     I haven't ruled anything for the future out.  Perhaps i should
have made it clear that my feelings for her haven't really changed.
But she has made evident that it is very important for her to fully
explore this side of her she has exposed.  She is truly in love with
another woman but has not yet been able to tell the girl about this
love.  I've tried really hard not to think of it as my friend
deserting me for a woman, because she hasn't.  She's just entering a
new phase of her life that I can only be part of as a friend and
supporter. I'm so proud of what she's accomplished so far in terms of
accepting her own feelings and "coming out".  I wish I knew more women
as open and fun as she.

Let me try.  Like a gay male character (or crypto-gay) in an E.M. Forster
novel.  Traditionalist, anti-feminist, well-to-do, and often in the closet.
But when these guys do come out, they do a world of good for gay rights.
When Marvin Liebmann's book, "Coming out conservative", comes out in 
paperback, I'm gonna buy it.

So I guess I'm glad that they're around to help gay rights, but I fight
with them so much over women's issues and other political matters, that I
can't get along with them.  The University of Chicago has lots and lots and
lots of them, but not many are out.

By the way, the two recent flames I got on soc.motss was when I said 
something good about Darrell Yates Rist (who is critical of the "gayness
is biological" theories), and when I wanted to talk about a conservative
gay male professor (Allan Bloom) at the U of C, who had died.

Hmmm' - I thought the idea of the "androgynous society" as such went out 
with the seventies when men stopped wearing eye-liner :-). But on a healthier
note, it did give rise to the idea of the (if oft' elusive) "new man".
Men who aren't afraid to display sensetivity, and shy away from being macho
simply because it's whats expected.

Well, I'm into androgyny as you describe it. One thing I noticed, after a
few years in California was that our engineering department here has NO
women, whereas in California, most engineering teams had a large if not equal
proportion of women. It seems that software engineering in England is a male
domain. (I've even heards others here say "Well, of course women think
differently, they can't do lateral thinking, etc"). I have always felt much
more fulfilled when I have had a good proportion of female collegues, if only
for an increased variety of perpsectives. It's this kind of demarcation of
professions according to gender that I'm against. The feminine and masculine
qualities of men and women, individually offer us alot which would be lost
if men and women acted, looked or thought the same.

Same here, I appreciate men as men and women as women - atleast when it
comes to the secondary sex characteristics.

>I wonder if I'm unusual, and if everyone else in the bi movement likes
>the androgynous look for both sexes.  Any comments?

I can only speak for myself here - but no, I'm only ever attracted to men
who are masculine though with women, although I tend towards the feminine
types, I think it has alot more to do with strength of character and 
personality (in other words, I don't like the classical "bimbo", though
a strong woman acting the bimbo can get my attention :-). I think the world
would be a drab boring place without the distinctness of men and women.

I think the problem here is for each of you, your bisexuality means a
different thing *to you*. It's an easy and dangerous path to start
thinking 'well, I'm bisexual, and I think X, so therefore bisexuals
think X.' We're a very disparate group of people, and therefore all
but the most inclusive definitions of 'bisexual' only cover a few of
us. It often seems to me that we're defined as much by what we're
*not* as what we are; we're a group of people who have all decided
'we're not gay, and not straight, and not sexless' - the only other
alternative within easy reach is 'bisexual' so we apply that to
ourselves, because it's less inaccurate than the others. Of course,
this is probably an inaccurate definition too ...

Yes, and they are hitting all the college groups trying to get people
to buy into them.  I can't remember the name, but they sound
reasonable.  However, many (and I mean *many*) of these "Mom and Pop"
long distance carriers really aren't cheaper than the "big three".

Personally, I put my money into the phone company that has done the
most for building a gay/les/bi-postive working environment for their
employees.  AT&T.

I don't agree with some of the other things they do, but if you
could see what positive things they're doing for their employees
you'd be amazed.  Their gay/les/bi employees organization now has
18 chapters around the world!

Metrical impurity?  It's absolutely bog-standard ballad metre.  If I

   The middle of the night.

Satisfied now?

a certain lady from Rhode Island (if you know who I mean, you'll be
sure who I mean - I don't want to embarrass Pea... oops, I mean 'her'
by drooling in public *again* ;-) ) well enough to comment on the
correctness or otherwise of the use of the superlative above, hmmm???
