Since they find the idea of having sex with a woman repugnant, they do not expect me to have a different reaction to gay sex. I'm having some trouble with that. It's one thing to find doing something yourself repugnant. I would think gays would understand your not wanting to have sex with them. It's another thing entirely to retch at the thought of two other people doing it on the other side of town. Reminds me of that discussion the other day on empathy and sympathy. I identify to the point of intervention with a bug drowning in a pool but disengage from the yucky activities of consenting adults. Other people ignore the bug but are overcome with disgust to the point of intervention at what's going on across town. The world sure is a queer place.
