You jumped in before I could, also to say to Karma not to be too hard on yourself. We all react and start to opine before thinking the thought through at times. One bit of interest: I am most definitely a woman, yet when a lover introduced me to Quake (he holds marathon sessions with friends all networked in a room), I had to tear myself away! I found it amazingly addictive. Then again, I have more male friends than female friends. Maybe this says something?

Certain archetypes reside within the collective consciousness of humanity, including the notion of what a "man" is and what "women" are. I think gayness offends heterosexual men's sense of these rather amorphous, yet powerful archetypes. Sexuality is a very primal element of our humanity, and there is a preconscious sense of what is "right" as it pertains to sexual modalities which are conducive to the survival of our species. This is a very deep topic, and I think we see the dance of ancient, limbically(?) based archetypes when we discuss them.
