They're both deviant behavior in that they fall out of the "norm" for society. Arguably, though, being gay is no longer deviant as it is considered acceptable behavior by most of society. It's like being left-handed. This was once considered deviant and a sign of or precursor to other deviant behaviors. Now we know some people are just left handed and we, for the most part, no longer try to force them to live their lives right-handed. Hmm...

Anyways, the fact that they're both considered deviant does not mean they are the same. It would be like suggesting anxiety and schizophrenia were the same thing because they're both mental illnesses.
