        If a homosexual makes a pass at me or otherwise speaks in a sexual
manner, I'm not offended, I'm just not interested.  I would have hoped that
that the level of bigotry that causes people to be offended by such things,
was removed from heterosexual relationships in 20th century as well.

        I think the common misconception that results in this mistaken
offence, is that sexual attraction/desire is dehumanizing.  If anything, it
promotes humanization.  I mean, how would you feel if this thread was about
dogs?

        The joke is flawed though;

$ clean
bash: clean: command not found
