    • 1996 October 7, Michael Thomas, “Re: The Curious Blinkers of Michael Thomas”, in soc.bi (Usenet):

A large part of that "yuck" was the highly evolved bisexuals who were quick at the gun with anything that didn't fit their bicentric notion of the universe. That a great deal of that bicentrism was thinly veiled homophobia didn't bother them in the least.
