I really hope he's joking...

One of my co-workers, who sits in the cubicle next to mine, was telling me about how his three year old daughter is riding a bike already. I made a joke about how she could be the next Kathy Watt, who was a gold medallist in track cycling a few years ago.

"What, you mean a lesbian? I hope not."

"Well, I was referring to her cycling ability, but if you're going to see it that way..."

"Well, you know what I mean. Women in sport and all that."

"Tim, riding a bicycle does not make you gay."

*sighs* I really hope he was joking. Mind you, that's about the general mindset of your average Australian voter, if the election results are anything to go by.

I really do dislike that stereotype.
