If suddenly someone is called heterosexual - is it offensive or not very? And in general, is hetero orientation normal or some kind of sexual deviation? Let's deal with these issues.
What does “hetero orientation” mean?
It should immediately be clarified that this concept is closely related to sexuality. More precisely, with the term “heterosexuality”. The word "heterosexuality" itself has two roots. The first - hetero - means "different", "opposite", and the second root - "sexuality" - is no longer worth translating today. But just in case, you can indicate that it is emotional (romantic), sensual (erotic) or sexual desire. Thus, we can conclude that hetero orientation is sexuality aimed at people of the opposite sex. On the globe, most people and animals have this sexual orientation from nature, deviations among animals are extremely rare. But among people sometimes there are relationships that are condemned by society. In particular, it should be noted that hetero orientation is the only officially recognized sexual activity in Russia. So, to get a definition of a heterosexual person in our country at the present stage is considered not at all offensive. This happens because the hetero sexual orientation is one of the components of the sexual norm in the country.
Sexuality in antiquity
Today it is customary to talk either about heterosexuality, or about homosexuality (sexual attraction to persons of the same sex). And more and more often the topic is raised that in ancient times the last sexual orientation prevailed. But in reality, everything was quite different. Just a lot of people had an intermediate sexual orientation, the so-called bisexuality. Such sexuality did not exclude either hetero-orientation in sexual matters, or homosexuality. The most common and generally accepted bisexuality was in antiquity. Dear family fathers, having offspring and diligently caring for the continuation of their kind, did not shy away from intimate communication with people of their gender. By the way, this happened at other times, and took place in countries with fairly strict morals. But it was precisely in antiquity that she was not persecuted, which is why so many works of art have come down to us today that depict precisely the bisexual inclinations of a large number of people.
Why heterosexuality is recognized as the only correct
Many scientists have tried to uncover the mystery of human sexuality. Some were inclined to believe that all people at birth are bisexual. This was claimed, for example, by Freud and Kinsey. And supposedly during the growing up and upbringing, people forcibly adjoined a group of heterosexuals. However, if we discard the difference between a person and an animal (education, culture, mind), then the human individual will become like an animal. And here lies the answer to the most important question about natural sexuality! Is it possible to imagine that between two cocks a sexual relationship suddenly arises ? Unlikely. But what happens if another rabbit is planted in the rabbit’s cage and the rabbit’s alien rabbit is added to the rabbit? In 97%, such an experience will have sad consequences ... But planting heterosexual individuals to each other, especially during the period of the excited state of the female, will be perceived by them as we expect from them. Therefore, in animals in their midst the question of homosexuality or bisexuality practically does not arise. From this we can conclude: people came to homosexual and bisexual relations not in connection with the call of nature, but in spite of it. A hetero orientation is an instinct of procreation inherent in nature itself.
