When someone offers you a dish, the polite way to decline it is,
"No thank you. It's not for me."
IT IS EXACTLY THE SAME when someone of a different orientation expresses interest in you but you can do better.
"I'm flattered but, no thank you."
Any other declination is just not sentient.

Brain Worms is taking a world leader and making it an object of ridicule.
Brutal but effective public health messaging from New York Public Health.
