The human civilisations have, for the past several thousands of years confused Gender with Sexual behaviour (not preferences or desires), by equating manhood with reproduction, and indirectly to penetrating women. So much so that the 'ability' to penetrate a woman became synoymous with being a man, and inability to do so classified a male as third gender. Thus Gender (masculinity) was confused with Sex act (penetration).
Then for at least the past 2,500 years, third gender or effeminacy in males (Gender) has been defined as the act of receiving anal penetration (Sex act). So, much so that by the end of the middle ages, male femininity became synonymous with the act of receiving anal sex... and conversely, the act of receiving penetration from men became a feminine trait. Thus again, through artificial engineering, the society started to confuse Gender with Sex acts.
The Western society manipulated these definitions further and started to define manhood as "sexual desire for women" and third gender as "sexual desire for men". The first they called heterosexuality, and the second 'homosexuality'.
The early Western scientists like Freud, who were too obssessed with the age-old concept of mixing Gender with Sex (and now Sexuality), that e.g. Freud considered the sexual desire in men for other men to be a part of their femininity that they have not been able to suppress. It should be noted that in non-Western contemporary societies, as well as in pre-modern West, a sexual desire for men (except a desire for receptive anal sex) was not considered feminine. But, Freud set the path for the current Western mindset that considers sexuality between men to be feminine. Thus, Freud has done a great disservice to not only science, but to the 'man'kind in general.
The West has taken this misrepresentation of facts to unbelievable heights and build an entire system of theories on sexuality, based upon it.
