They're Not Gay, They're Flexisexual

Stop paying attention for five minutes and you miss all these trendy new terms.

Ever since Madonna planted that wet kiss on Britney Spears in front of millions of television viewers at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards, women have been loosening up sexually with other women.

These so-called flexisexuals say that although they are not gay or even bisexual, they enjoy flirting and kissing girls -- but they still enjoy having sex with men.

One female senior at Hofstra University in New York said she is apt to turn to women when she's had too much to drink.

"I just kiss girls because it's funny and entertaining to do when under the influence," she said. "When you just kiss a guy, you deal with the pressures of feeling like you have to go further, and with girls that is never an issue."

If you're not comfortable with flexisexual, there are other terms you may use. One can only imagine who sits around dreaming this stuff up.

Flexisexual is also known as heteroflexible, pansexual or queer, all subtle variations that mean they are not closing any doors.
