Maybe it is discrete, but what are the physical correlates that describe
bisexuals? They always seem to drop off into a miscellaneous category in
study after study.

If the orientations are discrete how many discrete points are we talking
about? Certainly not two, and three doesn't seem to fit too well either.
Maybe 20? Any guesses?
