Californiese slang for San Francisco, the place where no one can afford to both work and live. It's one of those few Californiese slangs that people from other places learn to say, thinking it will make them sound like they've actually been to California, and the one that San Franciscans refuse to say, because they resent being Californiese. As foggy as Frisco is, they still haven't the foggiest idea what to be; they're simply sure that Californiese isn't it.
"Frisco" originated during the California Gold Rush, when people were too busy trying to make their fortunes to pronounce all the syllables that the Spanish missionaries had thought place names needed. The Spanish originally named it San Francisco de Asís, but that was just impractical.

Only people who can afford not to work can afford to live in Frisco. Anyone who works there lives some place like San Jose or Santa Rosa. In turn, those displace so many people in San Jose and Santa Rosa that anyone working in those cities can't afford to live there, and live some place like Ukiah or Modesto instead, making sure that California's prime agriculture land gets paved over with tracts of homes that sit empty all day long until the owners come back at night, after one hella miserable one or two hour commute, and pretend to live there.

The natural result of San Francisco is that people who work in Santa Rosa or San Jose can't afford to live there, because people who live in Frisco took all the houses, and have to live some place like Ukiah or Modesto instead.
People used to both live and work in Modesto, but now they have to commute from Sonora or Madera. It's all Frisco's fault, and the sooner one of their faults dumps them in the ocean, the better.

One's preference for a particular type of sexual partner, regardless whether that preference is rigidly or casually held, and regardless how morally repugnant others may find that preference.
heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, and pedosexual are all sexual preferences. Pedosexual propaganda uses pedophile as a euphemism in place of pedosexual to make it seem like it isn't all that bad.
