Hello Charles,
What is the MOQ perspective on homosexuality?
It's good to have an interesting question posted which explores the
ramifications of the MoQ rather than knocking it all the time.
The MoQ deals with values and we may begin by stating that homosexuality is a
response to value or Quality. At that point in human evolution when
reproduction was essential for the survival of biological patterning, homosexuality may
have been in conflict with that basic imperative. Which begs the question,
what is in conflict?
In Lila, Pirsig suggests that the female is the one who chooses which DNA
moves on. I have noted that many women value homosexuals as friends and would not
be averse to having children by them, therefore, some women must value
homosexuality a great deal?
I have a sneaking suspicion that there is no such thing as homosexuality!
That term is a social imposition; the imposition of a male dominated culture
over the values of women! Men do not feel at all comfortable that females like
homosexuals! It is a threat to them.
So, when you ask, 'Would you say a same-sex preference lies in the biological
level, or the social level? Or perhaps some other level? i might be tempted
to suggest that comment on biological preference is a social comment.
Biologically, it's OK, ask a woman?!
All the best,
Mark
