    ooooh.... I got an extremely high rating on the Channel4 test too....

    Oh well. Gotta go get my tips frosted and buy this delightful new designer coffee!
    Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
    -Richard Dawkins

        Oh by the way, I knew I'd be going too far when I was considering getting blonde highlights That would just be flagrant advertising.

          /me just got blonde highlights in again.

          Actually it's not so much a "gay" thing anymore, tons of guys have them here (straight or gay).

              Not so over here in Britain. For a while I was tempted...but I would just look SO stupid. Even more so.

                Lorizael,

                I suggest talking with somebody supportive and be decisive about it.

                I, was probably one of the most confused individuals from some time and am still questioning myself... my social life is okay but my social skills are shot to ****... I am a short-fused and sometimes dictator-like after being corrupted absolutely by a game called Tropico when being given a position of power. I had a girlfriend like six months ago but my sexuality was in question was quite some time and sometimes it still is, I usually think about girls though...

                Enough of my own personal crap and I will suggest this: I would suggest talking to somebody supportive and accepting. Even if you are not gay or bi, you might be confused and a person like this can help you out if you are overwhelmed.

                TheSpark by the way said I was 10% gay... but I sometimes question myself.... hmm....
                For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

                    With women, I've noticed a bit of a trend. I've a few friends who start out straight- then after a few typically crap early relationships they go lesbian. Then, at about 30 when the hormones start screaming they go straight again and have a family.

                    That leaves me wondering if bisexuality goes in phases. Maybe in 10-15 years time I'll see them go lesbian again.

                      RJ - That seems actually not too uncommon with lesbians.

                        are they really lesbians (I mean on a deeper level, not the surface level)?

                          Depends on how you define "lesbian."

                            one based upon actions (whatever you are doing at the time, purely practical)

                            the other based upon internal self-identity/genetics

                            I was refering to the second (hopefully yuo understand me, I did not go into detail on my definitions)

                              Hard to say. Sexuality isn't a concrete issue, it's pretty nebulous. Perhaps more so for women than men, too.

                                I don't really think so

                                I think that environment just does a better job of screwing up women's sexual identity than it does men's (or it appears that way, I now figure that men are generally much more confused about their sexual identity than they usually let on)
