Do you agree that 'adult-adult-hetersexual' is the only orientation that has obvious evolutionary benefit? If so then every other orientation does not. There is no 'equivocation' there is only 'why would anything else exist?'. My contention is 'who knows?', but if you accept that one orientation without evolutionary benefit exists, then why would you be confused that another different one also exists? It is not 'homosexuals and pedophiles are the same'.

I like this question because you explicitly ask me to agree with your premise that pedophiles and gay people are equivalent within your framing of this discussion and then follow it up with “my contention is something other than what I’ve clearly explained”

Ok. I am addressing a very specific question by a person above me. I am trying to illustrate that if non-normative sexualities exist in one instance, then why be surprised in multiple instances. Take that as you will.

I appreciate you clarifying that your reason for positing that pedophilia and homosexuality are equivalent is that you were responding to something that you saw online.

This shows a profound misunderstanding of evolution and natural selection on your part. "Evolutionary benefit" is impossible to divorce from circumstances. It doesn't exist as some right/wrong answer, or something you can divine through logic.

For instance, same-sex attraction could absolutely be advantageous to a species that is nearing the peak of sustainable population numbers. All species (who can fuck) wanna fuck, and will do so no matter their surrounding circumstances. The difference between one species keeping sustainable numbers, versus another species seeing runaway population numbers causing food source exhaustion and population collapse, could come down to lower procreation rates, in which circumstance strict heterosexuality may not be advantageous.

Point being, stop trying to use bad, dime-store "science" to justify your bad opinions about homosexuality.
