My bisexuality is often called foul on because I 'don't show enough gay'.
I just shrug it off and pretend to come onto them, since it's mainly guys who bring it up. They tend to shut up after that.
Just because I don't go around flaunting my sexuality doesn't mean I 'aint what I am.

Not surprising... I have some friends whom many people assume can't be lesbians because they have long hair...

I was once with one of my close friends and her girlfriend when someone told them to stop pretending to be lesbians and just making out for attention...
It is amazingly sad, especially when it's that direct.
I'm on a course at the moment (a somewhat useless one, but oh well, it keeps the job centre happy) and on the first day, I learned exactly who were the tools from whoever agreed with this statement from the guy sitting next to me:
"Gay people are just fething weird and unnatural."
How people can outright state something so disgustingly insulting and untrue with the confidence that he did, and have others openly agree with it, eludes me.

It's amazing what people will believe, stupid or not.

I mean I'm a wargamer, a DND player, a DH player, a Vampire:The Masquerade roleplayer, I play video games, and I'm a chemistry major-- I'm weird.
It's fun being weird.

How is any of that weird? This isn't the 80's after all.
Where I live, it's still the 50's. It's amazing how backwards some places can still be.
There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

On second thoughts, comments pulled - Even I have limits.

Unless you're doing it into the wind, then it doesn't particularly matter.

Isn't this about time for a unique snowflake comment of some sort?

More seriously, these kinds of statements are aggravating.
I liked the fact that because I didn't have a girlfriend in highschool the automatic assumption was that I was a homosexual and it doesn't help when you ask a girl out and she thinks that you are a homosexual.

In college, still haven't.
Nobody is sure what I am.

I hear that quite a bit from americans to be honest (that they haven't had a girlfriend and just finished highschool or are in college), maybe it's just my town being somewhat promiscuous but when I was in secondary school (ages 11 to 16) literally EVERYONE had a girlfriend or boyfriend at some point during that period.
Is is just the norm in america to start having boyfriends/girlfriends and getting laid much later than over here?

No. Well, maybe among wargaming Americans, but not the general population.
My best friend lost her virginity at 12, a number of girls in my upper middle class public school had kids at 15-16, and I would guess that about 30-40% of girls had become sexually active before high school.

Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.

Meh, there's a huge amount of social pressure to start as early as humanly possible.
I just don't care.
