First off, there is no necessity to explain why God thinks male on male sex is immoral. The Bible doesn’t need to provide justification for any command. However, given that, I still do believe there is justification for it.
1. It is against the original design.
The male and female sexual organs are designed to be used together. Male on male sex is contrary to the original design.
2. It is against the original purpose.
One purpose of hetereosexual sex is the continuation of the human race. Male on male sex would not result in continuation of people.
3. It is linked to display of domination and control.
This is historically how male on male sex primarily manifested. Male on male sex was primarily not because of sexual attraction, but because of display of power of the dominating male. We even see this in prisons today.
4. It is unsafe behavior.

That men who have sex with men are at an increased risk of HIV infection is well knownMen who have sex with men are at an increased risk of sexually transmitted infection with the viruses that cause the serious condition of the liver known as hepatitis.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) occur in sexually active gay men at a high rate.
Of all the sexually transmitted infections gay men are at risk for, human papilloma virus – which causes anal and genital warts – is often thought to be little more than an unsightly inconvenience. However, these infections may play a role in the increased rates of anal cancers in gay men.

There are many reasons why gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men may have higher rates of HIV and STDs. Some of them are:
* Prevalence of HIV among sexual partners of gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men is 40 times that of sexual partners of heterosexual men;
* Receptive anal sex is 18 times more risky for HIV acquisition than receptive vaginal sex;
* Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men on average have a greater number of lifetime sexual partners.
5. Historically, male on male sex has been considered to be deviant behavior.
Homosexuality was classified as a mental disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) beginning with the first edition, published in 1952 by the American Psychiatric Association (APA).
