Why is homosexuality wrong?

Well assuming say 10% are gay an 10% bi for each sex.

So for the total population

40% are straight for each sex
5% are gay or bi for each sex.

So a straight person has 45% of the population available as potential sex partners from a gender point of view.(I really would prefer the word sex instead of gender, but using sex in two ways in one sentence seems confusing).

A Bi person would have 55% of the population as potential sex partners.

The relative difference of these is about 20% more potential partners.

And yes this is really just being a math geek.

Until you subtract out the fraction of straight folks and gay folks that would reject you for playing both sides of the fence.

I would hope that if it was really dating, and not just having coffee some evening, that one would be so honest as tell them outright.

Well, I would like to know if knowing that someone has had bisexual encounters in the past, that that really CHANGED them as a person?

If someone's so willing to judge another person based on what sex of person you may have slept with in the past... well. Yeah, tell them, and then if they reject you, you know that they aren't worth your time.

There are many other ways you can judge someone. Past sexual experiences, outside of concerns for STDs, are generally bad ways.

Saying, 'Oh, by the way, I am bi-sexual' is many steps short of delving into ones entire sexual history.

If you think about it, it's really more like 10% extra chance. Because on the same-sex side, the majority of folks aren't available as potential dates.

A 10% bonus chance works for me...

Blast! You've uncovered our hidden Bisexual Agenda!
 
James Dean was bisexual.

I remember reading a quote of his to the effect that it doubled his chances for a date.

When asked whether he was gay, Dean replied: "Well, I'm certainly not going through life with one hand tied behind my back."

Well they are labeled according to who they are having sex with at the time, of course. And if more than one gender, they are polysexual. But the real people left out of the plot are the intersexed, hermaphroditic, and transgendered. I'm not sure how they can fit into the hetero or homo category. They are all over the animal kingdom including humans. Really. There are fish that change genders and lots of hermaphroditic worms and slugs and sea creatures and other things that can go either way-- hyena females have testes--they get exposed to very high androgen levels in the womb and could kick your ass (well, xenon's ass)

They also have penises and are known to wear slacks with high heels.

And if someone would reject you on that basis alone, all the more reason to thank FSM for avoiding the relationship.

But this is about chance of getting a date.

And why does what someone finds atractive really matter? It depends on their actions, and if both are interested in monogamy that one would consider monogamy with both sexes doesn't seem like something that is really important.

Of course someone who found something basic to your personality repugnant does not seem like an ideal match.

You're welcome.

And also, I say unto thee, fret not o'er who you bag, whether they are female or male, or males or females or a mix of both, or polysexuals (whatever that is) or whatever other category articulett tried to explain earlier, or some males dressed as females or vice versa, for thou art holy when thoust get off and I really don't give a good goddamn who you choose to do it with or why.

Few suggestions, pointers really: make sure everyone is over 18, make sure everyone consents to everything, make sure you don't take a substantial risk that you aren't ectastic about suffering the consequences for, and don't ever make the goat too angry.

YEA, I say unto thee also, don't spill your sexual history guts on the first date, because verily, you will freak people out. Thou shalt be safe, get tested, and answer questions honestly unless you feel like it's too much too soon and then you can lie a little. HEY! I'm a god. When I tell you it's okay, it's okay. And yea, when it is the right time and you let it all hang out, if that person runs from you, or judges you, or condemns you, or acts in any way like Xenon, you may tell that person to kiss your ass. You may also slap that person in the head, once, maybe twice and say, "JACKASS!" if you would like.

FSM does not truck with people who make others feel bad about who they are.

FSM has spoken.
 
I'm a god. I can be anything I wanna be. I take Zombie form 'round this time of year. Just for the brains, the fun, the rotting flesh... you know.
 
Funny thing is I have three male friends who all swore, for awhile, that they were bisexual. All three eventually decided they were in fact just heterosexual after they tried to have sex with a guy and found that they couldn't. I later determined that two of them declared themselves to be bisexual just to irritate their conservative parents and the third is just a habitual liar who craves attention.
