If someone has some controversial, nonharmful preference, "how did you get that preference" shouldn't be relevant. If it is, it means we're viewing the preference as an unfortunate mistake that we only accept when we see the person as a sufficiently helpless victim.

I don’t quite get the homophobia on the right. I suspect three underlying causes: - inborn disgust reaction (adaptive due to higher risk of infections?) - gay hedonism goes against family values - gays suspected of underlying pederasty But still don’t get the intense hate.

i used to be real anti-gay, pro conversion camps, etc. for me (and my culture) as far as I can tell it was bible based + disgust reaction, where the disgust reaction allowed greater amplification and focus on certain bible verses

Well, it's fine to not care, but I think is fundamental to the progress of our species to try to understand the mechanisms by which human preference and behavior develops, especially in such an important case. It's not that its moral status could change; it's clearly fine...

This - conversion camps have been used as the capacity to psychologically confuse and manipulate people is a real phenomenon - discovering the true nature of sexual preference provides a solid foundation to be embraced on a individual level

aliens implanting gayness sounds like a fetish story tbh

All of those alien abduction stories from the mid to late 20th century involved anal probing. Always good to have a difficult-to-corroborate alibi.

Adopting an idealistic, fundamentally political sexual identity is not “fine”. This applies to so-called straight people as well. A value hierarchy of sexual behavior would be far better than the current mess, which primarily serves political power accumulation.

I agree, and I think this is where progressive groups have veered off into madness because they are intent on telling you that sexuality is a biological inevitability so that it's more acceptable. But studies only show that it is partially inheritable, so their argument fails.
-
you understand that partially inheritable ≠ non biological, right? like there's a lot of things you're born with but did not inherit
