Where is the evidence of 'phobia' in the APA?

Nay, this is polemic rhetoric.

When it is mentioned that homosexuality is 'unnatural', it applies to various meanings. One which is r avoided here is the observation that human anatomy and physiology is inconsistent with homosexual intercourse.

As well, in general, the sexual behavior of animals are notably distinct from human behavior. Animals are driven by instincts void of freewill and intellect. Thus a dog can hump a leg, a toy, a male or female dog. In all of these instances, I assert that the intellect is absent in the dog AND actual penetration does NOT occur except with the female dog.

It seems that a great deal is lacking in the scientific and 'pseudo- scientific' research into homosexuality and its relation to culture, societal influences which serve as stimuli or catalyst for the development of homosexual preference. Gay lifestyle has become a legitimate counterculture, subculture, or a segment of the mainstream culture in many nations. Someone cited the presence of gays in Iran. Iran does NOT fulfill the minimal requirements of representing an Islamic society and therefore cannot stand as a representation thereof. The ayatullah Khomeini admitted this. As well, there has been a segment of Iran which remains highly secular, culturally and ideologically akin to Western secular culture and thinking. And this segment continues to have influence within the culture as professors, musicians, writers.
