Word of the Gay: "AC-DC"

"AC-DC" is queer code used in chatrooms to indicate that someone is bisexual and sexually interested in both men and women.

Bwaaa, I learned about that on the Behind the Music special for AC/DC...

I still don't get why it's "ac-dc" though, do the letters mean anything?

TR i have no clue, the term is new to me, anyone else know?

I stopped being a lazy bastard for five minutes and from my scant googling, it apparently comes from alternate current/direct current...electrical devices are usually one or the other, AC/DC would be both so somehow that becomes a euphemism for bisexuality.

Unless anyone else has any other theories?

TR you rock, that makes a lot of sense, thanks for looking into it further.
