          That phrase comes from people who are either stuck in the closet, or in denial about their own sexuality. It is just one of the many byproducts of a society that still insists on considering that being straight is the only “normal” way of being.

      I didn’t say that it was a tier list based on how surprised I’d be if they came out as Bisexual, now did I? Strictly gay.

        Several bisexual people I know call themselves gay. I also assumed bisexual was included. I think it’s a more general term these days
