Do you have any scientific data to back this up? Gender dysphoria, which is the only thing I can see that might conceivably result from changing a fetus's sex after some development had begun, has nothing to do with homosexuality or bisexuality. Otherwise, saying that changing a baby that was "meant to" be a girl into a boy would have ill effects is like saying that the potentiality of what COULD happen biologically is more important than what IS happening, like because someone was "meant" to die from cancer, preventing them from doing so will have ill effects. This reminds me of the philosophies of some fringe Christian groups that refuse all medical treatment on these grounds.
