Ask me my sexual preference and I will be offended. A back door to acceptance cascades my aggravation.

My sexual preference is to have it.

It’s a good sign for ACB if the party of imbecility has nothing better to pretend to care about.

Conceive of the inverse of infinity; that’s how much Hirono’s “preference” terminology gotcha matters to anyone including her.

So Webster is twirling in his grave.

Well, “orientation” means to face toward the orient/Asia. Soooo..if oriental is an offensive term now would that, by extension, make sexual “orientation” offensive?

I used to think 1984 was fiction.

They don’t realize it, but they just nullified the definition of “preference.”

At this rate, Webster will suffer the same fate as the other biased media. All of the "establishment" Enemedia are pulling out all the stops.

Wikipedia's Hunter Biden page currently dismisses anything negative about him as "right-wing conspiracy theories". That actually works to discredit Wikipedia, IMO.

So, what if you prefer... I mean, are sexually oriented toward children? Is that an “orientation” or a “preference?”

Force them to follow the illogic of their “logic” to its damning conclusion.

I think so too.

I have a preference. Doesn’t everyone?

These people are so anal, figuratively and evidently
literally.

1984 is alive, well and working at Merriam-Webster

My Webster’s New Pocket Dictionary ©2000 goes from “sexual intercourse” to “sexy”, omitting “sexual preference”.

On this vein, I guess it might as well be mentioned that Sen. Hirono is also outdated & quite offensive ....to normal folks anyway.
