Re: If all of someone's past relationships are with the same sex...

[(Anonymous)]

They're not, though. "Probably gay" means "nearly certainly" and all but erases bisexuality as an option. "Might be gay" keeps both options on the table. Even if you think he is gay not bi, it's incredibly rude to assume.

And yes, you are "allowed" to draw conclusions based on behavior. I never said you weren't. But again I say, it's only reasonable and appropriate to tell people he's "probably gay" if you're unwilling to accept bisexuality as a legitimate option. The non shitty thing to do would be to tell your friend he might be gay, or you think he's gay. Not to state things as fact and erase an entire sexuality.

Okay but saying "probably" doesn't erase the option - its saying based on the evidence presented you think gay is the most likely option, but is leaving a chance you are wrong. It does not indicate unwillingness to admit he could be bi imo.

Hmm, well that may be the dictionary meaning of the word "probably", but people could use it with an intent of it having a milder sense. I know I use it a lot, and I tend to mean "very likely" with an implication of "not absolutely" tied into it.

So I don't see "probably" as totally pushing the option of bisexuality off the table.
