I honestly do a agree with a lot of this even if you don't feel like you can agree with me!
This is why I said a wholesale rethinking of desire, eros and relationships is needed within Christianity. Simply grafting same-sex couples into the heterosexual mould excludes many queer lifestyles -- and, like you said, effectively neuters us in public life. A helpful look at this would be in something like The Trouble With Normal.
A liberative queer Christian praxis could therefore look like (in some theologies) indecent sexual practices and their public acknowledgement.
