LGBT terms

[MisterMagoo]

I don't understand the fascination with having to pigeon hole our selves.

Ok I fancy guys, that makes me gay. Great.
But why would I need to run around telling everybody that, publicly labeling myself?

I like a certain type of guys, and I have certain sexual preferences... just like everybody else on the planet.
I don't label myself, I'm just plain old me, like it or lump it.

I've no idea what half the terms mean, and if I'm honest I really don't care.
