I am saying that essential sexual identity is not found in behavior. Behavior is a very high expression of a much more fundamental organic nature.

I am saying that sexual identity is a thing, a mathematical quantity etched in DNA. In all human cases, that quantity is hetero, not homo.

The behavior that is most in accord with that identity is hetero behavior, not homo.

Very loosely speaking (just to try to give you the concept) When you look into a mirror you see a pattern that you know as J.F. Shepard. It is really impossible for you to claim the pattern is that of a dog named "ralph." You see the pattern, know it to be yourself. You may, nevertheless, wish to run out on all fours, piss on a fire hydrant, eat some feces, hump a leg, bark and generally behave as a dog, but the fact is, despite your desires, the pattern in the mirror is not a dog at all. You are acting in a way that is foreign to the pattern in the mirror.
