Perhaps "practicing homosexual" would be concise enough since they practice perversion.
The original poster had it right. There is no such thing as a homosexual or a heterosexual. There is only behavior.
You find that if you actually debate this issue with 'gay men', taking this tactic really throws them and makes them mad. You're, in effect, telling them that they are imaginary creatures. Then you can bring the subject back to their behavior and misuse of their sexual organs.
The mythological creatures known as the homosexual and the heterosexual, later termed 'gay' and 'straight', are the creations of modern clinical psychology, primarily Kinsey.
If you adopt the enemy's words and concepts, you have handed him a subtle weapon with which to deflect you.

Oh, I wholeheartedly agree! That wasn't my point.
The problem is that we need to adopt more concise phraseology to counter the skewed phraseology so often used to great advantage by the Left, i.e., "choice", "women's liberation", "feminism", "progressives", "homophobia", and the like.
Here's a really good Freepers thread highlighting a representative list: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1115231/posts
Unfortunately, in our time of fast-paced media clips, creating our own to-the-point phraseology can only help us in countering these leftist tongue twisting socialists lacking a soul.
