Gay is not kinky

People, I have only one brief thing to say, today, and that is this:

Homosexual sex is not kinky. Do not send me a note saying, "You say you're kinky! Can I introduce you to my girlfriend?" Also, do not send me a note saying, "You say you're bisexual! What other kinks are you into?" Also, do not send me notes implying one or the other of these ideas.

Why? Because they make you look like a jackass.

Yes, lots of people who are queer are also kinky, and vice versa, but that doesn't mean they're the same thing. And when you say something indicating you don't know the difference, you not only come off looking like an idiot, but you're also going to get a long lecture from me, right before I close the chat window or email thread and throw it in the trash.

Seriously, you might as well be one of those nincompoops suggesting that being gay is the same as being into bestiality. You may be conflating less offensive classes, but it's the same move.

I'm the least-kinky person I know, and even I know that far too many people nowadays throw almost everything into the "kinky" bucket, using it as a synonym for "anything other than one-man-one-woman missionary-position sex."

These people need to get the hell out more.

I don't care if they get out more or not; I just want them to think, damnit!

It doesn't seem so much to ask...
