If you insist on telling bisexual people that “bi means two”, then don’t ever use the word “myriad” to refer to any amount other than 10,000.
Also, don’t ever use the word “quarantine” to refer to any period of time other than 40 days.
dont use the word decimated unless youre talking about something SPECIFICALLY reduced to 9/10th it’s previous size
Your indignation is valid but your facts are not.
We got a bright one here folks. A real genius.
I’m sorry, I have trouble detecting sarcasm, are you being sarcastic?
Correct. You hard missed the point of the post which is that a word’s definition can evolve beyond its etymological root.
I thought the point of the post was that people who denounce “bisexual” as meaning only two are hypocrites for using words like myriad because the definition of myriad could only refer to exactly 10,000 and they’re only being accurate when they feel like it, rather than the reason being that the definition of something can be something other than its etymological origins.
There was more than one implication to your reasoning. You can’t call other people stupid as you leave a clear possibility of misunderstanding out in the open.
It’s because bisexual in LGBT circles has pretty much always meant “can be attracted to anyone” and should continue to mean that but people try to redefine it and create unnecessary sexualities with the weak and stupid justification “bi means two” even tho bisexual doesn’t have to refer to only two genders regardless of its Latin prefix; we’ve redefined words many times that originally had a specific etymological meaning
