The basic relationship of the individual to his or her God is a direct one, requiring no intermediation, although it is hopefully facilitated by a good parish priest, whose job it is to serve the local community, to "feed the flock". There have always been gay vicars, just as there have been heterosexual ones. It's not a problem so long as they carry out their primary duty of pastoral care. The parishioners will finally make their own accommodation with what is or what isn't acceptable to them.
The simple point is that the sexual orientation or gender of our priests and vicars is just not really our business any more than the proclivities of our neighbours. What matters is the honesty of relationships and integrity of our promises. Christ was no wet. He posed uncomfortable dilemmas over wealth, love and the treatment of our fellow men. But on the inner workings of our sexual lives, he did not make any judgement.
If you are a man referring to this vicar as priapic I would imagine you are beginning to question your own orientation.
