According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, what causes homosexuality? How do they go about treating it? What are there views on it?
Please paste links with your comments if information is from a website.
I heard it was a result of yang deficiency and something about the kidneys and loss of jing from this website, but now I can't find that website!
Please note: I am not against homosexuality, it is just that I am interested in learning about the TCM view of it.
Thank you.

He who fishes in another man's well often catche crabs
Man who lie down with dog get fleas
Man who stick dick in peanut butter jar is f..king nuts
Man with hand in pocket feel cocky all day
Man who go to bed with itchy butt wake with smelly finger
Man who sleep with sex problem wake up with solution in hand

Ancient Chinese Medicine has a written recorded history of 5000 years. Archeologists claim that the history goes back even 7000 years. The Huang-Di Nei-Jing (Yellow Emperor’s Cannon of Internal Medicine) is one example and probably the oldest medical text in the world. Think about this: The Chinese had already established the writing nd had advanced medical knowledge 5000 years ago! Here is a link to the pdf. I hope everyone can read it and enlighten to what it has to offer. http://www.five-element.com/graphics/neijing.pdf

Not really anything. Like most traditional medicine, it is based largely on tradition (funny how that works). They do it because they are told that they do it. In the end it boils down to a long history of trial and error coated in superstition and religion. Some of it does work (mostly just some herbs), but their reasoning as to why it works is nonsense. Someone tried it and it worked. Someone later came up with an explanation.

I'm not familiar with any TCM theory concerning homosexuality. I don't know of anyone "treating" homosexuality with TCM. Most Western acupuncturists that I know do not view it as a disease process.
