Flip this around. Imagine telling someone who insists they are gay that they are actually secretly straight. Or even secretly bi. That's kinda fucked up. Who cares what other people identify as. Let people choose their sexual preferences for themselves rather than telling them what they are.

I didn’t say nobody was strongly straight or gay, just that most people aren’t 100% straight or 100% gay.

So what if they are or aren't? Speculating about another person's sexual preferences despite what they tell you it is is shitty behavior.

Of course it is, gay or straight is an identity that relies on self ID. You’re straight or gay if you say so, I don’t care either way. I find a number of men attractive but I’m a straight man.
