Ok, let’s play that hermeneutic out. Do you believe gay men should be executed (Lev. 20:13)? If not, then not all scripture carries equal inspiration and weight. The Red Letters matter more, and the rest of scripture is read through a Christ-centered lens.

Even if Jesus considered same-sex attraction to be inherently sinful, he reconciled sinners to himself *before* those people stopped being sinners. A Christ-centered reading suggests that we erect barriers Jesus did and does not.
