ummm . . . . and why exactly is saying someone is bisexual homophobic?

With the understanding that this "News" piece comes from one of Sky/Fox's own Rupert Murdock's somewhat declass, frequently "right-wing loony" newspapers, "The New York Post", so try not to hyperventalate at it's tone. It's the behavior of our dear LGBT brother (ex) New Jersey Governor Jim McGreevey I'm aggrieved with here.

Well lets see, from her viewpoint, if he was with her and another man, he's bisexual! How is that some kind of slanderous statement or something? If she had regular sex with him, but now he chooses to be with a man, he's still bi....hello?

I think that McGreevy was referring to her intentions in calling him bisexual rather than the idea of calling someone bisexual at all.

Look at it this way. Imagine someone referring to a biracial (black and white) person white because deep inside they have a problem with black people and want to ignore that part of the person so they can remain friends. The biracial person might find that offensive, right? Actually, people have been know to admit they think of their (non-biracial) black friends as white so that they can feel more comfortable around them, so there's an even better example.
