Your concern seems to be that unless there exists a sufficiently strong social prejudice against that sort of thing, then anyone who feels that way inclined may indeed act on their desires. I agree: If it isn't banned then the people who want to do it, will do it. The most overoptimistic estimates I've seen of the number of gay and bisexual people in the general population are that 10% of people are gay and 20% are bisexual, while more conservative estimates place the combined totals at 10%, 5%, or 2.5%. So we're not talking about the majority of people wanting to try it out. And we're not talking about schools actively encouraging kids to do so as part of an intentional policy.
