i'm bi, i like guys more usually but some girls really turn me on. i'm not a fucking poser. :zombiefuck:

I know.

I'm probably thinking more about a decade ago,
anyhow. I haven't met too many girls claiming
to be bi. Actually, I haven't met many PEOPLE
at all.

But, I have seen girls whom I think are likely straight,
kinda faking making out. So, I'd guess it's still there.

Huh?

But, it would be helpful if this
data were compared to other food
stuffs that one gets. I'm unimpressed,
if one is (as I suspect) likely to be encountering
this kind of crap in everything.

*Skips everything but the OP*

I think you're trying to look from the top down at something which is a bottom up phenomenon. In other words, it serves no real purpose, it's just something that happened (like a platypus). The question reminds me of one I asked on wrongplanet like a year ago about mental illness. I basically was asking what evolutionary benefits depression or schizophrenia might have, which every dumbass there completely jumped on me for as if it isn't something worth asking. I don't know. Maybe there is something. When shit doesn't fit right, then the organism has to rearrange itself until it does, and that makes the organism more resourceful I guess.

Fucking wrongplanet. Please don't jump on me here too.

Seems you're claiming opposing things here.
Arguing that it's pointless (which would be
I think the general view) but then complaining about
people doing that elsewhere.

I still feel that most phenomena which can maintain themselves
through selection have some purpose or value. Platypi certainly
are well adapted, if strange.

Just don't piss off those in the lovefest, and you'll be fine.

The difference is I'm not cutting you down for asking the question - tbh I'm much more apt to talk about the same issue as it relates to mental illness, rather than homosexuality, because homosexuality has the big fucking counterculture and pride movement, but people with mental illness are still under immense amounts of social pressure to not tell anyone.

What lovefest?

Fair enough. Thing is, I have a fair idea of the
why of mental illness, at least one which makes
sense. But homosexuality seems designed to
limit the species' size. Which is why soph's answer
makes me so damned happy.

Just pet the right people, and you'll
see.

Again, I'm of the opinion that there is a spectrum, and no one is purely anything.
:agreed:  But I'm not supposed to agree with you on anything, am I?   :P

You know I don't think of you that way.
I enjoy talking to you, so you can't be dumb.

But, I'm glad you recognize that you're my bitch.
