    Philosophy Sexual Orientation Doesn't Exist

    Yeah, I mentioned something to that effect a while back. Even in nations where there is a very harsh penalty, sometimes even execution, for homosexual acts - there are still people who have gay sex. If sexual orientation were so fluid as to essentially not exist, then surely the threat of death...

    Philosophy Sexual Orientation Doesn't Exist

    Of course a chaste person could still be a homosexual. Take your average horny teenage boy who is still a virgin, that kid still very much a heterosexual even if he hasn’t has sex. As for men in the past who had same sex desires but still fathered children - it’s hard to say because the...

    Philosophy Sexual Orientation Doesn't Exist

    I can address it. If someone had no sexual desires at all, it is likely inaccurate to call that person heterosexual, bisexual, or homosexual. Just calling them asexual might suffice. If someone just has a very low sexual drive and sexual desires, but still has a little bit, I don’t see why that...

    Philosophy Sexual Orientation Doesn't Exist

    How can someone saying that they are attracted to men, women, or both be wrong? If somebody says that they feel sexual desire and romantic interest in women, but not men, assuming that the person isn't lying then that would indeed be a factual statement, would it not? That doesn't mean that the...

    Philosophy Sexual Orientation Doesn't Exist

    Well, in the very simple sense that most people likely imagine when they say sexual orientation, it does kinda exist. That is to say, you can lump people into broad categories like being attracted to the same sex, being attracted to the opposite sex, being attracted to both sexes, and then onto...
