Would You Date a Heterosexual?

[queerbychoice]

Talking to too many people lately who think significantly differently than me about this subject made me curious about the ratios here. Mainly about the ratios for bisexuals, but I decided to include everybody else in the poll too.

That sounds like an iffy way to choose a mate.

If what you dislike is some other trait about a person (e.g. not being intimately familiar with your pet subculture), then categorize people that way. Don't pick some other trait to harp on, especially if it allows you to say something as trendy as, "Heterosexual men are difficult to deal with."

Heuristics are fine to a point, but put like you put it, you're insulting a lot of people who mean you no harm.

The state of being heterosexual inherently is the state of believing that someone's gender is a good reason not to date them. If someone is going to refuse to date other people because of their physical gender, then I'm certainly going to refuse to date that person because of that choice they made.

You're comparing two like things. Your conclusion does not obviously follow from what else you said.
