Homosexuality probably needs no more
explanation than heterosexuality.
Both kinds of sexual responses arose in the same way
—sexual imprinting at an early age, probably before age 20.
As most people are imprinted with heterosexual sex-scripts,
some people are imprinted with homosexual sex-scripts.
(And, as said before, some people have more than one sex-script.
People aroused by both sexes sometimes call themselves “bisexual”.)
As sexology progresses thru the 21st century,
more will be discovered about the mechanisms of sexual imprinting.
And better understanding of human sexuality might explain the ‘causes’
of both heterosexual sex-scripts and homosexual ones.

FANTASIES: A NEW KEY FOR
SEXOLOGY by JAMES PARK
But probably most processes of imprinting cannot be
reconstructed:
We grow up knowing that we are either right-handed or left-handed;
and we have always known we are either girls or boys;
and we speak our native language automatically,
without any recollection of how we acquired it.
Just as we do not remember the processes of these forms of imprinting,
we usually do not remember our moments of sexual imprinting.
If further research in sexology confirms the sex-script hypothesis,
the question of the ‘origin’ of either large collection of sex-scripts
will be resolved by better understanding of all sexual imprinting.
