Homosexuality in Buddhism
As homosexuality is not explicitly mentioned in any of the Buddha's discourses, we can only assume
that it is meant to be evaluated in the same way that heterosexuality is. And indeed it seems that
this is why it is not specifically mentioned. In the case of the lay man and woman where there is
mutual consent, where adultery is not involved and where the sexual act is an expression of love,
respect, loyalty and warmth, it would not be breaking the third Precept. And it is the same when
the two people are of the same gender.
