Researching this paper is giving me the urge to write a separate little essay detailing, very thoroughly, why it's very irritating when people exclaim that you can't possibly be attracted to the same sex if you're attracted to someone of the opposite sex. Or have a relationship with one, or screw one. Come on, admit it. You're really straight,

Do I need to seriously maim someone? 'Cause I will. You might even call me eager.

*snerk* Not at this present moment. It's just something I've encountered on a semi-regular basis and my research reminded me of it.

Disclaimer! There is no twitch directed at people who are genuinely innocent in asking the question. There is twitch directed at people who assert what one must or must not be.

You're sure I don't need to maim anyone? *looks so disappointed* Just a little bit, maybe?

[kiviera]

You just want to maim, don't you?

I know what you mean - for some reason, even with all the progress that's been made with the acceptance of homosexuality, a -lot- of people have a hard time grasping bisexuality. I can't even count the number of times someone has said to me, "I don't get it. Just pick a side!"

I've had sex with women -and- men! -Clearly- this means that I am really a lesbian but I am in denial or I am really straight but I just want to have sex with anything with legs. It couldn't just be that I am legitimately attracted to both sexes, because that answer is too simple and also denies you the chance to try to psychoanalyze me.

I'm also pretty civil when someone says something, but the ignorance of the attitude annoys me a little.

Also, cheer up, you. : / Sounds like you've had it rough lately.

*exclaims* You can't possibly be attracted to the same sex if you're attracted to someone of the opposite sex! What lunacy is this?!

*tries not to laugh* am I irritating yet?
