The problem with the continuum is that is suggests linearity, or roughly level proportions, with people falling in equally along the scale. In fact, the “continuum” looks more like a barbell, with the hetero side of the barbell being substantially larger (roughly 17.97 times) than the gay side. The connecting bar portion comprises a much smaller proportion, and consists of bisexuals with some closer to the hetero side, others to the gay side. It is these people who may “choose” one team or the other. For those at either end of the bar bell, however, there is no choice to be made.

Those trying to eliminate gay marriage are, in effect, trying to influence the choice to be made by the few who are on the connecting bar; they will have no effect on either end.

I’d cite studies to support the truth of the foregoing but, in truth, I’m speaking from between my ample glutes.
Be quiet now, talk of those glutes make Napper's and Tex's nipples hard.
