i wasn't arguing that everyone had a propensity to be gay.

i'm arguing that sexuality is a lot more complex then a simple state of "a" or "b" and that's all there is to it.

guilt can drive you toward simplistic explanations. and most of us don't want to rummage around in the basement enough to find out what actually drives us.

but someone saying they've never, ever, ever, had a passing gay thought is like someone saying they have never, ever, ever, had a passing thought of harming another.

that's why i say most people are somewhere on a sliding scale.
