HOMOSEXUALITY is not a mental illness and cannot be cured or prevented. Homosexuality has been a part of this world since the beginning. it did and still does exist in nature so how can you say it is "un-natural"? I have never understood that.
Sexual orientation== one's natural preference in sexual partners; predilection for homosexuality, heterosexuality, or bisexuality.
Sexual deviation can mean so many things, are you talking about anal sex, sadomasochism, golden showers or a dirty Sanchez? For some people doggie style is perverted. Just to be clear PEDOPHILIA IS NOT THE SAME AS HOMOSEXUALITY.
"no one is certain of the cause of pedophilia and other sexual deviations"
par•a•phil•i•a
—n. Psychiatry.
a type of mental disorder characterized by a preference for or obsession with unusual sexual practices, as pedophilia, sadomasochism, or exhibitionism. Also called sexual deviation.
PERVERSION, SEXUAL [perversion, sexual] in psychology, sexual behavior deemed pathological by its deviation from "normal" sexual desire. The definition of sexual perversion has shifted considerably over time: indeed, it has never been an uncontested category of meaning. For example, homosexual desire has long been stigmatized as sexual perversion among many segments of Western society (and remains so among some), but within the field of psychology, it is no longer considered pathological. Use of the term perversion itself has come under wide criticism in recent years. Today, psychologists generally refer to nontraditional sexual behavior as sexual deviation or, in cases where the specific object of arousal is unusual, as paraphilia. There are a number of recognized disorders of this type. In fetishism, the object of sexual desire is either an inanimate object or a nongenital part of the human anatomy. Voyeurism involves the covert viewing of other individuals who are naked, undressing, or engaged in sexual activity, as the primary means of sexual arousal. Sexual arousal as a result of physical contact with prepubescent children is described as pedophilia. Other forms of sexual deviation include exhibitionism, incest, transvestism, necrophilia, sadism, and masochism. Many of these behaviors, when they involve the participation of nonconsenting adults (or children, consenting or not), are punishable by law. Although rape is not classified as a paraphilia, it is a serious sexual deviance, and perhaps the most highly reviled form of sexual gratification. Most forms of sexual deviance are accompanied by any number of other psychological disorders.

What does it matter what 2 people do behind closed doors? If they love each other and they're not hurting you or others, let it be!
(I've heard of many an animal having homosexual tendencies, so are we supposed to find them and cure them also?)

With my limited knowledge I have concluded that it is difficult if not impossible to change.
