I've always wondered why they call themselves gay and lesbian. Both of the males and females are "gay"/homosexual so it's just like saying gay gay. My husband laughs when I call them the gay gays for that very reason. It makes no sense.
Good point, Trillian, and none of it makes sense. Without trying to be too graphic about it, their primary defining behavior doesn't make a whole lot of sense either. Maybe some day the pendulum will start swing back - it's sure swung pretty far the other way!
