"If homosexuality, sado-masochism and other degenerates were "predisposed" toward their deviancy due to their DNA, this would certainly be a recessive gene. Because their lifestyles are inherently disinclined toward procreation, these recessive genes would diminish fairly quickly over time."

Not necessarily.

Lets assume for the sake of discussion that ALL "orientations" are genetic (not that I think they are). In the case of homosexuality, bestiality and pedophilia there would be an obvious barrier to procreation, being that the object of desire is not capable of reproducing with the person.

Other kinks like S&M, foot fetishes and the ilk, that are directed at an adult person of the opposite sex would not inherently constitute a barrier to procreation, it's one step in a chain of activities.

As long as the end result is fertilization, the steps that get you there have no bearing on evolutionary pressures to remove a gene.

By your logic, all non-genital sexual contact is somehow a disadvantage to reproduction. Last time I checked, my wife preferred to kiss a little while first.
