NEW STUDY FINDS THAT BISEXUALITY IS A 'DISTINCT ORIENTATION' IN WOMEN

"Bisexuality, defined as experiencing attraction to other adults, regardless of gender, has often been described by mono-sexual people (i.e., heterosexuals, gays and lesbians) as mysterious and difficult to understand. This is because mono-sexual people take gender into account when assessing attraction; therefore, it can be challenging to imagine that there is a whole world of people out there who don't do the same.

Heck no.  Most people need to be dragged to the watering trough of knowledge.

Good point... Its a tough one when it somes to sexual orientation.

Cool thing is though I dont know of anyone who hates gays or lesbians or bisexual people.  In fact it is almost the cool thing for woman to be.

It has reached a great point in acceptance at least in my local area, but dont get me wrong I know it is still discriminated against.

I am happy for these people and hope that one day people will feel the same towards T issues.

We are fighting in most places to even get added to GLB.
