Who cares what they identified as. The claim is attraction is hard wired. So attraction should be the same then as it is now. Or are you saying attraction and who you are attracted to physically is not hard wired?

You are talking about men who didn't identify as homosexuals.
Or are you going to claim that you truly loved every partner you ever had sex with?
Psychological projection is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against their own unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others.[1] For example, a person who is habitually rude may constantly accuse other people of being rude. It incorporates blame shifting.
How do you know that being gay for some of these people isn't simply another expression of them being horny in a culture that teaches that butt sex is just another kind of sex?
If your sex ed program is teaching you all the different possible ways to get your rocks off, then anal sex is just another kind of sex and if you can have it, then why not with anyone available to have sex with if you're horny?
How many discussions have we had about whether or not sec ed in schools should teach safe anal as well as all other expressions of sexuality instead of just the basic birds and bees facts?
Sex is not romantic love; it's sex. And our present culture is very much geared toward teaching that if it feels good, do it.
Being gay is simply predicated on a sexual preference for one gender over another, not on romantic love per se.
Or are you going to claim that you truly loved every partner you ever had sex with?

I'm saying that being a homosexual is more than just sex acts, just like being a heterosexual is more than just sex acts.
Sex acts alone do not determine your orientation. There is much more to it than that.

So anything that doesn't fit your narrative needs to be tossed. Got it.
Sorry, false. I pointed to absolute proof that your position was wrong. Since you had no defense you just said you don't believe it

I'm saying that just because you can "get it up" in a particular situation, doesn't mean you are hard wired for only that particular situation.
What is hard wired is the physical attraction combined with the capability of the emotional attraction added in.
