I've read through all these posts. And before I start, please don't misunderstand me and perceive my response as hostile. I only put forward that these philosophers are maintaining a stance (according to the information above), based on philosophical opinion. Being that, regardless of whether one believes their sexuality is inherently predisposed; or reinforced by or outright created by environmental circumstances, it is a physiological question either way.
I adore this line of questioning regardless of my own feelings, or the fact it is mere opinion because it touches a concept that goes beyond personal opinion. Are there negative variables to our sexuality, that defined anthropologically, are inherently defective in nature within the greater scope of humanity?
I would submit that all questions that push for a greater understanding are worth asking; and diligently seeking resolution regardless the cost, worth any perceived pain.
