I know there are definitely a few gay members here on dakka, not sure of the other three.

Also not sure why it matters, and not sure why we need a thread on it, and not sure why, if we do need a thread on it, it would be in general discussion and not Off Topic.

You can't be BOTH gay AND bisexual.

And while you can technically be gay and lesbian at the same time, in this context "gay" refers to homosexual men and lesbian refers to homosexual women, and you can't really be both.

Unless you are the 5th gender and happen to be bisexual, which is as rare as seeing a unicorn feth a dragon.

For someone who doesn't know why it matters, you appear to have spent an awful lot of time seeking to define it.

Sociology classes require one to understand the true nature of gender, sex, and sexuality.

As to thinking it doesn't matter, I merely meant in the context of our little community, as I don't see gender or sexuality as being relevant to war gaming.

Unless a hot naked lesbian is playing against me while making out with her girlfriend. Then it's relevant.

Leave it to me to use logic to destroy a joke.

My bad. Sarcasm and tone don't translate well on type.

Someone mention me and a dragon? I know a Bi female gamer that plays GK and eldar. This hobby is bad enough on regular geeks attractive females are beyond rare, then add bi or lesbian on top of that and you can watch geek dudes headz explode as they try to comprehend it. Imagine how much grief most gamers give each other and think about why a Gaymer does not tell you his sexuality.

On DakkaDakka we like rejoicing in the fact that we all enjoy playing with plastic soliders, I dont see how it is at all appropriate to bring up sexual orientation in this context.

I actually think it would be fun to have a gaymer friend who always went on about how "fabulous" my armies looked.

As for a lesbian friend, well then we could agree on the hotness rating of random women on the street.

Sounds fun.

As an aside, I'm totally up for doing it day after day

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

XX XY XXY XXX and I think XYY

Male(penis, testes)
Female(vagina, ovaries, breasts)
Hermaphrodite with male genitalia(often have ovaries in place of testes)
Hermaphrodite with female genitalia(having vulva, but testes instead of ovaries, many cases also having breasts)
and true Hermaphrodite http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_hermaphroditism in which both ovarian and testicular tissues are present. iirc this is the rarest case

Those are the 5 genders.

There are only 2 sexes, male and female. Regardless of gender, pretty much everyone identifies as either male or female. Can't recall if there are people who don't identify as either, would be rather rare if there were.

Why are you asking? There are bound to be in any community.. Thus dakka will have plenty, but what's the point in the thread?!

We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.

Well most of the other threads in OT seem to be people laughing at victims of violence and spamming pictures of weiner dogs.
In such a context finding out if there are any lgbt gamers seems positively civil.

I like to imagine the Emperor kills so many Orks that he ends up half buried beneath a pile of corpses, with only his head sticking out. A lone grot stumbles across him, and starts choking him.

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.
