I support homosexual sex but don't understand all of it.

Okay, get ready for some graphic stuff. If you are turned off by homosexual sex, tune out now.

Many of the most interesting people I know are homosexual, meaning that they're sexually attracted to others of the same sex. Some of them are as committed to their partners as any married couple. Some have been with one person of the same sex for many years.

So what's up with that?

Well, I guess we humans just naturally gravitate toward others who are most in tune with us and who like us and want to be with us.

But that's not what I'm writing about here. I'm writing about -- again, the warning -- what homosexuals do "that way" with each other.

Heterosexual couples unite sexually by the male inserting his penis into the female's vagina, and both -- hopefully -- enjoy the experience. Yes, it varies with each couple and maybe with each encounter, but that's the basic plan. The ultimate goal, according to biology, is producing offspring. The more children you have, the more viable your marriage, or so we're told. It often goes awry, of course, and couples separate, leaving the children to try to figure out what went wrong.

But homosexual couples can't have children, at least not with each other, at least not in that way.
In the case of females, they can adopt or get a male to donate sperm, which is implanted in one or the other of them. Homosexual males can donate sperm to a woman, who then bears their child, or they can adopt.

In neither case does the pregnancy result from copulation with a lover.

Homosexuals do, however, have sex. Why? Well, duh. It's fun. It's one of life's great pleasures.

Homosexual females enjoy sex by stimulating each other's parts, the clitoris especially, but also by inserting fingers or whatever into the vaginas of their partners. (I once saw a video of a woman putting her whole hand into the vagina of her lover!) They also enjoy kissing and fondling and all those other activities we all love, but when it comes to the ultimate act, they either have to settle for clitoral stimulation or a simulation of the heterosexual act, meaning something like the penis -- fingers or a device -- inserted into the vagina.

For males, it gets more complicated. There are only two places to put a penis. A mouth or an anus. (No other points of entry into a human.)

Male homosexuals insert their erect penises into the the mouths of their lovers or into their anuses. I understand the first part: blowjobs are almost always welcomed by guys, whoever is giving them. (Clinton almost blew -- so to speak -- his Presidential gig over one.) It's the other option that baffles me.

I've tried to imagine how having some guy put his erect penis into my anus might feel good, but the concept somehow escapes me. I've had doctors slip their gloved fingers, coated with gel, up there -- to see if my prostate was enlarged and maybe cancerous -- but I didn't enjoy it. In fact, the doctor said, "This is the part none of us likes, but it's necessary."

The only thing I can figure out --and, again, this gets graphic (and is probably off-base)-- is that we humans do get pleasure from, say, a bowel movement. Very pleasant coming out. But the going in? Ouch! Is the male homosexual experience a combination of ouch going in and and ahh coming out?

Or do homosexual men experience penetration of the anus as enjoyable? It's not actually a sex organ and seems to have been adopted -- co-opted? -- for someone's convenience, probably the guy doing the insertion.

I'm lost here. Sorry to be so naive. Educate me. Please!

I understand very well the heterosexual sex act. The penis, the vagina, the climax, the sperm targeting the egg. (Lots of pleasure as the result but maybe also lots of children, wanted or unwanted.) And I kind of get the female homosexual sex act. In fact, lots of porno films show women doing all that stuff to each other, and men watch it, too, if only because we love to see naked women in any context, if not with us then with each other.

But men putting their dongs into other men's behinds? Hmmm . . .

That being said, and not said well, I think any couple who wants to be together should be allowed to marry and have or adopt children and live perfectly normal lives.

Bravo to the brave ones!

Still . . .
