I don't want to hear what people divinely-guided by the Holy Spirit said. I'm only concerned with what Jesus said.

He didn't. But it's understood that when a person spoke of sexual immorality at that time, that homosexuality was covered.
And yes, Jesus did speak of sexual immorality several times.

No-one can answer this question as only Jesus
knows, since the bible was written by man it
is just a guide and we will never know if what
was written that Jesus said this or that is true.
Opinions vary from the human aspect of it but
when one reads the bible it guides you in the
direction as to how one should live, and since
no one on earth is perfect no one on earth
will live according to the guidelines of the bible
a hundred percent.

Jesus is forgiving. In the context of the New Testament there is no record of Jesus saying anything about homosexuality.

Jesus never mentioned it. Paul wrote of it in Romans 1:26 and there is reference to it in 1 Corinthians 6:9 again by Paul. I have no comment.

Jesus never said anything. There are several passages in Leviticus (the Hebrew Bible) and one in Romans (NT) that cover homosexuality, but there is no record of Jesus saying anything. This does mean that he didn't have an opinion of it one way or the other, simply that we have no record of his thoughts on the matter. It is dangerous to assume one way or another.
If you are looking for specific answers on this (is it right or wrong?), I would recommend searching yourself for what feels right to you. It is very hard to truely believe something that feels wrong to its very core.

Not discussed by Jesus, He just told us to Love one another, among other beautiful things. At least, not discusssed by Jesus in my Bible. The word homosexuality is not mentioned by Jesus.

Its not what He said, but what He didn't say. The Great commandment of Jesus is to Love one another, not f*** one another. You will notice that he never disagreed with God's urban renewal program for Sodom and Gomorah.

The Bible does not record Jesus ever speaking on the subject.

No one can tell you what Jesus actually said, but 4 billion people can tell you what they hope he said. Personally, I think Jesus didn't know about homosexuality. If someone was caught being gay 2000 years ago, they were stoned to death. So I imagine there wasn't too many gay communities. People today are still afraid to admit it, based on what people will think. I hope Jesus was gay, that would make the whole thing about him being a virgin into his thirties make a lot more sense.

Jesus didn't say anything about homosexuality. He also didn't say people shouldn't have sex with female bears. He just kind of figured people were smart enough to know better.
