oops!

[Jon Ford]

Michael-- Please elucidate! Neither of your statements makes that much sense 
to me, although I could well imagine if one were raised in an environment in 
which everyone  were doing straight sex and gay sex frequently and  
alternatively, or only gay sex (as in a prison), then one might get involved 
with the action-- that's simple comformity to the social norm, a common 
human trait!

I'm not sure what that has to do with priests, however, who are in an 
environment in which sex is verbotten, although they do have a lot of 
control over vulnerable youth.

Almost everyone has some opportunity for sex, but some people tend to seek 
out such opportunities more so than others. These are the persons with a 
larger "drive" for sex, be they gay or straight in their natural 
orientation. Clearly people with a "gay" orientation will tend to place 
themselves in situations where gay sex is possible, as will heterosexuals, 
unless they are very repressed  in their natural drive.
