That would be Bisexuals + Homosexuals > Heterosexuals (numerically or
by percentage)
Yeah, that's definitely a "high side" estimate. That's why there are a
couple of "qualifying" words in the statement.

I think sexuality is a matter of who *you* think you are rather than
what others perceive you to be. Further, I see sexuality as a matter
of how one feels about things rather than what one does.
In that sense celibacy is irrelevent to sexual orientation.

No. Just people who are oriented towards the opposite sex only.

If you are talking about a person who thinks they are bi but has never had
sex with one (or both) of the sexes, sexual orientation isn't about who a
person has or has not had sex with, it has everything to do with who that
person feels sexually attracted to.  Determining if another person is bi can
be difficult.  I don't know how Robert drew the conclusion he did unless the
women he dated were open about it.


> And who would 'pure' heterosexuals be? People who find homo-sexuality
> repulsive?


No, I think he simply meant that the person feels no sexual attraction to
members of the same sex.  That doesn't require feeling repulsed by it.  As a
matter of fact, there is a good chance that a person that actually feels
repulsed by homosexuality probably feels that way because they are
sublimating doubt about their own sexual orientation, and I would question
the "purity" of their heterosexuality.  I think Robert's estimates may be a
bit high, though, if he really thinks bisexuals might outnumber
heterosexuals.

I have some questions:

How do you determine if somebody is 'bi' if they have never acted on it?

And who would 'pure' heterosexuals be? People who find homo-sexuality
repulsive?

One thing you have to remember about Bisexuals.
They can blend into any crowd.
Remain hidden as long as they like.
And only attract notice if they want to be noticed.

My personal experience tells me that 40-60% of women I have dated were
Bi (to varying degrees) and I would suspect the numbers are similar
for men.
Male homosexuality is suppressed in our society to the degree that
male bisexuals either hide their sexuality or never act on it.

I suspect that "pure" heterosexuals may not even be a majority.

In order to be average some need to be on either side of that average. I 
tend to think that we average out, but only with a big standard

I really AM curious about people's arrangments.. I don't talk much about my life, but 
many people seem to be (happily) married with kids (but then, I tend to think the 
whole world is like that ^_^)

Does Brin-L have any openly GLBT members (excepting myself, of course)?

I would be very surprised if the list were representative of the overall
population.  This group tends to be more intelligent and more liberal than
the overall population, and, as consequence, it is far more likely that
people here will be more open to the posibility of an alternative lifestyle.

Myself, I would say I'm bisexual with a strong leaning towards heterosexual.
I also must admit that if homosexuality were more accepted, I would probably
be bisexual with only a slight lean towards heterosexual.

Are we as a population representative in terms of sexuality distribution? Does Brin-L 
have any openly GLBT members (excepting myself, of course)?
