The thing about “sodomite” or “sodomy” is that it is generally understood to refer to specific acts, regardless of the sex of the parties involved. Men who consider themselves “straight” don’t like being told they’re engaging in sodomy.

Precisely. It's behavior.

Even secular criminal law addressed sodomy (or “addresses” it, it may be unenforceable but still on the books) as behavior, not as identity or orientation. It’s defined in TN as anal or oral intercourse with a man or a woman, or any sexual relations between a human being and an animal.
