There is no such thing as a bisexual guy. There's straight guys, gay guys, and gay guys that don't get sick at the sight of a vagina.

"intersex"

A newer term with less negative connotations than hermaphrodite.

I learned the term recently when that 18 y/o girl from south africa won some medals. But then she was challenged on it on accusations that she was born intersexed (possible internal undeveloped testes) although she was raised and experienced life as a girl. I never heard what happened in the end, other than she was tormented, even by news media, to the point of being on a suicide watch (with lots of ppl saying she should never be allowed to compete in sports on a womens or a mens team.)

so what are you lewisje? I just wonder because the gay/lesbian/trans stuff seems to be something you concern yourself greatly with.

9/22/2010 12:28:03 AM

don't think I've ever met an asexual

I guess there would be some discrimination...I would imagine that the same people who would make fun of gay guys, would also make fun of guys who don't like chicks

^that's known as a "fetish" or possibly a paraphilia rather than a sexual orientation

a cis-man who if his repressions were finally released would frequently be mistaken for gay because of his mannerisms

wtf... that's stupid.

i don't see how that term tells us your sexual orientation. it just means "i am comfortable having a dick because i feel like a man."

9/22/2010 2:33:39 PM

being mistaken as gay can't be as terrible as acting like someone you're not

9/22/2010 2:35:49 PM

all i can do is roll my eyes at that fucking 25 bigoted things to say list.

goddamn these fucking people need to grow a little skin

OH NO SOMEONE SAID SOMETHING MEAN

the reason people can't stand to be around you people of non mainstream sexuality is because of your goddamn victim mentality and constant fucking whining. Shut the fuck up. The reality is that most people can give two shits and a fuck who you want to fuck until you start throwing it in their faces.

I realize neither of the pix I posted mentioned anything about gender identity, but that's what the "T" in LGBT is all about; "cis-" is a short way to say "not trans-"

Also I earlier mentioned indirectly my sexual orientation: I'm not gay and I'm not asexual, I am attracted to women.
However, I'm also not a macho-macho man, like on this test I score a 3 on a 0-10 scale of male effeminacy calibrated with gay men in mind (basically 1 means "indistinguishable from the typical straight guy" and actually IIRC would describe most gay men, while 0 is reserved for the manliest men who ever manned): http://www.straightacting.com/

"LEVEL 3 -- MOSTLY STRAIGHT ACTING You lead a normal everyday life and it's 'no questions asked' as people just assume you are straight. Every once and awhile a very aware person might notice something that causes them to think 'fem' but it's a fleeting thought because you turn around and surprise them with more masculine traits before they even have time to fully analyze the last one."

9/23/2010 1:11:47 AM

haha, I got a 3 too

9/23/2010 1:17:29 AM

I scored a 6

it says most people assume I am gay

9/23/2010 2:13:25 AM

I'm guessing you like flowers, bubble baths, and pedicures, own music by both Madonna and Lady Gaga, and love to dress up when costumes are called for.

It would be interesting to see how the answer choices are related to the final score.

9/23/2010 2:17:52 AM

lol. i got a 3, but uhh i'm not gay.. THAT I KNOW OF

I got a 2 on that quiz, but that quiz was designed by someone with no logical ability.

In some questions more than one answer should have been able to be selected, but had radio buttons, and vice versa.

"Thanks for answering all the questions. Here is your result. Levels Explanation for the Guy Quiz LEVEL 0 -- THE ULTIMATE IN STRAIGHT ACTING There is no more straight acting than you. Not one person on the planet would guess you sleep with men. You might want to check to see if you shouldn't be out wrestling with wild animals in the wilderness or jumping out of airplanes right now. You are the ultimate in masculinity and acting in a straight manner in which most heterosexual men don't even achieve."

hey i got an idea:

instead of 'cisgendered' why dont we just say 'normal'?

that way people don't have to look shit up every time you talk about the obvious.

9/25/2010 2:12:55 AM

that is so heteronormatively hegemonic of you

I guess that also means we should do away with "white" and "christian" and "heterosexual" and even "male"
"conservative" is another good candidate because we all know they're only okay with the rights of the "normal"

and anyway even you can realize that "normal" is not a good word to describe me


With that said this shit is pretty cool: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJUFQlUmoGI
and on a related note: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5upkuwTBwFQ
I realize this guy is a drag queen rather than a transwoman but this stuff still justifies the "T" ITT
also it's not always that garish: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b8/Vanessatv.jpg

9/25/2010 2:54:04 AM

right. how clever of you. well, let me toss out some global population numbers:

gay/bi 5%
white 15%
christian 30%
male 50%
transgender/transsexual 0.01%


it's like on sesame street, when "one of these things, doesn't belong here"

seriously, look, i'm sorry something went awry for you trans-folk during
early embryonic development. and i'm all for a constitutionally-protected status
if you want.

but don't force some Latin-derived clinical terminology on the 99.99% of the
population who are not abnormal, just because you're bitter or whatever.

the important thing about privilege is that you can hide that status

you only need words for the "other"

also try thinking of the corresponding figures for the USA because to a typical american the rest of the world doesn't matter
also numerical majorities aren't that important, like in America women are the slight majority but men hold a disproportionate share of power

[Edited on September 25, 2010 at 4:28 AM. Reason : PS I agree with your global figures for gay/bi and trans but IIRC more like 33% are christian

privilege? really? privilege?? my goodness, you are bitter, aren't you.
there's no privilege. no one hands me shit just because i'm not gender-confused.

furthermore, the "other" is a medical diagnosis. it's typically called a chromosomal disorder.
i'm not here to oppress you, but don't force me to wear one of your labels

"while you have to name all the different groups in a plurality, abnormal outliers do not re-define the baseline"

there's the thing. identifying trans people as "abnormal" instead of "different." it wasn't very long ago when people were saying "why is there 'straight'? there's faggots and normals - no need for another term"
