quite brilliant minority tactic
I think you will find it represents the view of the democratic majority.

I am branded the pervert and deviant for admitting that I would be tempted to look at members of the opposite sex
By whom and where?

these victorian comments come from members of society who find my "normal" heterosexual behaviour obviously abhorrent
Who suggested this?

A few years ago someone posted a paper justifying the exclusion of homosexuals from the US forces. It received much support. Then the poster pointed it out it was a copy of the a paper issued in the 1930s to justify the exclusion of Negroes - he had just replaced the term "black" with "homosexual".

I assure you that if, in 25 years as an officer, I had had the power to get rid of racist, sexist, homophobic, bigots who disgraced their uniforms - they would have outnumbered the number of homosexuals by several factors, and we would have been far better off for it.
