Sexuality is gradient

Is sexuality as clear cut as it was made to be known? Are their only the strait, gay, bi, and asexual?

I've come to notice that, with most people willing to talk about such things, sexuality isn't a flip switch between definite and clear sexualities. Instead, it's more of a dial. I can't deny that I have seen men which have admirable, even sexual features to my own interest, but all the same these features were somewhat feminine. If I had to assume, I'd say that the words we use to define sexuality as of current are taken too clear cut.

Short answer: No

Long answer: Machinophilia, Dendrophilia, Necrophilia, Voraphilia, Agamatophilia, Zoophilia, Formicophilia, Forniphilia, Mysophilia, Piquerism, Pyrophilia, Splanchnophilia, Symphorophilia, the lower crust of 4chan and everything in Japan.

I'm not 100% sure what I'm agreeing or disagreeing with,

but sexuality is more like a lopsided and upside down bell curve I think, with a bulge at the straight end but degrees of a bit of bisexuality in most--even if they are not bisexual in practice, i.e. even a straight guy if he is honest can identify that say, a Brad Pitt is good looking. Likely many of even the gayest nature have fleeting instances of attraction toward one of the opposite gender, or at the very least can recognize a good specimen of that gender.

I do believe your response is supposed to be on the other side, because you agree that sexuality is gradient, and not polar.

Sexuality is a social construction, and I feel the boundaries of gay, straight, and bisexual are only cultural. Just take a look at the kinsey scale!

I must say that both the above poster and yourself have comments which are more appropriate with the other side. I have a tendency to be a little unclear I suppose with which side is which.

Side: Agree
