I didn’t say that sexuality is entirely shaped by this, only that it’s influenced. Say, when I read that hourglass-shaped women bodies are supposed to be attractive, I started noticing that I think I’m attracted to that, although one can argue that I used to be before I read it, so I only started noticing that. However, it worked for me for other things, many of which are not liked by many people.
In our society the consensus seems to be it doesn’t quite work like that, at least when it comes to things like say homosexuality.
