Male-female intercourse significantly increases your chance of dying in childbirth. Is that destructive?

To be fair, that is a false equivalency. 15,000+ Americans die a year from AIDS. 700 die from childbirth. AIDS is 20x the bigger killer than childbirth.

The attack on homosexuality was not based on the degree of harm.

Regardless, at one time, 4% of all women died in childbirth - a direct consequence of heterosexual sex. That is far more than people who die from homosexual sex, yet no one sought to prove that marital procreative sex was immoral because of this.
