Some people don't take the time to understand sexual identities, but one professor is trying to change that. Twitter user sincerelyelise went to her college class and receieved a quiz that was both surprising and utterly brilliant. Her professor titled the page "Questions for Heterosexuals in the Class" and asked a series of inquiries about how the students decided to be heterosexual and if it was just a phase.
These are the sort of ridiculous questions that people in the LGBTQ community deal with every single day. Obviously, while doing a lecture on sex research, this professor was trying to make a valid and important point. No human being should have to answer these questions about sexuality ever. It's not a choice or something you can change. It's a part of who you are.
Other Twitter users applauded the teacher for the brilliance of the quiz, and Elise's tweet went viral. Check out some of the responses below.
@sincerelyelise your professor is awesome. please send all the hugs/high-fives from strangers on the net to 'em!
