[ Wrestling ] Open Question : Do you think The Rock is a 1990s, 2000s or 2010s wrestler in the WWF/E ?

I think The Rock is a combination of both but barely because when he made his debut in the WWF in late 1996, he wasn't even called The Rock yet he was Rocky Maivia at that time. By the time he started getting over with the fans as The Rock, the 90s were almost over because it was 1998 - 99 by then. He spent more time as The Rock in the 2000s but even though he was still in the WWF/E when the decade started, he was gone by 2004 (by then he was already doing movies and wrestling at the same time). Then The Rock stopped wrestling completely and spent the rest of the 00s decade making movies, he spent even less time wrestling in the 2010s which is his most recent run in the WWE he missed 2010, came back in 2011 and was gone by 2013 aside from one match in 2016. What do you guys think ?

[ Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered ] Open Question :  Am I a lesbian?

I'll try to keep this short: So I have always dated guys. Yet when I am not dating guys, my best friend and I; who's a girl, hook up. We've been doing this for about 5 years, we met at the age of 15, and 5 yrs later I had my first lesbian experience with her, and then 5 years it became a fairly regular thing. 5 years is obviously a long time. But when I'm not dating a guy, I always go back to her. And she's the only woman I have ever been with. That's why I am confused about this. I do not know if I'm straight or a lesbian?
