“Mismatched” sexuality


Your second leader (The Tablet, 1 August) quotes the Catechism word “disordered” with reference to homosexuality. I prefer its synonym “mismatch” when referring to gender and orientation. Using a word without pejorative baggage is a clearer starting point for assessing the moral status of homosexual acts.
