"Discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is premised on sex-based preferences,
assumptions, expectations, stereotypes, or norms. “Sexual orientation” as a concept cannot be
defined or understood without reference to sex. A man is referred to as “gay” if he is
physically and/or emotionally attracted to other men. A woman is referred to as “lesbian” if
she is physically and/or emotionally attracted to other women. Someone is referred to as
“heterosexual” or “straight” if he or she is physically and/or emotionally attracted to someone
of the opposite-sex."
I believe this is in stark contrast to what same sex and trans persons argue. I also suspect they are not going to dispute this as it serves their interests not to.
