Well admittedly the argument is abstract, and as a result most will not find it persuasive. It nevertheless explains the philosophical basis of natural sexual morality and it by no means excludes barren couples. We recognize the individuals in barren marriages not because of their barrenness but because of the logical entity that is reflected in their physical union. All humans are predicated on that entity. Whereas in a fertile couple this entity is potentially completed as “male + female = human”, in a barren couple it exists as “male + female = “. However it actually concludes in nature, we all understand that were it to find completion, the answer would inexorably point to yet another instance of us. The difference between a fertile couple and a barren couple is merely the difference between “2 + 2 = 4” and “2 + 2 = ”. We all know the answer-- and it is us. With homosexuality, the “mathematical” entity itself becomes perverted and non-human. “male + male” is not us. Neither is “male + female + female”-- both of which are permitted by your arbitrary requirement of ‘reciprocation.’ We ought not be forced to accept these corruptions as our identity. Those who wish to express acceptance of them ought to be free to do so using their own resources. But no one has the natural right to force anyone to accept what they most fundamentally are not. Gotta run...
