Because it is not natural for this type of behaviour in the eyes of the majority ! Man and woman can create life but gay's can't.

Deviance can BEST be defined as any?
Deviance can best defined as any departure from the commonly societal norm. It should be noted that what a psychologist or sociologist considers to be deviant, is not always viewed as negative, and the concept is used by social scientists in a totally different way that by most. A good example of this would be homosexuality or cross dressing, these behaviors are "deviant" in that they deviate from the societal norm, but they are not considered to be negative or harmful things by most clinicians or researchers.

List those acts that are deviant but legal and illegal?
"Deviant" is any act of a person that is different from the accepted norms of a society. What is deviant, depends on the customs of a given society: think for instance of homosexuality, accepted in one society and forced underground in another society. The same goes for the question of what is legal and what is not: laws are different in each country and in the US, in each State . You do not mention what country you are talking about and your teacher probably gave you a list that you did not include. So you will have to figure this out for yourself.

What do sociologist mean when they deem homosexuality deviant?
Possibly means the sociologist has their own agenda when it comes to homosexuality. Just as you wouldn't pay attention to a strict vegetarian or vegan when they give their opinion on eating meat, or as you would ignore a person who eats only meat when they advise you not to eat vegetables, so you don't pay attention to an alleged expert who believes they're qualified to decide what forms of generally accepted human behaviour - accepted before human recorded history - are deviant. Deviant defines a person whose behaviour is different from what some people consider socially acceptable. This is strictly a personal opinion and nothing to do with what a sociologist might or might not have learned in college. Deviance is defined in sociology as a behaviour that goes against the norms (being a specific expression of a value, such getting a well paid job, this being an expression of the value of wealth) and values (being what is valued by society, such as wealth) of society. So if the society you live in values the Heterosexual Nuclear Family (1 mum and 1 dad plus kids) then in that society, then yes homosexuality is deviant. But if you look at another society you will find that the values are different, therefore homosexuality may not be deviant. As you can see it really all a matter of norms and values of the society that you live in. For example, in the UK homosexuality would not be considered deviant, but if you go to the Israel you will find that it is. I hope that this is an objective (not biased, as sociologist attempt to separate themselves from the society they wish to study (positivism), although it has been argued that this is impossible (interpretivism)) answer, but I cannot guarantee it. As has been said before it is all very subjective (biased based on opinion, theory or belief) Make up your own mind.

What is your point of view on homosexuality?
If it is between two consenting adults and they are not trying to infulence their lifestyle on others, then I have absolutely no problem with it. == Homosexuality is not a lifestyle, as many think. Homosexuality should be treated as a deviant form of sexuality, which occurs in animal kingdom too. == Homosexuality is a lifestyle as well as a sexual preference. There is nothing wrong with it as well as there is nothing wrong with heterosexuality. Both are preferences that the body reacts to in a physical way some preferences we are born with. Both should be respected and treated equally. === === I believe that male and female humans were specifically and biologically made to have relationships with only eachother. Therefore Homosexuality should be treated as a secondary form of sexuality but not in the mainstream sense of overall sexuality.
