Also did he forget about shaving or cutting his hair?

No, I am not a Hindu, but based on my understanding of Hindu culture, the nation of India, and the complexities that come from within one of the largest major religions on the planet and its connections to the largest democracy on the planet, while it is technically not wrong based on certain Hindu texts to be a homosexual, it is widely considered to be a wrong among practicing Hindus and Indians alike. Much opposition comes from tradition rather than from the texts themselves. Even the likes of Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., and FDR were opposed to homosexual rights, largely because that was the kind of culture that they grew up in.
I don't mean this in any flame-worthy capacity at all, but consider who you're preaching to. Unless you have a deeper understanding of the Sutras than an actual Hindu from India, don't talk as if you have greater academic authority over his own religion than he does.
And come on man, sure you might disagree with him ideologically, but there's no reason to kick him while he's down. Let his 3-day ban pass, and then you two can get back to butting heads.

The Justice Department declined a request from Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Ala., Tuesday night to intervene for him in a lawsuit brought by a Democratic lawmaker suing him for his role in allegedly inciting the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
In a new filing, the DOJ said it has determined it does not believe Brooks was acting within the scope of the duties of his office when he spoke in front of a pro-Trump rally just before rioters stormed the building, telling the crowd, "today is the day American patriots start taking down names and kicking ass."
Brooks had asked for the Justice Department to replace him as a defendant in a lawsuit brought by Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., providing him legal immunity under a law known as the Westfall Act that former President Donald Trump similarly has sought to use to shield him from an effort by columnist E. Jean Carroll to sue him for defamation over his denial of her rape allegation. "We appreciate the thoughtful analysis by the Committee on House Administration and the Department of Justice and could not agree more with their conclusion," Rep. Swalwell’s attorney Philip Andonian said in a statement Tuesday night. "This conduct manifestly is outside the scope of Brooks’s employment as a member of Congress and the House and DOJ made the right call in requiring him to answer directly for his actions. This is a great step toward justice."[...] Brooks has not responded to ABC News' request for comment following the DOJ's decision Tuesday.

I fear it's a bit like with gun control - a majority of the population supports Roe v Wade, and a majority supports more gun control. But those who oppose Roe v Wade or those who oppose gun control tend to be very vehement about it, more likely to be driven to the polls solely because of that issue.
That said, I feel overturning Roe v Wade can easily backfire. Those opposing it will feel they won, so they don't need to go to the polls anymore, and those supporting it will feel outraged, especially with the way the GOP packed the Supreme Court using very dirty tricks, and might go the polls massively to express that rightful wrath.

As I said before, this occurs by design. Democracy in the United States is intentionally restricted.
