I think a big part of it was that I had some problems producing testosterone, so I really just wasn't horny. I had to start taking shots at about age 16, and it was a while after that before I started masturbating. Boy did that change everything.

A fundamental problem that many Christian conservatives have (not necessarily all Christians, as I always believed in the theory of evolution when I was active in the faith) is that many/most don't believe in the TOE. If you honest and truly believe that a man was created out of dirt, and a woman was created out of the rib of that first man...and that is why/how ''marriage'' came to be, with one man and a woman ...then, you will have very archaic views as to homosexuality, etc. Creationists more than likely, will not accept homosexuality, because you really can't accept homosexuality as 'normal,' if you believe that God created one man, one woman to procreate, etc. So, it's not just a matter of someone being a bigot, but rather their entire understanding of biology is fucked up at its core.
For lack of a better phrase. lol To understand science, and the fundamentals of biology, one has to denouce Creationism, and most Christian conservatives believe in Creationism. Even if some claim to believe in the TOE, they can't believe it completely and fully, because there are too many tenets that contradict either school of thought. 
Is not any bigot's understanding flawed or fucked up in some way? If you choose to live by a certain philosophy or backwards belief, that doesn't excuse the belief.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Are you sure your birth parents weren't from Krypton? Honestly I haven't been the healthiest person in the world growing up, and a number of things don't work the way they should. I wasn't a horny teen. I needed to take shots, and at one point they stopped getting me shots because I became too aggressive. Or at least too aggressive to my dad's liking, since he doesn't take disobedience too well.

I don't think that claims as much credit as not being inquisitive. Otherwise, you would have asked them to at least describe orgasm. Probably 0.o Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam

If I ever asked them about it, they'd just run off to get their friends to hear me repeat that I didn't know what an orgasm was, or what "spank my monkey" meant, and laugh at me. Not that these were supposed to be my friends. It was just guys that liked to hang around and mock me because I was a shrimpy loser. The kind of guys that would steal my ball in gym just to take it away, despite their being a rack of them nearby.

The world without internet is kind of weird. Google's too good to us.

Lol, yeah, we didn't exactly use the internet when I was in school. My family didn't actually get it until I was about 20. Things have changed so much.
