I remember reading an article a very long time ago (back when homosexuality was still considered a mental illness by the psychiatric community) that said that perversion, including homosexuality, was in part an addiction to the excitement (i.e. adrenaline, etc.) involved in doing something your brain considers "taboo."

Fast forward to a few years ago, a family friend told me that her brother, a homosexual, confessed that gays liked the thrill of these "clandestine" hookups because they brought back the extremely elevated sensations they remember when they first entered the "perverted" lifestyle. This brought to mind the deep-seated hunger that drug addicts have to recreate the high they experienced when they first started using.

Before the psychiatric community cowered under LGBTQ pressure, it was IIRC regularly said that "homosexuality" was nothing more than a perverted form of sexual addiction.
