About 95% straight to 5% bi-curious, but I voted straight as i'm not curious enough to vote the other way.

You know what I like to tell people that make fun of gays? I always say "You can never be anything other than bisexual, because you might like women now, but you never know when you might change. So until you're on your death bed, don't go making fun of something you might become."

Gets em sometimes


edit: oh and I answered straight... well because that's what I'm attracted to I guess

@Theorist: That's actually really good; I might use that sometime.

Seems redundant to be, because it changes the definition. The widely-accepted definition of bisexual is someone who is actively attracted to both. Saying someone is just because they may be at some undetermined future point is like saying everyone is tall because they might become tall at some point.

I agree, but that doesn't mean it can't be effective in combatting gay-bashing straight people.

Human No More 11-16-2011 04:16 AM

Not really - it avoids the real issue. It's a bit like implying that anyone who dislikes gay people is secretly gay - some very well might be and indeed, have in a few cases turned out to be, but it isn't true for everyone, and some people have other problems that can cause such opinions, while implying things about them really just pushes real problems (and therefore their solutions) under the carpet.

You're probably right, as always.

About five years ago, I had a really gay year. My mom flipped :( She always seemed okay with gays until she knew that I might be one.

Moco knows who the boy I like is :3

Straight.

I don't agree with the choice of life that LGBT people choose, but I think they shouldn't be deprived of the right to make their decision. I have nothing against LGBT people, but I admit that they are easy to make fun of. Of course, I don't have any mean or hurtful intentions when I joke around.

dstroudswan 11-16-2011 12:44 PM

As long as the jokes aren't hurtful, I think we're pretty good sports.

And we don't choose to be LGBT; it's something we just are. We don't get to choose.

It was a joke, as in I was implying that some people here possibly aren't good sports when it comes to joking around.

dstroudswan 11-16-2011 01:47 PM

Ah, okay.
