- Let me (male) try to de-mystify some of this. It has been some time that I
- read 'Stranger in a strange land', but I do not think there was a lot in there
- that I would call a bi-relation. My opinion:
- If you are hetero, you will probably get turned on seeing a MOTOS being
- sexually excited. Seeing two MOTOS like that will be even better. And there
- isn't even a MOTSS around to be jealous of. All those lesbian porn movies
- and telephone numbers are not aimed at the LGB market, but simply at hetero
- males.
- I think Heinlein did not advocate any sort of bi-sexuality, but rather wrote
- down what he and his audience would want to read. His audience (then) would
- not have been pleased with gay sex.
-
- Guess I'm not a Heinlein fan. Oh well. I'll re-read the answers to my
- de-muffining to cheer up again :-)
