And by that definition they are also heterosexual... The point is that those of us who identify as bisexual or queer are neither gay nor straight. Hence the bullshit from both sides of the fence since our culture can't think beyond binarisms.

Yes, one could say that. It's essentially as basic as 2 circles overlapping each other, with the grey area as being bisexual. Both extremities could be placed on either side, with the same rule. If you're a heterosexual by definition, you're attracted to that of the opposite sex. If you're homosexual, you're attracted purely to the same sex. If you're bisexual, you're attracted to both. As with anything with two extremities, there is a point where both collide. And as with the political spectrum, the more one leans to one side, they more they fear the other. Binarisims are common in everything, because having a choice between two options is very common. You're right about the culture aspect; in this case, it results in massive stereotypes and disagreements because of the political and social questions it raises.
Nothing like over-analyzing the subject
