Sexuality cannot be directly measured; its consequences can however be observed. Gender, operating the same way cannot be directly measured, its consequences however can be observed.

Your argument suffers from assuming essentialism - the error of reifying your personal ontology. That's a misalignment between you on one side and facts, nature, science, and reality on the other.

But back to the sensitivity and specificity for the test you're describing, what are they?

You’re just wrong and determined, apparently. I just don’t know what to say to someone who doesn’t think it is possible to empirically verify that some people have a homosexual orientation.

An HN commenter like yourself who thinks this is simply mistaken by definition, just as a man who thinks he is a dog or a cat is mistaken by definition. This is not to say we should not have compassion for people who believe they are right about this and try to help them.

I'm sorry that you are simply unable to change your mind. I hope you get the care you need.
