In ninety-nine percent of cases the other type of problem arises -- we fall in love with the opposite type of person. In fact that is real heterosexuality. It is not only a question of a man falling in love with a woman; it is really two polarities falling in love with each other.
That's why I am not in favour of homosexual tendencies -- because they are egoistic. You are falling in love with somebody who is just like you -- a man or a woman: a woman falling in love with a woman or a man falling in love with a man. That is very egoistic and juvenile, immature.

But now there is a problem. They have fallen in love -- that's okay -- but they are so different that they never meet anywhere. She lives a very instinctive life, temperamental;
