Sorry, but I disagree. You may not like the current definition of homosexuality, but every dictionary I've looked at defines it as being attracted to those of the same sex, not just engaging in sexual intercourse with those of the same sex. Language is the mechanism by which we choose to communicate, and I believe that standards are necessary to communicate accurately. Now maybe you believe that all dictionaries have been taken over by leftist whackos, but I'm a little more realistic.

It depends on what the definition of "is" is.

The realism you seek may be found on DU....
