Gay or hetro have exactly the same work to do. Attachment, aversion & ignorance - the rest is window dressing IMHO.

I agree. This statement is quite simple but very effective. There is one thing we can all agree on. That is, all unenlightened beings have one thing in common - suffering.

We can define our own roles in nature and a set boundaries to human behavior as "gay sex is bad since it is not reproductive" or "premarital sex is bad" or "human beings have unique duties of male & female" or "females should not ordain since it disrupts the domestic 'balance'" etc. One statement is no better or worse than the other. They are just statements based on what one individual thinks is good or bad - just subjective theories, not hard-coded facts of nature.

So, for the OP, I agree with most posters here. Sexual orientation does not matter to your practice unless you make it.
