually with male and female symbols intertwined. There's one that's black and white, with a rainbow pyramid overlayed on top.
