Kd, I think you're still missing my point. Say a person has an attraction to children, but doesn't act in any way to harm them. He has no desire to take advantage of them without their consent, but merely desires young people. Does he still have a mental disorder? If an abnormal attraction, regardless of actions that result because of it, are mental disorders, could homosexuality not be put beneath the same banner? It is not the normal attraction experienced by the majority of people, just as most people don't have any attraction toward children.

Regarding the injury question again, of course it is possible for straight couples as well. Straight sex clumsiness can also cause injury. However, I think such injury could be more likely in gay relationships (I guess, I'm no expert on how these things work), and I think things like infections could pose a problem that straight couples may not experience through clumsiness...(I understand that straight couples get infections from things as well, but people who engage in what I was previously referring to have a entirely different set of health issues to deal with).
