If a man who thinks he is a woman sleeps with a woman who knows she is a woman, is that gay sex or straight sex? Is homosex based on one’s biology or one’s gender identity? Given transgender ideology, the LGBT community needs to rethink what it means to be gay.

We’ve traditionally defined homosexuality in terms of biology (sex), but according to gender ideology, gender is more important than sex. When it comes to defining homosexual and heterosexual, then, shouldn’t the gender identity of the sexual partners matter more than their biological sex? If so, then homosexuality should not be defined as sexual behavior between two people of the same sex, but as sexual activity between two people of the same gender. This would mean a biological man and a biological woman could be in a homosexual relationship so long as one of them has a trans identity. For example, a trans woman (a biological man who thinks of himself as a woman even though he has male sex organs) who engages in sexual activity with a biological woman would be in a homosexual relationship despite the fact that they are having normal sexual intercourse. If the only difference between heterosexual sex and homosexual sex is the beliefs of the participants, then the meaning of “heterosexual” and “homosexual” is relative.
