“600% increase in 10 years”
I never went with the "born this way" argument, even in my more Leftwing youth.
If homosexuality was so rampant in prisons, then whatever genetic factors cause it, does not suggest that the behavior of specific instance or instances is genetic. A crackhead doesn't suck dick for money because he's a genuine homosexual. Also, if gay men can be in straight relationships for years because their interest is from genetic influence, then it shows that there's going to be some numbers of straight men that are in homosexual relationships out of social conditioning or pressures.
That's what you're really seeing here.
First: straight men being told that their desire for emotional attachments with women in order to be sexually attracted to them is not "being normal and straight", but is instead "anromantic demisexuality" (I didn't make that up).
Second: there's going to be a large number of straight men that have been told "Being pansexual just means that you'll have sex with anyone of any sexuality" and them thinking "Okay, well, I'm going to just do that" because they are men and aren't sorting out their partner's sexualities first. They also have zero homosexual experiences during the entire time they are "pansexual".
Third: the data itself is being collected under social coercion. If you want to not be confronted with negative institutional pressures, or you want an incentive you would otherwise not get, you can identify as any sexuality (including anromantic demisexual), and no once can actually disprove you. Thus, corrupting the data.
Fourth: there is a genetic component to homosexuality. It never seems to drift past a few percentage points. These are homosexuals that actually don't have any interest in the other sex, and have only had homosexual sexual experiences, and have no response to the other sex's secondary sexual characteristics, and sometimes have a disgust reaction to them. These are the gays you take to conversion therapy, and they do a musical about how they won't be tempted to be gay (again, I didn't make that one up either). Everyone past 1-3% is probably straight, and those numbers don't ever seem to change.
We saw under covid that even DEATHS are manipulated easily. Good luck with anything more nuanced
