On The Denial of Human Sexuality from The Manifesto Thumpers

I thought that a few questions which have been knocking around in my head this morning might make good discussion fodder.

The Left accuses the Right of being homophobic, but is this just the typical projection in which they engage: could it be that they are really heterophobic?
Consider the condescension with which The Left greets a woman who decides to express her sexuality by: having children (“breeder”), or housekeeping (“slave to gender roles”), or simply by trying to make herself attractive to men (“a woman needs a man like a bicycle needs a fish”).
Consider the condescension with which The Left greets a man who decides to express his sexuality by: pursuing a woman's interest (“sexual harassment”, “potential rapist”), or competitiveness (“predator”), or sports (“stupid jock”), or protecting his family (“patriarchy”).

The Left likes to argue that a rejection of homosexuality is a rejection of the human condition.
And while I agree, I would also like to point out that The Left's rejection of heterosexuality is not only *also* a rejection of the human condition, but as a matter of species propagation a rejection of a much more important and necessarily statistically more common aspect of the human condition.
So, which is worse?

Consider also that the Left abhors “reparative therapy”, yet daily through its media The Left bombards society with the sexual roles and mores which it prefers in hopes that such bombardment will sway opinion.
To be clear, I am not making a case for “reparative therapy”.
My point is that if The Left truly believes that sexuality can not conditioned, then it can stop its tiresome agitation.

Which, of course, it won't.
Manifesto thumpers gonna thump.

    Because if you come to my 85% liberal neighborhood, you think you won't find a bunch of kids from heterosexual families who are obsessed with hockey...

    You wanna read something really crazy? Here's a blog post from a radical feminist (RADFEM) who claims that all male-on-female sexual intercourse is automatically rape, even if the woman wants sex and willingly consents to it:

    radical wind – PIV is always rape, ok?

    I consider myself a big supporter of equal rights for women, but some people can definitely take it too far, and it's crazy people like this who make me want to avoid calling myself a "feminist."
