Very Four-ward
(I am at a house party where the attendees are mostly from my school, which is a very accepting school with a large LGBT+ population. A male stranger from a different school is present, and my classmate and I decide to make friendly conversation with him. Two of our other female classmates, who are dating each other, have just arrived.)
Me: “Hey, there’s [Couple’s Names].”
Stranger: “Who are they?”
Friend: “They go to school with us. They’re dating.”
Stranger: “They’re DATING? That’s awesome.”
(A few minutes later, we are discussing sexual orientation.)
Stranger: “So you’re gay?”
Me: “Not totally gay, but gay enough. I’m bisexual.”
Stranger: “That’s cool! Have you ever talked to [Couple’s Names] about having a threesome?”
(I am shocked at how rude and presumptuous this question is, but I attempt to keep my cool.)
Me: “Um, no. I actually have a girlfriend.”
Stranger: “Oh, cool. So, like a foursome, then?”
(I stand in silence for a few moments.)
Me: “All right, I need a drink.”
