If you don't deny the fact that there is an abundance of biological anomalies, flaws, and mutations (which there are) regarding every aspect of human beings then you can't rightly deny the possibility that if sexual attraction is a biological mechanism, that it can't "malfunction" biologically.

I haven't heard of any scientific study that suggests this.
I would definitely reconsider my opinion if there was some evidence of course, but personally I have yet to hear of any.

Assuming that homosexuality is strictly a social/environmental construct is to contradict the fact that sexuality is biological to begin with.

I do not think any biological changes happen when a person decides or discovers they are gay. I think their mindset changes and that is all, yet I also feel like that is enough. No biological or instinctual changes needed.
I fail to see how that contradicts.
EDIT:
TO MAKE MY POINT MORE CLEAR
I feel like a mindset change is enough for a person to feel they are gay and to want the same sex, ultimately smothering out their instinctual feelings.
