Bi/Gay/whatever
I am straight. I have no interest in men whatsoever.
However, I do listen to the Savage Love podcast by sex advice columnist Dan Savage. Dan is gay.
He gets calls from all sexualities, and even just a few listens will clue you in that there is a WIDE range of sexuality out there.
It's not gay/straight. It's not gay/bi/straight.
It's a vast scope.
There's straight.
There's straight identified who go after one guy one time.
There's straight identified who are occasionally interested in d*#k so they hire transexuals - 99% of their clientelle are straight guys. Gay guys aren't interested in a woman with a penis.
There's straight identified who occasionally want to be on the receiving end.
There's bi identified who've only ever dated women.
There's bi identified who will only hook up with guys during three ways.
There's bi identified who split their time 50/50
There's gay identified who have a wife and kids.
There's gay identified who are occasionally interested in very manly women.
On and on and on...
Human sexuality is at best a gray scale.

Re: Bi/Gay/whatever
and there's not-straight... We'll call that "Gay."
So there ya go... Straight and Gay.
* /me removes toungue from cheek
By those standards 75% of the women under 30 in American are "gay". Find me one who's NEVER kissed another girl?

Re: Bi/Gay/whatever
No, its white (striaght) and not-white (gay). There's just a whole grey scale of gayness going on
So, you're either white (from England or Norway) or black (from Italy or Africa)
You're either tall (6'0" or above) or short (5'11" or below).
You're either rich ($100,000 or more) or poor ($99,999 or less).
You're either old (40 or more) or young (39 years 364 days or less).
You're either Christian (Greek Orthodox church) or Pagan (Roman Catholic, Methodist, Hindu, Jedi, etc)

Didn't you accuse me of comparing apples and oranges in your previous post?
Brief aside - I HATE THIS EXPRESSION.
People say "comparing apples and oranges" meaning two things which have nothing in common.
Round, seeded, from trees, edible, domesticated crops, roughly the same size...
Apples and oranges have a LOT in common.
It should be "comparing apples and aircraft carriers" or "comparing oranges and neutrinos" or "comparing apples and oranges to darkmatter"

Did you hear Schwarzenegger supports legalization? I still don't think it's happening quite yet, but it's getting closer. Helped when the Republicans saw how much tax revenue they were missing out on
Not to mention the fact California's ~90,000 inmates are costing us something like $30,000 a year.
If you just take the 3,000 or so who are serving for ONLY marijuna possession and nothing else, that's $90,000,000.
With a budget deficit in the 6 BILLION dollar range, I don't think we need to blow nearly $100 million keeping harmless stoners locked up.
