Bored. And being bored, I shall be random.

eowyn_rain posted some quiz results - Dating Strengths and Weaknesses. I thought it looked cute, so I clicked to take it for some lols... and was immediately put off by the first question.
I am best-described as a: Heterosexual Male, Heterosexual Female, Gay Male, Gay Female.
WTF? No Bisexual option? Pardonez moi? From a quiz-creator standpoint I can see how that could be confusing, but it's just another reminder of how bisexuals get shoved off the map and misclassified. Hell, officially there's a ton of different "types" of bisexual, and most of them can be summed up as "Homo/Hetero-sexual who behaves in _______ manner".
Behavior =/= Orientation. And gender =/= sex, so stop confusing those too. There's a
reason pre-op transgendered male-to-female who are attracted to men are straight.
GRRRRR.
