1. Not everyone finds homosexuality disgusting. How then do you claim that it's an evolved response? Are leftists all genetic mutants? It might be fun for you to say yes, but I think it's a difficult claim to make seriously.
2. Even if it were evolutionarily ingrained, you'll find that we don't live in the ancestral environment. -
If we evolved in an environment where gay sex was largely safe, like it is now with our current understanding of STI transmission and how to combat it, there would be no reason disgust would be selected for, and probably no-one would find it disgusting.
There is no possible environment where gay sex is "safe" - even mechanically it will leave you with permanent damage and it's perfectly suited to being a disease vector which is why the STI rates for gays are so absurdly high.
Does that imply you'd be ok with homosexuality if we only ever blew each other?
Of fucking course not. Look dude, this isn't your true objection. You'd think gay sex was gross if we were all going around with robot bodies sticking robot dicks into robot assholes.
The guy who said that disgust is a good guide (for sound reasons) is guided by his disgust at disgusting behavior? Congratulations, you cracked the case.
How do you explain the fact that so many people don't find homosexuality disgusting? Disgustingness is a property of your attitude to homosexuality (which is by no means universal), not homosexuality itself
I deny your assumption. It's (near) universal.
Nope, universal in this case - because of obvious reasons of disease risk, tendency towards boy rape, etc.
