It came up in discussion at SFSI training last weekend. For separate talks to students, people with different sexual orientations come and talk and answer questions about their orientation. There was a scheduling kerfluff: the straight guy flaked, the gay guy didn’t show (it was a mixup), but the bisexual man swooped in, gave a fantastic talk and was great. I was like, OMG: in a city full of gay men, you have no gay rep, I could almost literally pull a card-carrying straight boy out of my back pocket for you — but the most mystical, mysterious and invisible creature of all, the bisexual male, showed up and spoke for you. I said, “That’s like having a fucking unicorn appear.”
To which Thomas replied, “You’re seen Planet Unicorn, right?”
