Is it weird to make a "historians erase gay people in history" joke by erasing where some historian wrote "same sex couple" and changing it to "roommates"?

I know the joke, but I really want to know what was the original term there?

"same-sex couple"

No problem. Not much of a "hmm" with the actual words though lol
