Sexual meaning, your sexual preference.

IE, homosexual, heterosexual.

Sexually, it would me I prefer public transportation.

Part of the reason it's a stupid word. Being a pansy has nothing to do with sexual orientation.

Except it doesn't make sense, in an etymological sense, unless 'train' or 'city' are now genders.

'Homosexual' means, literally, 'same sex'. That's it. Nothing special about the term, which is why gay and lesbian people prefer being called the latter two terms, respectively.

'Heterosexual' means 'opposite genders', and all other terms like 'bisexual' and 'asexual' and so-forth are fairly self-explanatory.

Metrosexual is just noise. It doesn't mean anything and it has a truly artificial etymology, but the closest definition would be 'urbanite'.

-phile is the term which implies sexual attraction. Metrophile would mean a sexual attraction toward large cities. The term for the attraction toward a member of the opposite gender would probably be something along the lines of a gynaphile. Other terms the homosexual community created (like "homophile") are, again, complete nonsense and should be discounted outright.

EDIT for extra Greek thanks to GOY

You put way too much effort into that.



I was just messing with you.


<Rob> Besides, you're a fun person to prod.
<Rob> You're like the pillsburry doughboy, only when poked you rip the finger off and beat the person with it.

Not necessarily... Granted, the Greeks have a strange record when it comes to sex, but philia can also mean *active* passion for something. Philos Sophiai means 'friend of knowledge', not 'sexually attracted to Sophie'.

There are (as far as I know) at least 4 types of greek love:

Eros - Erotic feelings.
Philia - Friendly Love
Storge (sp?) - Love of possesisons
Agape - Unconditional Love

I think words like "Paedophile" are incorrect, because the love is not a freindly one- Paedoerotica would probably be a 'better' word.

Interestingly that was the common term in Ancient Greece - Paederast. Then it was globally accepted though (Socrates! Xenophanes! Thales!)

"Fat chicks need love too, they just gotta pay for it!" - Quagmire

...and homosexual means same ****er, heterosexual means different ****er, bisexual means two ****er.

How does one have sex with a number, praytel?

Your argument already falls apart, because Jon`C destroyed it.

Menage a troi.

I think the patterns and colors on those shirts are absolutely ridiculous. The only one I'd even consider wearing if I was forced would be the last one.

Of course, it's really not my style at all. I dont like the metro/club look. Also, being gay is cliche.

My style is more like.... well, I guess urban... I dunno, it's kind of a mix between emo/punk/whatever the hell I feel like. I guess if you saw me, you'd think "Man, you look like someone off of a Jimmy Eat World video" which is what someone actually said to me once and I was like DIE, I HATE THEM.

but ya... I really dont like and would recommend something a little less... ugly.

Pedophile was originally just a term for someone who likes children. It was often used for people who took care of children - like babysitters. It doesn't have any sexual connotation whatsoever.

The name Phillip, for example, means someone who loves horses.

schming is sexy no matter what he wears.

listen to hiiiiim!

Tenshu, back on topic, those are all very nice shirts. It's not metrosexual either. Metrosexual is a guy wearing a suit jacket with a pink striped button down shirt under it with the sleeves pushed up on both of them.

Wearing clothes that FIT isn't a bad thing, dude.

2nd and 4th are alright.
