Just assume that anytime I refer to a conversation between my brother and I that it was recent and on the phone. We talk a lot.
Anyway, we got on the subject of sexual preference. We were discussing "queer by beer" and girls kissing girls for attention. I think we finally worked our way to the more conventional gay and bi labels.
See, we do talk about more than just Tyra, The View and Swingtown.
Very casually he mentioned that he thought today those definitions were prehaps too confining and that the younger generation (high school and college students I presume) see sexuality as more fluid.
In other words: Bi Now, Gay Later . . . Maybe not.
I get what he's saying, but there's a part of me that worries about this new label because I fear it gives credence to those who believe being gay is indeed a choice.
It would be easier to argue that if sexuality is indeed fluid then you have the power to change the tide.
Let me just add that I don't think one chooses to be straight, gay or bi.
Am I wrong?
