I always wonder why TFP always fights for gay rights but when a thread like this comes along, everyone responds with a close-but-not-quite homophobic tone.

When you get right down to it, sex is mundane. Everybody does it, it happens every day. It's not really all that different from me taking a shower or brushing my teeth, except that it requires a partner and that there still seems to be a certain titillation derived from it, due to it's history as something that's forbidden in polite company.
It saddened me to hear this, though, Martian. I hope you don't mean that literally.
