If sexuality is a spectrum, does that mean one person is the gayest?

Yes, me

I could beat you in a gay-off most any day of the week
- Gay-off!
  ..It's a gay-off.
- Could you beat me off in a gay off?
Bullshit, it's me.
- Only one way to settle this: A GAY-OFF!
Nope, it's me and I bet you can't prove me wrong.
- You're all wrong. Everyone is straight on the Freddy Mercury gay scale.

If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them....maybe you can hire The Gay-Team.

Does the big burly black man still need to be drugged to fly?
- No need. The Gay-Team takes the train. Choo chooooo!
- Phrasing

So entire human sexuality can be described as being between two people at each ends.

a kind of worldwide spitroast

Only if you think someone's position on the spectrum never changes over time. Which, judging from the microsecond moment of pause induced in "straights" by the proximity of shirtless Jason Momoa, is not how this works.

Whoever is gayest could change from moment to moment as individual scores fluctuate. Or maybe you have to look at it as an average of all those cumulative scores. Rich had a fleeting moment of straightness, in an otherwise 100% gay life, that puts him a hair behind Stephan, whose gayness has been unwavering since birth.
More likely though, I think whether you look at the cumulative, or second to second, its a many way tie.
that's a beautiful thing. so, what moment were you all at your gayest? have you ever been THE gayest?
- God I sure hope so. This is the only life I've got.

I think of it like beauty - there’s not much disagreement about whether someone is a 9, but a 10 is completely subjective. For someone to be breathtakingly stunning, there usually has to be something about them that most other people don’t see.

So......like, born with TWO penis's, and both of them are super gay?
Most people never see your two penii, or your 37 nipples.
- Most people never see your two penii, or your 37 nipples.
  Not with that attitude.
- That reminds me of the guy with two dicks who did an ama on Reddit many years ago. IIRC his dicks were mostly straight but could go either way.

Not necessarily, there could just be a hard limit that multiple people hit. They're gayness is pegged, if you will. 😏

Once you get to the elite ranks there will always be disagreement on how to score the parameters of ultimate gayness

Much like IQ, once you're more than 2 standard deviations from the mean, there's no statistically meaningful way to measure additional queerness.

More importantly does that mean people can be ordered by that and can we construct a binary search tree to find anyone with a specific value of gay within O(log_2(n)) time?

If and only if you can define "gay" on a one dimensional axis, otherwise it would be like plotting points on an N-dimensional graph, I'm pretty sure "gay" is a multiple dimensions thing.
So sadly we wont be getting a

tree: BinaryTree<Person> = BinaryTree::new_sorted_by(order_gayest);
anytime soon 😒
- Surely you'd need a non-binary tree?
- There is at least a time component to consider, as you might feel gayer some days than others. It likely also depends on your company, that is, if you are around a lot of hot men who are open to the idea of gay relations but not many hot women interested in you, you might feel gayer than if it were the other way around. So by sorting the population you would skew the amount of gay in a population by grouping gay people around gayer people and not as gay people with the even less gay.

It's more that each person will have a moment in their life when they are at their gayest

And it goes up and down at a certain gaydence.
- gaydance
  Gay, gay Rasputin, lover of the Russian king
But that doesn't change the fact that every moment there'll exist someone who is the gayest, it's just the same person may not hold that status for a very long time.
- Oh dang, so you're saying I was the gayest person on earth once, but because it happened in my sleep, I never noticed? That explains those dreams.

Yeah, and according to those mean kids on Xbox Live, it’s me.

But aaalso somehow... your mama.

Sigh… yes. We’ve already been over this guys.

Frankie Grande is the gayest person. Freddie Mercury is the most bi person. Sabrina Carpenter is the straightest person.

It's not a competition.

its about going out there and doing your best for the love of the game
Not with that attitude

Yes, probably my wife.

I'm the straightest person. I don't have a gender, and I'm attracted to all genders. 'all' and 'none' are by far more opposite each other *than any two specific sexes or genders could ever be.

Oh snap, you're me.
As an agendered pansexual, the wildest thing to me about the trans/cis divide is actually feeling that strongly about having a preferred gender. I simply can't fathom caring hard enough to put up a fight about it. I default to "female" because I was AFAB, but if someone calls me by a different pronoun, it's whatever to me.
Now let me be clear - just because I don't feel gender for myself, doesn't mean I can't respect and support those who do feel strongly about their genders.

And as a reference to this comment, this post was fueled by unmedicated ADHD, autism, and cannabis (and a bit of frustration, since I accidentally closed the window after the first time I wrote it, so I had to write it twice.)
- I think "agendered" is the best description for me as well and I share your perspective. AMAB and kinda lazy so dude stuff is the default but I can't internalize the idea of gender dys/euphoria. (Body dysphoria makes sense to me, it seems to me like an entirely different thing than gender presentation which has a huge spectrum and varies wildly across cultures)

Yes it does, and Grant O'Brien is a STRONG contender for that title.

Brennan, Lily, and Tao each have a moment during that episode where they're reading a thing and their brains turn back on in emergency mode and they realize to their astonishment what they're reading. I usually don't like cringe humor, but those looks are the reason I can still watch True Facts About Grant Anthony O'Brien.
Grant is bi...
- He once sucked 49 dicks in a night at a sex party.

Someone sucked the most dicks, so yeah.

If they sucked 2 cocks a day (conservative, I know) over a gay career of fifty years, that would be 36,500 cocks. Which is a very respectable number imo. But is that gayer than a guy in a committed relationship sucking the same cock 36,500 times?
But(t) am I the gayest for sucking the most cocks or because I'm the best?
- Yes.

Whenever someone breaks a barrier as "The first gay..." remember that they're technically "the gayest...".

Not necessarily, there probably exists multiple orderings on gayness , the question is if you can create a total ordering and if its multiple people are maximally gay, or at least if the gayest people are equally gay.

It does mean that, yeah.

it's Nathan Lane

Birdcage does set a high water mark, but he had a hard time being public about it so he's going to need to try harder
Probably Alan Cumming. I mean.
I dunno. Rip Taylor set a pretty high bar

Scientifically speaking no, just like 2 objects can have the exact same color multiple people can all be on the end of this spectrum.

Yes. Once base stats are at maximum, it's all about positions, gear, and situational awareness.
Doesn’t this imply gayness is discrete and there is a quanta of gay?
- Whoever proposes a coherent Quantum Theory of Homosexuality is gonna win a fields medal.

That's what Big Gay wants you to believe.

Colours are a spectrum. That doesn't stop two things from being the same hue/wavelength

I've seen sexualities you people wouldn't believe. Drag Queens at the Fyre Festival off the shoulder of Orion's Disco. I watched sequined gowns glitter in the dark near the Berghain Entrance. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

Yes. And it sadly isnt me

no.

One person could be the gayest, if it was a scale, not a spectrum.

Does that mean light is a scale and not a spectrum?
- Brightness is a scale. Light (color) is a spectrum.
  Gayness is a scale, and someone can be the gayest.
  Gayness is a spectrum, and everyone can be different kinds of gay.
  Simple sience. which is mostly gay. scientifically gay.

Ask

about

Yes it’s Gianmarco Vincent Soresi

He's literally straight tho

Yes but sense it is ever fluctuating it will be impossible to know. But personally some of the gayest people I have ever met (as a gay) are the closested gays.

Yes. And just like watchtower folks, if your asking, it's not you.

It's not a set, so you can have duplicate values. So no, probably not.

Like you have a list and the range of its values is [0 ... 1]. You can have a whole lot of 1s, but none of them are the sole biggest value.

But gayness would be a continuous, not a discrete, metric.

no on multiple levels: a spectrum doesn't mean a sliding scale, and a sliding scale doesn't mean leaderboard.

hayley kiyoko is called lesbian jesus for a reason

Maia Arson Crimew

I don't know anything about that but im the straightest!

Boo! Everyone is free to be themselves without judgement, but if you're super straight there's something wrong with you.
/s

Elton John.

The fact that Frank Frazetta is basically the most hetero man you could imagine IS proof that a maximum on the spectrum is nearly attainable.

We've answered this question in The Whitest Kids U' Know - Time Travel

Probably not when you consider that there is probably a break point in there. Being super gay just means you’d under no circumstances have sex with the opposite sex, no?

Maybe its gayer to bottom for both men and cis women though, maybe "gold-star" gays are leaving some arguably gay acts still on the table
- I think sex acts are within your sexuality, not the other way around.

Yes

Gay-off!
