Everyone Is Bi: Difference between revisions

* [[Ménage à 3]] starts out with a varied cast of gay and straight guys/girls with one Bi girl. By now, every single named character (and plenty of one-off extras) has had at least two or three instances where they've shown more than a little attraction for both genders, with the exception of the landlady and the guy who stays indoors and thinks it's still the 80's.

* ''[[Homestuck]]''. Troll reproduction centers around emotional relationships rather than a combination of biological equipment, so any pairing is viable for breeding, and sex is pretty much cosmetic. One troll (Karkat) even shows astonishment when the human characters try to explain the concept of monosexuality to him.

'''John''' Yes.<br />

'''Karkat''' HOW IS THAT EVEN A THING?<br />

* ''[[Superjail]]''. Maybe? It's not even entirely clear about the ''gender'' of the collective main cast. In any case, no one seems to be deterred in their crushes by little things like transsexuality or gender-switched counterparts from another planet/dimension or people who can apparently spontaneously give birth through their anuses. Or ''death''.

* Agent Gilette of [[Archer]] is a fairly typical gay stereotype, complete with fruity accent. But even he would line up to get busy with [[Hot Amazon|Lana]]

** This was actually pretty typical of various ancient societies, where it can seem from the modern perspective that [[Everyone Is Bi]], when in fact it's more a case of [[Blue and Orange Morality|Blue And Orange Sexuality]], to borrow a metaphor.

** [[Julius Caesar]]'s [[Berserk Button]] was people saying that he had been the submissive partner in a relationship with the King of Bitynia. [[Insufferable Genius|Cicero]] summed it up, when Caesar was pleading for Roman support of the man:

* Ancient Spartans were more or less required to be bisexual. A Spartan boy's first relationship was expected to be with an older man, who would act alternately as father figure and lover, and there were several laws regulating the nature of this relationship (such as "if a boy is courted by two men, and he chooses the richer, he has to pay a fine"). By contrast, a Spartiate would have an [[Arranged Marriage]] with a woman he didn't know and be expected to consummate it in secret (though later they would be allowed to live together as a family). Things are less clear on the female end, but several hymns relating to women and their yearning for "choral leaders" exist..

** There have been some writings that tell of the women shaving their heads, so their soon-to-be-husbands can ease into the idea of a sexual relationship with a woman.
