You keep saying nontraditional, what the hell exactly is nontraditional about an orientation and set of behaviors that are present in multiple species including our own? There's nothing nontraditional about it, even by Western standards. There have always been LGBT people, in every time, place, and culture whether if was a welcoming one or not. I can name a couple historic figures who we have proof were gay if needed to prove my point. If you're thinking traditional as in able to marry and produce children, that would itself be incorrect. The church had a type of marriage bond that bound the two parties together as family, and it was something sought out by both gay and straight people alike during the Middle Ages. Something else I can provide proof of if you want it.
And beyond even that, your view is inherently flawed. You have no idea how many people who are Queer that you come in contact with daily, and how many may or may not find you attractive, yes, even when completely clothed. I knew an African girl while in High School who was muslim, and wore a hijab to school and conservative clothing. Her manner of dress didn't stop me being attracted to her in the least, she was nice, had a pretty face accented by the scarves, and her clothes weren't frumpy even though they were conservative. All and all she was attractive, and the only thing that kept me from asking her out was that she was religious. If she by any chance had said yes, we would have needed to be careful and that wasn't something I was prepared for at 17.
The plural of annecdote may not be data, but when actions like mine are the norm for the community that certainly says something. You're making a mountain out of nothing, and your insistence on there being something when so many people both straight and Queer in this thread are telling you differently is utter crap.
