the kafuffle isn't about him finding it gross - the kafuffle is about him saying it - particularly in a debate about homosexual rights and protests etc.
it matters not about personal likes or dislikes ----------- for me, I don't actually find AI gross (in heterosexual or homosexual groups), what I find is that it's difficult to manage the hygiene and luckily I've had all of my partners who don't like AI either - which suits me fine because I've got no desire for it (I'm strongly heterosexual)
but, individual desires and behaviours are irrelevant in the societal level of things ------------- very clearly AI is very popular (normal) - in heterosexual society and in homosexual male society ---
only disputed by ignorant buffoons who don't read at all
Latham was wrong to say what he said ----------- no matter if it's gross to him or not. All he actually did was to prove that he IS a disgusting person
