    I won that argument and salted the earth in that debate. Waters is Hannibal to my Rome. Because of me Brodie is no longer equated with the Tanners on this site or CG. She is recogized as a genuine and pioneering scholar whose JS biolgraphy is a true classic regardless of the defamatory Mormon lore about her.

      You are thinking of the wrong thread. Trust me, you won nothing the moment you posted it.

              Interestingly enough, one of the members of the panel is a guy I worked with for many years and I had no idea he was bi. Never would have guessed.

                MikeWaters mentioned this group in the CG link SU posted, but I also wanted to ask. WTF is up with the Standard of Liberty group? www.standardofliberty.org

                (for all I know, some on this site could be affiliated with this group of gay bashers)

                    We have a thread about that website and group somewhere on here. Like you, I am too lazy to do a search or I would give you a link.

                      The protest at this event was the first time I have ever heard of them. The fact they protested means it is topical to this event. They sound as batshit crazy as the 'Sons of Helaman group' (the anti-monkey spanking group).

                        It tickles me to think that us sappy progressive Mormons give SU such heartburn. Ha!

                          True bisexuals are super rare. Doing it with both men and women does not equal having no preference at all. Even a slight preference for one gender is enough to define someone as homosexual or heterosexual. Bisexual=no preference at all.

                          It really bothers me people use the word bisexual to describe people who do it with both genders.

                          Most gay Mormon men would fit the incorrect definition of bisexual, since they tend to marry women and then have sex with men on the side.

                            I didn't realize sexual position factored into this. I guess this is stuff you learn in med school?

                            There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

                              I also learned that it's normal for sexually active men to masturbate a couple of times per week.

                                I'm afraid you're going to be bothered for a long time since you're about the only to hold this ridiculously narrow and useless definition of bisexuality.

                                But of course, you don't make shit up.
