I'd imagine also that sexual desire can exist without aesthetics... at least to an extent. After all a lot of women I've known say (and I cannot disagree, but I'm biased) that a man's junk is the ugliest thing in the known universe... and yet still have sex with men.
With few exceptions the gay men I know can appreciate that certain women are physically attractive just not to them.

I however find nothing whatsoever attractive about a man's body.

That said one of my best gay friends who has been in a relationship with the same guy for decades confided to me that, at first, he couldn't see anything attractive about his partner. In fact he thought he was "yucky" but after several months their friendship turned to love "overnight" and now he thinks he's the most beautiful man alive.

Attraction's a complex thing for sure.
