'twas Sarcasm...

I was just making light of the flame war that would have taken place here if he were asking the question for real. ;)

That would be sexist, instead of racist. And for the record, I don't consider it sexist, and I am gay (read: homosexual (for you ppl that don't believe me for some odd reason)). Some ppl might be offended at this, but IMHO they need to develop a sense of humor.

Thanks, Viper GTS!

Actually, it wouldn't be sexist either. Sexist is based on gender, not sexual preference.

Yeah, I guess I'm technically wrong too. It would correctly be &quot;homophobic&quot;. I have heard a ton of people say that incorrectly... I guess it's getting to me :eek:

I really don't know if it would be called sexist...You'd need a single word that equates to the phrase &quot;prejudiced based on sexual preference&quot;

Wrongo;

You see people that arn't bi don't have a preference, i.e. there can be only one. Preference implies a list of things that you can chose from and people don't chose their sex. So I would switch them around and say genderist is based on man/woman whereas Sexist is based on ones sexual type.

Any chance you could explain what this means?
What is a 'sexual type'?

Dually -- actually gender refers to &quot;masculinity&quot; or &quot;femininity&quot; (Or androgenousness I guess, if you're Pat from SNL). &quot;Sex&quot; refers to &quot;male&quot; or &quot;female&quot;. So I guess you're &quot;Wrongo&quot; too.

<< ARE YOU GAY?

An employee for USAir, who happened to have the last name of GAY, got on a plane recently using one of his company's &quot;Free Flight&quot; programs. However, when Mr. Gay tried to take his seat, he found it being occupied by a paying passenger. So, not to make a fuss, he simply chose another seat.

Unknown to Mr. Gay, another USAir flight at the airport experienced mechanical problems. The passengers of this other flight were being rerouted to various airplanes. A few were put on Mr. Gay's flight and anyone who was holding a &quot;free&quot; ticket was being &quot;bumped&quot;.

Airline officials, armed with a list of these &quot;freebee&quot; ticket holders boarded the plane to remove the free ticket holders. Of course, our Mr. Gay was not sitting in his assigned seat as you may remember.

So when the Ticket Agent approached the seat where Mr. Gay was supposed to be sitting, she asked a startled customer &quot;Are you Gay?&quot;. The man, shyly nodded that he was, at which point she demanded: &quot;Then you have to get off the plane&quot;.

Our Mr. Gay, overhearing what the Ticket Agent had said, tried to clear up the situation: &quot;You've got the wrong man. I'm Gay!&quot;. This caused an angry third passenger to yell &quot;Hell, I'm gay too! They can't kick us all off!&quot; Confusion reined as more an more passengers began yelling that USAir had no right to remove gays from their flights.

As far as I know, they are still on the tarmac fighting it out. ;-)
