I understand your logic, it does seem like a lot of men and women don't even like each other. Gay couples and lesbian couples may have more in common with each other.

I knew I was straight when I was around 10/11. I see other women as being "too similar" to myself, which is a turn off. I have all their same parts. Most hetero people agree with this. That's why we're hetero. It's not "just conditioning".

I don't think the ideal relationship has to be gay, I can imagine a hetero relationship which is equal and very satisfactory. But it's hard to come by. And the mass media and porn have made things even worse. Many straight people just see "that's the man and that's the woman" instead of two human beings.
