I think that is usually the case unless you are bi. Some of us have fantasies and whatnot, but are not actually physically attracted to the opposite sex beyond fantasy. It's not a cut and dry place, but I don't think having a sexuality is somehow limiting who you can love. I also think Lion's little plan backfired on him.
It was not a "straw argument." You brought up a point that would apply to both homosexuality and heterosexuality. That's just backing yourself into a corner.
I'm not on the cusp. I nailed it. The only honest positions you have are to retract your statement or to admit that you too are bound by these statements that you intended to sound distasteful. Sorry, pal.

I dislike straw arguments as much as the next guy.
