Humans are sexual beings We must be in order to continue our species But sexuality

Humans are sexual beings. We must be in order to continue our species. But sexuality is as varied as individuals. Throughout modern history, the dominant Western view has been that heterosexuality is normal and all other expressions of sexuality are abnormal.  It wasn’t until 1973 that the American Psychological Association stopped listing homosexuality as a mental illness. Yet, many cultures across centuries include multiple sexual identities as normal. Recently, there has been increasing awareness that people can be other than heterosexual males or heterosexual females. At the same time, social activism around sexual identity has achieved significant milestones. In 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in United States v. Windsor that same-sex marriage was protected under the Due Process clause of the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
