What strikes me as offensive is the idea that the only defense of queerness is "it's not my fault, I didn't choose to be like this". Lots of people choose to explore their sexuality and find that their preferences change as a result. That's normal and healthy and good.https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1316223453570228225 …

(My intuition is that most people are able to bihack, with high variability in "how bi" they end up and how much effort it takes, but that *removing* a sexual interest is likely hard to impossible)

That's my intuition, but perhaps that's because I don't know what it's like to not be a polymorphous pervert. Though perhaps one can remove an interest in Beethoven :)

A lot of the to-me obvious stuff was tried in the mid-twentieth century: behaviorists tried pairing masturbation with heterosexual porn, for example. Not much luck. Christian conversion therapy is mostly Freudian or biblical in orientation.

Yeah I can't imagine a straight up behaviourist approach working. I did read a comic recently which had an offhand mention of someone using porn plus nicotine patches to bi hack and went "Ooh interesting I wonder if that works" but I doubt it actually does.
