Knowing this "Hollywood" beast, I just dearly hope it's not too tasteless or overly doting upon things they think will get an award (if they even care about that) - like that AIDS thing. If they're going to do it and go through his personal life, they might as well go all the way and present him as an actual person - good and bad, and not just a scandalous story. I think it would be great if people walked away thinking they saw something they weren't supposed to. Maybe being grateful for their own privacy. But fuck that, Hollywood will do whatever it damn well pleases.

link I love people who avoid the truth kicking and screaming. Bisexual came round when "Spring Break in Cancun: Girls gone wild" videos started popping up everywhere. I think that's BS... You're either gay or you're not.

... 100 years ago = 1907... Yeah... I think they would. I was going to say they might not know what the word means - but Merriam Webster puts its creation at 1824. Now... just because a word didn't exist doesn't mean it didn't happen. And they may have had another word for it. OR - it may have been so normal that there wasn't a word for it. link Yes, Wikipedia - but it's a good starting place, and I don't want to go track down individual links. Quote : &quot;Many non-human animal species also exhibit bisexual behavior. This is, of course, common in hermaphroditic animals, but is also known in many other species. Examples of mammals include the bonobo Chimpanzee, orca, and bottlenose dolphin. Examples of avians include some species of gulls and Humboldt penguins. Biological examples are predominate in fish, flatworms, and crustaceans.[11] Bisexuality (behavioral and biological) has been observed in over 500 species.&quot; I don't know about the animals - but you see, humans have sex for PLEASURE on occasion. I think it's perfectly acceptable for people to experience sexual pleasure from both sexes - each has something the other doesn't (discounting surgery or anything) - and they can do some of the same things, even ! If you're looking at it not in terms of &quot;sex is fun&quot; - and thinking about attraction of love - it seems perfectly easy for a person to have to capacity to love both sexes. After all, no person has 100% female habits and traits, and no one has 100% male habits and traits. Of course, not all people would be open to a relationship with their &quot;not preferred sex&quot;, or there may be something about that sex that gets in the way of sexual fulfilment (for example, if someone really disliked breasts and that just ruined it for them). It's probably not as prevalent in HISTORY because a long time ago, the human race did need to keep having reproductive sex to increase its numbers - and therefore, homosexual relations would be discouraged (waste of sperm, vessel... et cetera). Repressed, if anything. I don't think it's a really modern concept - and that's the argument that anti-homosexual people use - &quot;If kids didn't know the word for it, it wouldn't happen&quot; (I can scan the letter with that, if you want).

I have to disagree, though that's a nice thought. I think everyone is bisexual. Some just aren't willing to act on it ;) While there might be a dominant preference, I believe it's possible to get close to, and fall in love with anyone to the point of consumation. Especially if you're drunk enough.

dont try suicide wrote: part of me is really excited about the upcoming movie about freddie's life, but the other part of me doesn't want this movie to be made out of fear that they might ruin it. for the most part i think freddie led a very private life and only his close and personal friends really know him well. how people see him on tv has usually been described as being an over the top flamboyant homesexual, which i believe was his alter ego taking control and was not the way acted all the time. i just hope they get his story right before they make this movie. it could be really embarrassing to watch if they don't get the facts right. and he was bi-sexual, not gay. he had girlfriends. as long as the script is well written and they portray his life accurately it could very well turn out to be a very powerfull film. but on the other hand it might end up being one of the worst films ever.
