I didn't find it reasonable. After all, he basically starts by agreeing with the premise that bisexuals can't be trusted to identify their own sexual orientation accurately. His assumptions were highly suspect: it only makes sense to draw his conclusion that "identifying oneself as bisexual is a straight or gay person's way of reconciling their attraction to one person who isn't their preferred gender" [I'm paraphrasing] if you start by assuming that "straight" and "gay" are the only real sexual orientations. His reasoning was baroque and it's very strange that he chose to link to this particular post on his home page. I've been in a lot of Internet arguments, and there were some where I even thought I wrote something clear and insightful, but I don't link to any of them on my professional home page.
