Chinu,

Bad question. Moonie is a whore. You can't expect him to give you an honest answer.

what is the difference between homosexuality and prostitution.

Hmmm.... funny, I was just having a conversation with a buddy of mine down at the local pub and we were discussing the comparisons between modern dating rituals and prostitution..

But first, I would state the obvious (which you apparently missed) and note that prostitution is a sexual profession, which both heterosexuals and homosexuals participate in.

It is NOT a sexual orientation.

Thus, it's like comparing apples and oranges..

As for whether homosexuality is hereditary, or a sexual preference, I guess it depends on what sex you are. I've known women who PREFER other women because they found them more "sensitive" and compassionate than your average lascivious neanderthal male..

In fact, I used to have the biggest crush on this one "lipstick lesbian" gal and we would discuss the issue at length.. She herself was confused about whether it was psychological or biological.. What was particularly strange was the woman she had hooked up with was more masculine acting than many men I know (but not masculine looking). I would just sit there and wonder why she was choose a man trapped in a woman's body when she could find a nice sensitive guy who was willing to meet her needs (enter Moi... ;0) But alas... never happened and we eventually lost touch.. (couldn't handle her "gal pal" walking around in blue jeans and a white t-shirt with a pack of Misty cigarettes rolled up the sleeve..... Something right out of a Jam(n)es Dean movie..

But for guys, considering the difference in "plumbing" and what the type of activities they engage in, I just don't see how any guy would choose to engage in such an "activity" (I think you all know what I mean)..

I consider myself a flaming heterosexual... A lesbian trapped in a man's body, if you will.. So I have absolutely no desire to engage in such an "activity", even with a woman..

But maybe I'm just a bit biased.. Or call me a prude (snicker, snicker..) But its too much like male on male rape from my perspective. And that's an act of domination over other males.. That doesn't strike me as a "loving act"..

But my pet theory is that, for the most part, homosexuality is nature's defense mechanism against over-population.

After all, there is far less inclination for procreation amongst homosexuals.

But hey.. that's just my theory.. The answer is probably far more complex and a combination of both biological and psychological (preference).
