If sexuality is a spectrum, does that mean one person is the gayest?

        You’re all wrong. Everyone is straight on the Freddy Mercury gay scale.

    If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them…maybe you can hire The Gay-Team.

      Does the big burly black man still need to be drugged to fly?

    I think of it like beauty - there’s not much disagreement about whether someone is a 9, but a 10 is completely subjective. For someone to be breathtakingly stunning, there usually has to be something about them that most other people don’t see.

    Only if you think someone’s position on the spectrum never changes over time. Which, judging from the microsecond moment of pause induced in “straights” by the proximity of shirtless Jason Momoa, is not how this works.

      Casual Sex implies the existence of Ranked Competitive Sex.

      Birdcage does set a high water mark, but he had a hard time being public about it so he’s going to need to try harder

    Yes but sense it is ever fluctuating it will be impossible to know. But personally some of the gayest people I have ever met (as a gay) are the closested gays.

    Scientifically speaking no, just like 2 objects can have the exact same color multiple people can all be on the end of this spectrum.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
