My understanding is that you're a middle of the road kind of guy. Which, in my limited experience, doesn't call for a shift in pronouns.

So, if you're going to object to Sheldon as binarist, why did you also object to Lola's use of the 'he' pronoun? Isn't that binarist too?

Your life and lifestyle are plenty complicated. There's no need to get snippy if we don't have it all down yet.

And the classy response to an unwanted advance is to either ignore it or to say "thanks, but no thanks." This is true no matter where you fit on the gender bar.

My response of "Buy me a drink and I'll think about it" puts me definitely outside the boundaries of classy.
