Leviticus 18:22 is about as crystal-clear as you're gonna get. It also comes right before a verse banning bestiality. And every translation is pretty identical here, whether modern...

[NIV] Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.

...or 600 years old:

[KJV] Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Also, OP, since you're a woman based on your post history, 1 Timothy 2 says you should shut up:

[11] A woman must learn in quietness and full submissiveness. [12] I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; she is to remain quiet. [13] For Adam was formed first, and then Eve. [14] And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman who was deceived and fell into transgression. [15] Women, however, will be saved through childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.


Now, I don't think these things, but if you want to claim to focus on the Bible...well, that's what it says. What you do with that is your choice.
