Thanks Oprah

I caught an episode of Oprah today as I was writing about Cheese Bacon and Onion hamburgers in Europe. And the topic was the fluidity of sexuality in women. In short, the show detailed the ability for some women to love men, then women, then men, then women. Oprah was later introduced to the Kinsey Scale - a reference point I use all of the time in identifying how you are born gay or straight but all within a scale ranging from purely heterosexual to raging homosexual.

Oprah seemed amazed that such a scale existed (which I find hard to believe). She is, after all, an "educator," a "teacher," so not knowing about Kinsey and his research is odd. But I appreciate her introduction of the scale to middle America as this way, maybe Ma and Pa Keettle in Kansas will stop thinking when I turned 26, I "decided" to get turned on by muscle men poured into 2(x)ist briefs.
