Calling me a troll is pretty offensive. I have no problem with you. Just one of your posts, that's all. That doesn't make me a troll. I've never gone looking for your posts to discredit you and such. It pisses me off when someone tries to tell someone else what they are when they are not even sure themselves. You can take it back now, but your original post was doing exactly that. Prince has described himself as a highly sexual straight man, same way I see myself, others claim he is bisexual, who are they to say. There's nothing wrong with being bisexual, but saying that because the OP is attracted to cocks (not men, but cocks), he is cut and dry bisexual, you are defining him. There's a lot more to sexuality than that.
Your post was an example of a wider view, and the wider view of this thread, and of society. I wasn't addressing you, but the entire mindset of heterosexual males which *a* likes to define things as a, b, or c, cut and dry, and *b* uses bisexual in a derogatory way, 80% of the time, and you know it. I don't accept anyone telling me what I am based on being attracted to cocks or whatever, and I felt the same about the OP. And you can diss me for not being attracted to the rest of men, but I'm just not, we can't help what we are attracted to. It's my loss. Read through the whole thread. Read through every thread that mentions cocks, bi, gay. It's stacked with homophobia. It's sad. It makes me sad.
Peace.
It was not my intention to make you sad. Sorry if I did.
It seemed as if you were attacking my post and me directly. (for example Y-O-U in caps)
I am not trying to tell anyone what they "are" in the sense of what they "must be."
I was merely pointing out how a person fitting that description also fits in the accepted definition (for the sake of communication) of bisexuality. (your definition c)
I am not defining him per se - Merriam-Webster has already defined him (and everyone - again for the sake of communication)
Merriam-Webster is not trying to tell anyone what they "should be"

I was also expressing my hope that however he defines himself (or is externally defined) that he will be comfortable with who he is.
Rather than changing the word (or its meaning) because some members of society abuse people with the word (they do that with many words), perhaps it would be better to try to change the perception of those members of society.
If you feel that a new word should be added to the lexicon because the above definition doesn't properly take into account those who have changed their sexual organs or those who are attracted only to sexual body parts (which I still don't completely understand), feel free. Perhaps one is needed to clarify the meaning of "sexes" given that the traditional (1824) classifications of (XX chromosomes - vagina) / (XY chromosomes - penis) are not necessarily fixed.
For now, that's what we've got (at least in English) and it's much less confusing than allowing everyone to make up their own personal definition.
In any case, no hard feelings. No, I don't even mind that you negative Rep'd me. (I don't really pay much attention to that stuff anyway)
Water under the bridge.
Go have some fun. As for me .... I'm gonna go watch some porn!:thumbsup:
Peace :wave:
