I'm Bisexual

OK, nobody probably really cares, and that's ok, but I just need to do this.  I'm Bi-butch.  Which is great because it means that everyone in the whole world is my bitch!  Rock on!
I'd like to thank the dailykos community for all the amazing diaries and comments that have helped me come to that understanding about myself over the past few years.  I've been mostly a lurker here as well as on Redstate and other con blogs.  But its been really enlightening for me.  The people I want to thank are too many to name here.  Neil Strauss and his fabulous book: The Game is primarily responsible.  Neil I don't know you but thanks and to you too Mystery.

What's amazing to me is that I feel like everything makes sense after 25 years of struggle to understand why I am the way I am.  Its like a piece of the puzzle just fell into place.  Here I was just a straight guy trying to make it in the world and not understanding that everyone had a chewy center.  I thought their center was hard, like a peach, not gushy like a melon.  How about that?

Similarly many of the political issues discussed here are clearer.  Right and Left are literally speaking across each other from perpendicular and incommensurate erotic axes.  Essentially the Right's gay side is stunted and underdeveloped, and the Left's straight side is similarly stunted and underdeveloped.  I think this structure applies to men and women in both parties.  Part of coming to a full understanding of each other will require embracing the erotic aspects of both and, like that scene in the movie Contact, the puzzle will slide and lock in 3 dimensions, not two.  What is horizontal will be vertical, and vice versa, what is 1 will be 0, and vice versa, and what is now seen as a pylonic pole will be seen as flat.  

For those of you who are wondering, drugs were not a part of coming to this understanding about myself.

I feel like, frankly, I don't know where to begin.  But thank you all and I love you..  all.

Jibes, hilarity, snark, support, whatever.
