There are no clear answers to these questions, Keith, but I would like to
mention, one is either master of one's body, or one is not. That is a
question of personal religion. As for the communal aspect of avoidance of
homosexuality: one is either loyal to one's extended family (which after all
is just an extension of personal love to the nth degree) and assumes
responsibility for procreation of one's family or one does not. There are
real ramifications for those who do not master their bodies and those who do
not care about their families to the nth degree. In the one case they are
dominated by physical desires and in the other they become extinct.
