That one circular chain of people who seemed mostly to agree of having either two gfs or two bfs and never crossing another person in the chain...

I kept looking at that too. It's crazy to me that there are only 2 cycles in the graph and one is the big accidental one. It honestly makes me think that either something must be wrong with the data, or it's reflective of some deep principle of math or sexuality (e.g. that people won't fuck around within their close social grouping nearly as readily as they will with people on the outskirts of it).

Also feels weird there's only one same gender connection (female to female) as far as I could see in that whole thing...

There's a male-male one on the rightward branch of the ring structure.

There's also a male male in the left side of the ring
