“Are you full blown homosexual yet?”

My pal, who I’dn’t noticed in years, asked me this relevant question at least five full minutes into our meal date. I became getting excited about getting up, nevertheless the relevant question had been such as for instance a punch into the gut. Not was I excited to see her. During our change from teenager years to adults, she evidently hadn’t changed her misconceptions on bisexuality. Like her misconceptions, my identification hadn’t changed either.
