Yeah, what he said.

Hey, whatever floats yer boat. Definitions can be so imprecise.

You prefer a word that some associate with the hairy-chested-Brut-drenched-medallion-wearing view and some go to the other end of the spectrum to terminology some perceive as the Ivory-tower-academic-Kinsey-defined-social-scientist side. Fine.

Either way, like you, flkeyscouple, rpu3, and others have said on this thread that it comes down to what one prefers, what appeals to their sensibilities, what works for them.

Each term has it's baggage, it just depends what each user wants to carry.

God bless us every one.

I don't know about that Thrax,
I think basically everyone agrees that swinging is fun. The debate surrounds the use of the words to discribe it.
