I don’t even understand the question, quite frankly.” A top aide to Mayor Bloomberg applauded the couple. De Blasio insisted he wasn’t exploiting the issue for political gain. “We’re very proud of who we are. We want to tell people what we’re about,” he said.

“Sexuality is a fluid thing”

Uh, no, it isn’t.

Exactly correct Everyone is heterosexual (biology doesn’t lie). Some are just mentally damaged

C’mon, you stuffy old conservatives! Of course, sexuality is fluid, just as morals and ethics are.

“Sexuality is a fluid thing and it’s personal..."

It's not personal in NYC if it's over 16 fluid ounces.

“Sexuality is a fluid thing” Uh, no, it isn’t.

I've known several "bi" women (including a girlfriend in college).

I really don’t care that his wife is a dyke.

Why don’t we look at the role Bill had in the housing market crash?

“Lesbian Pioneer”

Yup, many’s the time I’d hear old Gran tell the tale about the wagon trains of lesbians that settled the west, how every night they’d unhitch the bulldykes from the Conestoga wagons and leave their dildos pointing to the North Star...

think RECREATIONAL as the “fluid” (no sarcasm intended) she mentions.

If it is fluid and changing then there can be no designation for discrimination. It is not an immutable trait.

Just like society frowns on canibalism or animal/human sex, so too does society have the ability to say there are boundaries for recreational conduct.

meanwhile some girl is being pushed by her liberal mother to petition for an “easy bake over” just for boys.

It just became the DO NOT BUY FOR BOYS toy. (see also ken doll.)

Only the weirdos of the cooking chanel endorse the concept.

Well, I like the Dennis Prager theory:

Women make emotional attachments that sex goes along with, and they can have them with women or men. In a normal life, they form them with men.

Men are just horny, and some horndogs will find recipients who are male, female, animal, vegetable mineral, whatever. In a normal life, they are horny with women.
