The term homosexual act can be applied to any erotic interaction between persons of the same sex.
Attitudes towards such acts vary, subjectively, from culture to culture, and from individual to individual. Socially liberal individuals cite references to and records of sexual relations between persons of the same sex in almost every human civilization throughout history. They would argue that this makes the acts acceptable.
However, such acts are forbidden by religious texts such as the Bible and the Qur'an. These support the idea that a subjective cultural imprimatur of acceptability does not save the objective immorality of the act.
