If you watch porn with a man and a woman, you share gender with 50% of what's going on in there. You're 50% gay. Obviously if you share 100% of the gender in the porno that's 100% gay. Now you might be thinking if you watch porn with two people of the opposite gender then you're at 0%, but what they are doing is gay which means you're watching gay porn. Watching GAY porn is in fact, GAY. Now, if you were to watch porn between someone of the opposite gender and a transvestite, half man half woman, then you share only 25% of what's going on in that porno which means you are 75% less gay. That's the transitive property

Private property is basically the stuff you, and only you, own but do not participate in using yourself though you get whatever benefit that stuff contributes to. For example, a factory is the private property of a factory owner, though the factory owner (boss) doesn't actually work within the factory and instead hires people (wage laborers) to work in the factory producing stuff, though the boss collects whatever profit the workers in the factory produce.
It is also know as "impersonal property" and is considered the defining part of capitalism. Anarchists (most notably P.J. Proudhon) and communists contrast private property with personal property, personal property being things like the house you live in, your bed, your guitar, your computer, your shoes, etc. which you are actively using for yourself and thus have the right to exclude others. Private property on the other hand creates an illegitimate authority and, according to them, must be abolished.

My boss operates an apple orchard on acres and acres of private property he inherited from his parents and hires us to harvest all the apples for him, and while he makes a great deal of money off the apples he pays those of us who actually pick the fruit $6 an hour, but he's able to because he owns the orchard.

A legal entitlement which sometimes attaches to the expressed form of an idea, or to some other abstract subject matter. This reflects that the idea is a product of one's mind or intellect, and that property rights can be applied to these ideas and that they may be protected by law in the same way as any other form of property.
John's idea to promote reality television became his own interlectual property and will earn him substantial royalties from here on out.
