Rach, what makes a man more gay: enjoying and desiring sex with men, or falling in love and wanting to be with men?
There is a joke in my social group, and far beyond it (perhaps limited to guys in my age group, in my area of the world, but probably not), about how if you get a ** from a guy, you're not gay, or if you pitch, you're not gay. Personally I've felt that your sexual orientation has more to do with who you could fall in love with and be with, and feel jealousy about, but then maybe we shouldn't call it "sexual orientation."
Very interesting question. The US psychiatrist Dr. Fritz Klein created the "Klein Sexual Orientation Grid (KSOG)" as a system of describing a person's sexual orientation. The KSOG takes into consideration seven different variables: sexual attraction, sexual behavior, sexual fantasies, emotional preference, social preference, lifestyle, and self-identification.
