Why do some straight people say, "It's ok to be gay, but not ok to have gay sex."?

Is it because they don't want to look ignorant by ignoring all the overwhelming scientific evidence that says that homosexuality is normal for a minority of people, but still want to hold onto their beliefs?

Like, saying homosexuality is abnormal would make them look ignorant because of all the evidence that says they're wrong in saying that, but still think it's abnormal themselves, so they negotiate the 2 and try to meet in the middle?
 
For the same reason that a person would say, "It's okay to be black, but not okay to sit in the front of the bus if you are." It's bigotry, plain and simple.
 
probably b/c christians are accepting of homosexuals (some christians) but think that it is not right act on it. like you can think something bad, but not to it. like w/stealing. or cheating. or lying. or doing drugs.
 
They're Christians, most likely, but not exactly homophobic. Sexual repression is nothing new or especially shocking from them, its not even really a contradictory thing to say.

The proper response is: "that's nice, but I don't share you're beliefs, so I'll screw if I want to."
 
Its a learned behaviour. They're control freaks, their way or the highway.
