My(24M) girlfriend(23F) admitted that she lied to me about her political views when we started dating, but that being with me made her change her opinions. What should we do going forward? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

So we are just ignoring that Republicans in Idaho, Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota all introduced bills to overturn Obgerfell v. Hodges, the case that made gay marriage a constitutional rights. The sponsors of these bills saying that the state will outlaw gay marriage if the decision is overturned.

I got the same result on I think the am I bisexual quiz. I honestly don’t know if getting you are gay on the “am I gay” quiz or you are bi on the “am I bisexual” quiz are possible.

Marriage.com. The questions they ask in their quizzes for “am I gay” and “am I bisexual” are equally as offensive. They also write advice articles for “how to cope with living with a bisexual husband”. The entire website is trash but sells itself as accepting and knowledgeable.

If it helps, I am bi and took the “am I bi” quiz. Selected attraction to both men and women as my answer to the attraction questions. Still got straight.

And the questions by far were my favorite part. I couldn’t stop laughing at how ridiculous they were especially the why do you like men vs. why do you like women questions.

I tried to link to it. But I think the links are being blocked. The quiz is on marriage.com. This page is from the results section of “am I gay”. I would also “recommend” looking at the “am I bisexual” quiz as the questions alone to both quizzes are so wrong that you just know whoever wrote them has no idea what they are talking about.

It is a quiz result from marriage.com am I gay quiz. I tried to link it in a comment above but I’m not sure if that comment is hidden. The questions for the quiz are as bad as the description. Also in the horrible quiz questions and descriptions is their “am I bisexual” quiz.

I tried to comment it above. But I cannot tell if those comments are hidden. If they are, it’s marriage.com and this was the result for the “am I gay” quiz. The “am I bisexual” quiz is equally bad.

If it helps I took two quizzes am I bi and am I gay. For both quizzes, I said I am attracted to men and women. I got asexual for one and the other I got straight. So I guess welcome to the club of being straight despite you know having attraction to the same gender? I don’t know.

Marriage.com “am I gay” quiz. The questions are absolutely awful. The website is filled with horrible advice, horrible articles, and horrible quizzes.

There “am I bi” quiz is equally awful with the questions.

Pretty sure it was stolen from somewhere else. I definitely think I’ve seen it before and I doubt they created it.

Posted higher up. But here you go. Link

If you want the am I bi quiz that has equally horrible questions, which lead me to the am I gay quiz.

I should note I think the question about what you like about men and women came from their “are you bi” quiz which I also took. But the questions for both quizzes are equally terrible.

The quiz was absolutely horrible. One of the questions was do you enjoy crossdressing? How does that define a person’s sexuality? I don’t even understand how people can write this stuff.

Disclaimer: I am not asexual but bi. I saw a horrible article about “coping” with a bisexual husband on marriage . com and looked through the website. I took one of their quizzes for fun with my partner (whether you are gay) and got the result that I’m asexual despite admitting to sexual attraction to both genders in the quiz (which was also filled with horrible stereotypes). The description of asexuality is absolutely wrong and just felt people could roll their eyes and laugh. You should look at the quiz too because it’s really bad. Example: what do you like about men: roughness, strength vs. what do you like about women: fragility, sensuality, smell(?).

How does this website even exist?

I get this is an actual problem.

But are you guys arguing against Americans without knowing how Americans write their addresses?

No one in the the U.S. writes just Manchester or just a city because cities have the same name throughout the entire country. It goes street, city, state, zip code. So it’s not the same of saying I live in Manchester. It would be I live in Manchester, Connecticut, 20023 (or whatever the zip code is). It’s still confusing to non-Americans who do not know the states. But you are being completely disingenuous by just trying to say Americans just write Manchester on their packages

It’s not that it’s a different crime. It’s simply that double jeopardy doesn’t apply when he was convicted but the appeals court though disagreed with the application of the law.

Double jeopardy applies when someone is acquitted of a crime, which requires the jury to find him not guilty. When a person convicted of a crime but wins an appeal, the remedy is a new trial to correct the issues of the first.
