I've noticed that there are several threads for Firefly fans who are single, for the purpose of meeting possible relationship partners. It just kind of made me think, what if you're gay, lesbian, or bisexual and you're looking for someone in one of those threads? It would be a little difficult, because you don't know who's straight and who isn't unless they specifically say it. So I thought I make a separate thread so things would be easier. I know that certain groups might be offended, so if you are, just go to another thread. Please don't flame

. I simply think that since Joss Whedon is tolerant and supportive of same gender relationships, it shouldn't be a problem here, right?

Also, I'm not trying to out anyone or anything. If you don't want to say your preference, that's totally fine. I'm bi... but no one on FF.net knows me in person besides my ex, so it doesn't really matter.

You know... that's actually a really good point! And since I tend to mix up which posters are male and female, I can imagine the fun and games trying to figure out which ones were gay too!

"No power in the 'verse can stop me!"

I totally agree and I personally know a couple of FFF.net family members who are either bi or same sex peoples - though I myself am hetro - I think this is an awesome idea!!

Go you!! Oh - by the way - are you male or female?

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I agree w/ Magdalena. I'm a hetro male, but I have no problem w/ same sex or bi relationships. To each their own, right? I do know people in same sex relationships or who are bi & I know how difficult it is for them in a world that is far less tolerant than it claims to be.

Good for you!

Is it just me or does anyone else consider it incredibly funny that pretty much all the posts in this thread are "I'm hetero, but great idea!"?

LOL! I was just going to say, maybe we oh-so-cheery breeders can leave this thread to the purpose and let the others look for a date.

I'm female. And it's great that pro-gay straight people are posting here, everybody's obviously welcome.

So I take it Inara = bi, Willow = gay and Andrew = straight? I don't get what Andrew is doing up there, but whatever. I actually thought this was going to be about the episode of How I Met Your Mother with all those actresses and actor.

Anyway, interesting thread. I'm a hetro male too.

No, Andrew is definitely not staight. Haven't you noticed that he's stereotypically effeminate and has a crush on Warren, Xander, and then Spike? I'm not trying to be a crazy slash 'shipper... it's pretty apparent that he's gay. And I'm not the only one who's noticed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Wells#Sexuality. Wikipedia can be inaccurate sometimes, but I think it's right on track this time.
Flyvote, I wasn't trying to find someone to date in here. Personally, I think internet dating is as pointless as it is unsafe. I started this for LGBQT members, and even though I'm included in that I'm not going to participate.

I never got that impression from him and I think this part is clear as day "As the scene ends, he is shown leaving for the opera in James Bond-style attire with two attractive women, referring to them as his dates."

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.

Heh, well, anyone who talks to me much at all here can probably figure it out, but yes, I'm bi.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Spoilers for Buffy season 6 and the Buffy comic - just in case!

Throghout season 6 he was depicted as having a crush on Warren.

In season 6 and season 7 he was shown to find Spike attractive. In fact when he, Warren and Jonathan watched the footage of Spike having sex with Anya, he was shown to be paying a lot more attention to Spike than to Anya.

In season 7 he was shown to find Xander attractive.

In 'Storyteller' he saw two women (Willow and Kendra) kissing on a sofa and decided to film... the window that Xander had so expertly fixed.

In the upcoming Buffy comic he is seen complaining about how fed up he is babysitting the new slayers when there is very obviously a game of strip poker going on in the background.

He's gay. He's very gay. And it's actually always irritated me a little that Willow and Tara were such fleshed out, ordinary characters and Andrew is such a stereotype. Even Larry (season 3) was portrayed much more realistically, and he didn't get nearly as much screen time as Andrew did in the end.

See, DesktopHippie knows what I'm talking about! Two quotes that are the main hints that he's gay:

"He never really loved... spending time with us." (Referring to Warren after he and Jonathon are arrested and taken to the police HQ)

"Spike is SO cool... I mean, the girl's hot too." (Watching the footage of Spike and Anya)

And in Storyteller he was watching Anya and Xander confessing their love to each other and doing a voice-over of Anya so it would be like a romantic conversation between him and Xander.
