One more thing before I get back to Romans:
The Bible is clear about what sexual perversion is. However God leaves hetero married sex without a lot of comment. Unless you are a drunk monkey, even the animals know and practice normal sexual behavior. We MUST leave our notions that humans are animals before we decline of decay like Rome.
The original question had to do with the seemingly subjective nature of the term 'perversion.' What is considered by some to be perversion may be quite normal to others--statutory sodomy laws, for example.
In the case of the Gay Christian movement, we're discussing terms within--I presume--a biblical context, where God, creation, salvation, etc., are accepted a priori.
The discussion should then focus upon what constitutes a real perversion, from a biblical standpoint, considering the nature of God, his will for humanity, what constitutes sin versus libertarian freedom, and so on.
Just my three cents, adjusting for inflation and taxes.

Ever hear of The Uh Oh Feeling? Our children
recognized it as a warning from God to protect them
from people with inapproriate intentions toward them.
Having to define sexual perversion is like having to
explain the uh oh feeling.
On the other hand, having to explain God is a lot like
having to point out the sun. (Ray Comfort)
