So now you are changing your definition of normal, as you can see it is completely subjective, so when you use it to define something to others, your idea of normal conflicts with my idea of normal.

I feel so honored.
Nope..I'm saying a woman cannot do it on her own.
She needs male sperm to have a baby.

The question begging will never stop. It's why these discussions never go anywhere. But, that being said, I am not willing to enlist the establishment to enforce my preferences.
So you looked at men, and looked at women and while you were attracted to men, you found yourself more attracted to women, that is a choice. Is that what you did when you chose to be straight?

Dictionary and Thesaurus - Merriam-Webster Online

That may help you to be more easily understood.
I looked at the definition. Wanting something over any other thing. An advantage given to something and not the other. It sounds the same to me.

Sexual orientation cannot be observed - even though action. I could go have sex with a women right now, and it would not speak one bit to my sexual orientation.

Sexual orientation is an internal characteristic. It's not observable. It's relayable.

Quote:
A more objective realization would be "anatomical" sexual orientation. In this case, the man and woman have clearly defined anatomy which is outwardly suggestive of compatibility.
That wouldn't be any kind of realization of sexual orientation. It's simply the beginning of how you'd explain human reproduction to a small child.

Quote:
Your anecdote is nothing more than a disclosure of how you choose to act on certain impulses.
I didn't give you an anecdote, nor did I disclose anything about how I've ever chosen to act on any impulse I have ever had. I provided an accurate and truthful statement about my sexual orientation - a disclosure of the sex of human being to whom I am, and always have been, emotionally, romantically, and sexually attracted to.

Quote:
Based on the objective example I gave you above...these impulses are suggestive of possibly a disorder
Only if you're conducting a value laden analysis starting from assumption that sexual activity between people of the same sex is wrong (hardly an objective analysis).



Why is that you always avoid and deflect? Are you incapable of having an honest conversation? I'll try again: To what sex - or both or neither - are you emotionally, romantically, and sexually attracted to?

Not for much longer. Scientists in Japan have created embryos from two human female eggs.

Surprise!!!

You don't have to like both sexes to make a choice to sleep with the same sex or the opposite sex.

Whichever sex I allow it to happen with.

All it is is DNA, the difference between men and women is a single chromosome. It is only a matter of time before science is able to change how babies are made.
