My grandmother didn't like Germans and she had every right to her opinion because her experiences of them justified her prejudice. Biggins experience of bisexual men will be what's behind his assessment of them and that's a shame for him because things are different today but I understand why he thinks the way he does even if I don't agree with him.

It just seems a bit silly to believe that some people are attracted to the opposite sex and some people are attracted to the same sex but that it's completely impossible for some people to be attracted to both
