This is embarrassing. Did you never have sex ed? When discussing sexual intercourse involving a penis, the person whose penis is inserted is called the insertive partner, and the person whose mouth/anus/vagina is receiving the penis is called the receptive partner.
Colloquially,
Isn't colloquial terminology the subject of this discussion?
a person may receive a blowjob, but in scientific terminology he would be the insertive partner in the sex act being described, whether it is fellatio, anal intercourse or vaginal intercourse.
Absolutely no one talks like that, including the scientists, who immediately after writing with that terminology turn around and discuss "getting" blowjobs.
Thus, the person who "sucks" is the person who is at the "receptive end of intercourse".
Only if they do it right.
I explained the so what right before the sentence you chose to quote. Ie. that this is so deeply embedded into our language, and that it therefore constitutes the "casual homophobia" the author is referring to.
Divine revaluation by whose standards? Can you prive its divinity in a court of law? If not, why is your divine revelation more valid than that of another?
Also, why does a moral tradition from prehistory carry more weight? We don't even know if there was prehistoric tradition of opprobrium over homosexuality, but even if there was, we are not in prehistory, we are in the now.
Because it is in prehistoric sources, like the stories compiled in the Book of Genesis.
The point of the antiquity of tradition is that it is a viable and functional mode of action and has been for a long time. We know one way works. We have no proof that political correctness is a viable practice, just the unsupported speculation that it will be more beneficial.
Why do you have to call out any specific person's homosexuality for the comparison to matter?
To put it another way, would your assessment of this article as another permutation of virtue signaling have been different if the author didn't specifically refer to people who committed the "sin" he's discussing, but instead just generally stated his opinions on it?
Yes. Because he's pulling it out of his ass. That's his point - "Look how awesome my ass is! It produced this!" I am not the one responsible for any of my moral positions. Therefore I am only virtue signalling on behalf of Holy Mother Church and the highest moral traditions of Western Civilization.
It wouldn't be your business even if they were,
unless they did it in front of you. In that unlikely event, would it even matter if the act was homosexual or heterosexual in nature? If it does matter, what is your rationale for the acceptance of public heterosexual sex, but not homosexual acts?
They're way hotter.
Neither is the author of the article. He is condemning the means by which some people are criticizing/making fun of Trump/Arpaio. At no point does he say their underlying position is invalid because of the "sin" they commit in the way they express it.
No, he's saying that their positions on homosexual privilege are incongruous with their use of idiom. In other words, he's saying that if they were really devout practitioners of political correctness, they would not blaspheme agaisnt the Holy Homos by using such language.
Well, they don't differentiate from phobia, but leaving that aside, your post clearly states that while you think heterosexual intercourse is alright in some contexts, such is not your view on homosexual intercourse. Are you not sanctimoniously labeling the behavior of others as a sin, here, while signaling other behavior as virtuous?

Cannoli is right: "sucks" implies the active party in oral sex

That's individuals policing speech, not society. Agregate individual action =/= collective action
