This doesn't make much sense to me. Priests take a vow of chastity/abstenance. So it doesn't really matter which sex he is sexually attracted to, it's supposed to be hands-off.

But you must remember that a Priest is called "Father" for a reason. He is supposed to be a father to his flock. I would question the ability of someone who is homosexual adequately act this role. It seems to me that an inclination towards procreation is a necessary condition of fatherhood.

But if you're not having sex you're functionally ASEXUAL, not homosexual or heterosexual.
