Arises via Ta-Nehisi Coates. When discussing Dragon Age, he refers to a potential for (human) man on (male) elf action in the game as gay/homosexual which I guess is right. Or at least half-right. But isn’t it also trans-species carnal knowledge? (trans-special?…which is an unintended pun of sorts).

Hahahah stop debasing our culture, Dierkes.Report
There are four people with whom one may achieve 100% approval, if you know what I mean.
Two of them (one of each gender) are, shall we say, heteronormative in their approach to inter-personal intimacy.
Two of them (one of each gender) are much more progressive and open-minded and fall in love with the person, not the body part.
And it may or may not be interesting to know that two of them (one of each gender) fit the stereotype of “good” and two of them (one of each gender) fit the stereotype of “much more open-minded”.
So, no matter which race or gender or inclination to good vs open-mindedness you are, you can “only” achieve 100% (if you know what I mean) with three of the four… BUT!!! One of them will be a perfect match for you.Report
