  • Doubly Subverted: "...also, I like girls."
  • Parodied:
    • Bob asked Alice out at a lesbian bar. Carol says "Dude, do you know were we are?"
    • Bob runs into Alice and Carol at a bar, and asks Carol to introduce them. Carol says "Dude, she's a lesbian." Bob, undaunted, sits down next to her, and says, "So, what's Lesbia like then, gorgeous?"
  • Deconstructed: Bob is informed that Alice is a lesbian. His response? "Oh, fair enough. What, you thought I should assume that from her haircut? Dude, how homophobic is that? And anyway, I figured she might be bisexual."
  • Reconstructed: Turns out she is bisexual, and both Carol and Bob end up in a relationship with her.

  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???
  • Played for Laughs:
    • Bob asks Alice out and is surprised that she's a lesbian even though she's wearing a gay pride shirt and making out with Carol.
    • Bob says "I'm a lesbian, too."
  • Played for Drama: Alice and Bob live in a world where homophobia reigns supreme. Bob would have to be a heartless Jerkass not to protect her now.
