When it comes to sexuality, my brain tries to keep up, then just flops and goes "I like guys. I like guys who like guys. May you like who you like in peace, and please don't startle the cat."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The person I saw outraged was a heteromantic asexual, but I was thinking she was or wasn't queer on the strength of the aceness.
Also, she defined straight as requiring being cisgender. Oh. But I think of my FTM cousin as straight, because he married a woman. It just seemed respectful. He's just not cis. Does that mean he's queer? QUILTBAG, maybe, but not queer.

You don't like guys who like girls?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I thought there was an axis of romance, and one of sexuality, so most people==heteromantic heterosexual, but you could also be heteromantic homo/pan/demi/asexual. That the two aren't related.
That's how I understood it.

I think I need a chart of some sort here. I thought I had it, and then ita ! confused me again.

The problem with the sexual axis is that it isn't a line. Other than that, it's a perfect model.
Nice addition of Matt Cohen to 90210. Discombobulating.

Yeah that is extremely bad form
Also, illegal.
She and her boyfriend claim people do it all the time
People also run stoplights, cheat on their taxes and steal from their employers all the time.

I would call him straight.

Well, nonlinear lines, sure. Those make sense to me.
