Peter

I believe I am what is commonly termed bisexual, which is by the by because actually I no longer sleep with men or women. But if I did, I promise you, you'd be right up there on my wish list, together with Michelle Pfeiffer and... River Phoenix.

What it means

Peter calls himself bisexual, says he no longer sleeps with anyone, and offers the listener a high place on a hypothetical wish list. The compliment sits within a qualified self-description, without establishing a relationship or anyone’s consent.
