It kinda feels like you don't and you just walked in this thread and came to your own conclusions. Now I'm not saying I know CL in real life but after being friends with her on FB and chatting with her here on this site it's pretty obvious that she isn't playing these games you accuse her of. Your insistence that she is and saying we are pretty much blind to her actions does come off as quite rude.
I think you'd do better to re-examine the OP and ask more questions of CL, to be honest. She stated it seemed to her that "a lot" of atheist females are bisexual; so many in fact, that it leaves her guessing that it may very well exceed percentages present within the general population. Then she requests that asks that forum members explain the presence of rampant bisexuality on this site; After her proposition is shown to be correct and her poll produces results the anticipated results, of course.
She then, without being asked, offers her reasons as to why she wants to know all of this, which amounts to:
No reason, really.
Duh....curiosity? Tee-hee. I dunno, gang.
Certainly not to bolster any pre-conceived notions/presuppositions she has in regards to atheism or what she considers to be unnatural/ungodly behavior, though. Because CL would never do what she's been known to do a multitude of times on this forum.
Apparently it's easy enough for you and and several others to accept the cheerful assertion that she has (or had) no earthly clue as to why this was important/relevant enough for her to form a premise, conduct a poll AND request explanations to her questions she posited. Great. That's fine.
But I don't.
She's a reasonably intelligent adult of sound mind, and I have every reason to believe that she does indeed understand her own motivations for asking questions and attempting to acquire specific knowledge. That, along with my own prior interactions and observations in regards to CL, leads me to believe to that the OP was indeed laden with pretense. Whether or not you chat up CL on Facebook has no bearing on that matter, as far I'm concerned.
You find my position to be rude? So what? I find the backhanded insinuations, feigned ignorance, and utter insincerity that colors much of her posting to be "rude" as well, but I manage to live with it.
So I imagine you'll be okay, too.
Hope that answers your questions.
