Despite some tantalizing leads over the past 2 decades, researchers have yet to isolate any genes directly linked to homosexuality

In other words, there is no scientific basis for the article. The rest is statistical analysis based on preconceptions with no basis in actual genetics.

I have to agree. There are a variety of factors tht can be attributed to society or environment that are merely coincidental.

For example, we could say that the amounnt of sexual partners could be a sub-consciously driven behavior to reproduce. Then we could look at the population of Sweden and find out that blue-eyed people have much more pre-marital sex than brown-eyed people. We could create a whole lot of biological hypothesis on that except that the actual reason would be that the blue-eyed people are generally ethnic Swedes who have far fewer morals in regards to sex than the Muslim immigrants who are primarily brown-eyed.
