THAT is what they're going for, I think. Being inherently interesting.

I wish these people would realize there is nothing inherently interesting or unique about being same-sex attracted!! It's just a flip of the coin for the possible sexual orientation people can have; you can be born monosexual or multisexual (two coins, Sky Daddy pulls out one coin and flips it at conception--boom, there's your sexual orientation)

Monosexual coin= 50/50 chance of being homosexual or heterosexual Multisexual coin = 50/50 chance of being bisexual or asexual (attracted to both sexes or neither)

I wish sexual orientation was taught in a neutral way without celebration or shame, it just is.

From your lips to god's ear. Undoubtedly there are lots of well-meaning heterosexuals who intend this as a compliment, but it still "others" us. Which is the LAST thing that we need. Don't do us no favors, straight people! What's in our interest is to be seen-- finally-- as NORMAL. Not exoticized; not treated as a curiosity, or entertainment. Maybe that seems boring to them... but this only shows how privileged they are. You can only see normalcy as boring (and thus undesirable) if you take it-- and the safety/security that it confers-- for granted.
