I think it’s the ‘yuck’ factor, and it’s fine that people have that feeling, as long as they realize we’re not all the same and can take a more accepting view when necessary. I think all the other objections, religious or otherwise, are really motivated by the ‘yuck’ factor. This factor arises from deep-seated prejudices about the anus, feces and masculinity. You don’t find religious people carrying on about usury or other sins to the extent they do about male homosexuality. Funny, though: I don’t really have a ‘yuck’ factor concerning heterosexual sex. The concept just leaves me a bit cold, except on those odd occasions when I have dreams involving heterosexual sex.
