What would such a coin toss look like for sexuality?
That’s a good point, and it made it more obvious to me what the problem is. Equalizing everyone forces them to all play the same status game, and it being zero-sum, minority groups would lose. Before, I only competed with the rest of my small community, afterwards, I compete with everyone. (See also The Melancholy of Subculture Society.)
(Incidentally, my answer is “stop the game”. As an asexual, I’d be very much opposed to being forced to play sexuality, no matter what side I ended up on.)

I also don’t think I would terribly mind becoming asexual, but again, I wouldn’t want everyone to be. (Definitely not before we have artificial uteruses, and still possibly not afterwards.)
