Does Homosexuality Have A Cause?

It cannot be said, seriously anyway, that homosexual behaviors are an extension of “normative heterosexual” sexual behaviors, because they are the inverse of those normative behaviors. Some analysts declare outright that homosexuality is NOT a mental illness. Yet it is also deviant, in the following sense:

The homosexual male is not attracted to a female vagina, he is attracted to a male anus, and the male penis. The homosexual male is not attracted to the female figure, he is attracted to the male figure and sometimes emulates the female figure; some male homosexuals become uber-masculine in order to attract other males.

Judging by the homosexual street festivals in San Francisco, some homosexuals engage in demeaning acts such as Golden Showers where they allow themselves to be urinated on. Other homosexual acts are fisting, oral-anal, oral-penis, mutual masturbation, scrotum/testicle sucking, anal instrument insertion (I know of one case where a light bulb was inserted anally, where it ultimately broke, resulting in an emergency room visit). There is anonymous sex using small holes in walls or barriers.

Being the complete inverse of heterosexual behavior and even repugnant to at least a high percentage of heterosexuals, how can homosexuality be considered normative? And even if that question is ignored for political correctness, it is obvious that speaking in terms of evolution (if we must), the homosexual practice is a dead end and is not beneficial to the perpetuation of the species. In terms of evolution, homosexuality is not an extension of procreative sexual attraction: heterosexuality.

Homosexuals claim not to be changeable in their sexual preference; they insist that it is not a choice. If it were a choice their behavior could be perceived as reversible, and morally wrong. They disassociate from bisexuals for whom same-sex encounters actually are a choice. Homosexuals now claim that all studies in this regard are unethical, and attempting to reverse homosexuality into heterosexuality is unethical; it is criminalized in Britain.

Yet forty years of searching for a homosexual gene have failed. At this point it cannot be said that homosexuality is hardwired, a required behavior. And there are anecdotes of homosexual reversals that persist, and cases of adult-onset homosexuality (Note 1).

Does homosexuality even have a cause? The fact that it removes a person from the evolutionary chain and places him into a procreative dead end suggests, that yes, there must be a cause for such an evolutionary negative deviation (Note 2).

So, what is homosexuality if it is not a mental or emotional state, not a genetic or inborn state, not a chosen preference, and not normative? Either there is a hidden cause or one of the denied causes actually is the real cause.

We don’t have facts on the source or cause of homosexuality; what we can say is that it is the inverse of normative heterosexuality and is not an extension of that. We can say that there likely is a cause, and the cause likely is not genetic or inborn. Beyond that, only opinion exists, and research is stopped due to political correctness which is enforced by outrage of the homosexual lobby which is determined to completely normalize homosexuality. If homosexuality is normal, it cannot have a cause. By definition. Nor can it be judged, either politically, scientifically or morally. By definition.

Opinions on this are welcome.

Note 2: Or else there is something wrong with the theory of evolution.
