Relationships, sex & sexuality
The Buddha didn't say anything about homosexual relationships so they decided that it's not really much different and that as long as there's the same respect level then it's chill (legends)
As sexual craving (tanha) is believed to be one of the main causes of suffering they believe sexual behaviour should be guided by kindness, generosity, honesty and awareness just like other areas of life
