If you want a more literal reading you have to show why the more literal reading makes more sense. Explain why arsenokoites means "male homosexual" in the context, when Paul could have used Porne instead, which means "prostitute". Even more damaging to your argument is the fact that Paul uses Porne twice in 1 Cor 6:15-16. Why the inconsistency?
I'm not sure if you're paying attention to what I'm saying at all. That's not at all what I'm arguing.
