It's pretty much just for fun... but yeah it is a lot of stereotypes. That's kinda the point, how stereotypical are you. Stereotypes to exist for a reason though. Doing these bingos is just saying "Yeah, I follow this stereotype" or "Nope, I don't follow this one".

That's the point tho... most of these bingo cards are just a "how much do you follow the stereotype?" kinda deal. At least that's how I view them. And as you can see by people's submissions a lot of the stereotypes exist for a reason because they seem to follow a general trend among people with the same gender identity or sexual orientation. That doesn't mean you need to follow all or most of the points to qualify as whatever orientation or identity the card claims to be, it doesn't mean you need to get a bingo to be that orientation or identity "correctly". But it also doesn't mean that you shouldn't fit into those stereotypes when you identify as whatever the card is about because stereotypes applying to you doesn't mean you're just "doing what's cool" or you're just following the trend and you somehow need to be different from everybody else to be valid as an individual. And neither are these bingo cards a test telling you to identify as something just because you got a bingo. It's just a list of things one person thought were typical for an orientation or identity and a lot of other people saying "oh wow, that is so me" or "no, not at all". Basically, it is the literal fun and games instead of anything too serious.

It's why I haven't done it.
