From najrboe's reply:

>some of those preferences are going to have a genetic reason for them

It's hard coded for you, that's understood. The argument is that it's silly to have a distinguisher for everything that doesn't fit into society's majority notions, or for everything that falls outside a "normal" range (or, what we perceive to be normal, even if it's not a true reflection of the average population). Everybody has preferences that help them function-- some preferences have a genetic basis, others don't, but in either case preferences help people function and it would be productive to shift the notions held by society that being flexible towards such preferences is going to lead to a happier populace.
