Ever seen those fundies who just won't stop talking about the intricacies of gay sex? Same thing. Our society is so fixated on sex and the mechanics of sex that the idea of someone who actually doesn't care about the mechanics or the gender blows people's minds. I used to have a buddy who would judge women by whether their vagina was ugly, the idea that someone not only doesn't care about that but doesn't even care whether their partner has a penis or vagina is just completely alien to them.
