  1. Yes, it would be clear what they were doing. As to why they think that they're not bisexual or homosexual, only they can answer that.
  2. I think the terms heterosexual, bisexual and homosexual are pretty clear. If someone identifies as any one of these then I think we understand them. There might be a problem with bisexual as it refers to both sides of attraction so I guess it might be on a scale, but I can't really speak for bisexual men or women.
  3. "Remaining population" is a bit coy. ???? I think we should rename it straight people then we can talk about the "hetero plague" Lol
  4. What act? Bisexuality is being attracted to both men and women and doesn't necessarily require a sexual act if that's what you're alluding too. Indeed a bi man could make love to fifty women a week and a man once in a blue moon. Those "acts" if conducted are primarily heterosexual. The distinction is homosexuals are almost exclusively attracted to the same sex, I'm not sure what "5% (drunken, methead..)" means exactly. ????
  5. The article actually says 43% are gay or not hetero/bi. Just stating a fact.
  6. From the article in your link. However, the same study found that 57% of men who have sex with men identified as heterosexual or bisexual.
  7. So there were 21 cases last month and 48 more this month. It's hardly sweeping the country like wildfire. And remember these are new diagnoses. Many of these people might have had the virus already but have come forward to be diagnosed. It's a virus and contagious so it's bound to spike for a while. Also I see some people calling it a 'homosexual' disease because it is currently most prevalent amongst gay men. Using that logic most contagious diseases including STD's are 'heterosexual' diseases as they start in the heterosexual community and spread to the homosexual community. Both are nonsense as disease knows no gender or sexuality.
  8. My favourite is when Phil Tufnell was at the crease and one of the Aussie slip fielders shouted out "Hey Phil, can you lend me your brain, I'm building an idiot?"
  9. If the blues artists started out today singing about their hard lives and how their baby done them wrong they'd be called snowflakes and told to grow a pair.
  10. Indeed, in folk music doing your own version of a traditional tune is seen as a rite of passage. There are hundreds of versions of Matty Groves and Tam Lin in a myriad of styles. As Martin Carty said, once people stop copying that's when the music dies.
  11. For reference on how the blues artists felt about it there's a story about Bobby Womack. He was asked permission for a new British group to cover his "It's All Over Now." Initially he refused saying that he didn't think some British band would do it justice. Then they told him this band were the hottest new thing and sold singles by the million and he stood to make a fortune in royalties and he shouted "Give it to them!!" So the performers themselves profited both in cash and fame from the Brits involvement.
  12. This sort of thing only happens in Rock and Blues. No one says Walton copied classical music from Mozart. ????
  13. In fact it was the blues performers themselves who brought their influence to Europe starting in 1962 with the American Folk Blues Festival. The promise of work and good money lured them away from the U.S where they had been marginalized. Performers included Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson, John Lee Hooker, Sippie Wallace, T-Bone Walker, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, Memphis Slim, Otis Rush, Lonnie Johnson, Eddie Boyd, Big Walter Horton, Junior Wells, Big Joe Williams, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Willie Dixon, Otis Spann, Big Mama Thornton, Bukka White, Jimmy Reed, Howlin' Wolf (with a band made up of Sunnyland Slim, Hubert Sumlin, Willie Dixon and drummer Clifton James), Champion Jack Dupree, Son House, Armand "Jump" Jackson, Skip James, Sleepy John Estes, Little Brother Montgomery, Victoria Spivey, J. B. Lenoir, Little Walter, Carey Bell, Louisiana Red, Lightnin' Hopkins, Joe Turner, Buddy Guy, Magic Sam, Lee Jackson, Matt "Guitar" Murphy, Roosevelt Sykes, Doctor Ross, Koko Taylor, Hound Dog Taylor, Archie Edwards,[3] Helen Humes and Sugar Pie DeSanto. - Source Wikipedia Many local performers like Jimmy Page, Stevie Winwood, Clapton and Peter Green got to perform in backing bands for them and developed a love for the blues which they took into their own work. It was just a progression.
  14. Mate you literally used just LGBT in a previous post. Where do you need to use LGBTQIA2S+’ letters/pronouns? I've never had to.
  15. -The prefix “cis-” comes from the Latin meaning “on this side,” as opposed to “trans-” which means “on the other side of” or “beyond.” Source McGill University Cisgender is relatively new but Cis as a prefix is as old as the hills and is used extensively as a descriptor in science and medicine.
  16. Then act like one. Cisgender was never thought of as a slur until Musk brought it up recently. A slur has to be considered a perjorative term expressing contempt like p--f or n-----r. Cisgender is purely a descriptive and does not imply contempt. A real man would never get butthurt by something so trivial. Don't give me mouthful or punch me Scottiejohn, I love you really. ????
  17. You see, you use LGBT and everyone knows what you mean. It's that easy. No one forces you to use all the acronyms.
  18. First they came for Andrew Tate and I did not speak out................... ...............because it's hilarious. ???? Seriously though, I dislike Andrew Tate as much as anyone but the way the Romanian authorities are going after him is very concerning and will have a chilling effect on anyone trying to set up a sex trafficking ring in Romania.
  19. So you think people who are attending a perfectly legal event in a mall should be investigated? Jesus Christ!!
