Wait Until She Finds Out She’s A Homosapien

(I’m doing door-to-door opinion polls, part of which involves collecting various kinds of demographic data.)

Me: “So, would you describe yourself in any of these ways?” *points at a showcard with sexual orientations*

Respondent: *giggling* “Heterosexual.”

Me: *recording the answer* “Okay.”

Respondent: “Nooo, I’m kidding! I’m straight! Wait… ‘Straight’ isn’t on the showcard.”

Me: *deep breath* “Miss, ‘heterosexual’ means ‘straight.’”
