"Heterosexual Man" is a song by Canadian rock band Odds. It was released in 1993 as the lead single from the band's second album, Bedbugs. The song reached No. 1 on the RPM Canadian Content chart.[1] It was also the band's first song to receive radio airplay in the United States, peaking at No. 44 on the Radio & Records Album-oriented rock chart.[2] The song was featured in the 1995 film, Jury Duty.

Music video

The song's music video features the band members performing in drag, with Dave Foley, Kevin McDonald and Mark McKinney from The Kids in the Hall, themselves often noted for drag performances, as stereotypically macho jocks in the audience until Foley inexplicably turns into a woman.[3]
