Why do people feel the need to force everyone to tick a ticky box that labels their sexuality? Why? Unless you label the box with my name, I 'aint ticking one. I don't understand the obsession. And I get annoyed when people seem to want to tick boxes for me without even asking my opinion. Figuratively speaking of course. (Granted they are usually just making the assumption that whatever box they decided to tick is the same one you would.)
Our society is obsessed with labelling shit. Get over it.
Fandom needs to get over it even more.
Knowing someone's sexual preferences can be useful if you're interested in having a relationship with them, but otherwise it's about as useful and interesting as knowing that they like the colour green better than red or prefer boxers over briefs.

(P.S. May not answer comments on this one. It really is a random rant. lol.)
(P.P.S - This doesn't change the fact that I will fight for equality any day. Not the point.)

What brought this on, BTW?
Erm, lots of little things. Happy to discuss outside of this semi-public forum, but truly not coherent enough to answer in a simple way here. Heh.
(The meta fic... kinda expresses a lot of my views on sexuality. I kinda read it and went "huh, only took me years to come to a similar conclusion.")

Well, if you ever feel like it we could do it by email. Or when we manage to catch up for coffee - we really must do that again!
