Exactly! I don't see why people get offended by those kind of questions. It's the same as those questions like "would you kill a thousand people to save your mom". It's purely hypothetical, it's an intentionally extreme and ridiculous scenario meant to provoke thought about what you really value. It's not meant to be trolling or offensive or rude or whatever.

I'm saying if FORCED to, if you had a gun to your head, would you rather date (or go further) a person of the sex you like that you hate, or would you rather be in a homosexual relationship with someone who was decent but not your preferred sex?

ah but what if the only woman was your mum, would you have sex with a man or your mum OP?

I think "date" is the wrong word to use in this context. To me it would imply a relationship that went beyond sex, which is not the case here.

There are cases of homosexual rape within prisons, the homosexual element occurring due to lack of choice, rather than preference.

This is a fun question. I chose "i'm bisexual so this question doesn't matter to me anyway" But, I'm not 8really bisexual. I'm more pansexual, I just don't care what your gender is. if I like you then I like you.

Since they're both repusively unappealing, the man, as I'm not gay.

But in reality, neither.

Yeah, they're the same thing basically, just a different way of looking at it. Though I guess pansexual would include transgender people while bi doesn't necessarily?
