Sexual preferences are 100% learnt through puberty. There are numerous evidence to it. The gene idea is unscientific Lysenkoism at its worst.

“” “” Gay Gene is the uncle that molested them.”” “”

Nice joke and so true.

Of the adult gay men I know, 100% were raped or otherwise molested by a man as children.

Well you could do a genetic test for the gay gene and abort the kid before ihe is born.

Propose that and watch liberals heads explode.

“A gay gene wouldn’t make sense”

Precisely.....natural selection would have weeded it out early on.

People get outright militant when you bring up scientific facts. They’ll scream that you’re entitled to your opinion. Only it’s not opinion, it’s fact.

The study you referenced only had about 2200 participants. This new one has studied the DNA from almost 500,000 people.

No the press reported it that way knowing it would confuse a public that didn’t know how to read scientific papers.

The gay gene paper should have never made it past peer review but Science magazine was pushing an agenda. They were called out for it by the readership but the press didn’t report that.

We knew that. This, like all other inconvenient truths, will be ignored by the media.

PS. There was no need to do any study. A gene that causes the person to NOT reproduce, is a gene that is not passed to the next generation. This is elementary and obvious.

They are still pushing an agenda. Look at the title for this one.

But homos seem like post-apocalyptic mutants.

Actually that wasn’t bad. They haven’t found anything but an avenue of research.
They explain up front ,
“Even all the markers taken together, however, cannot predict whether a person is gay, bisexual, or straight.”

It could be a recessive gene.

I agree that is the recipe.....we called them perverts. Now they have some kind of superior rights.

And apparently no x or y chromosome either.
If they found a hay gene aborting a gay mass of cells would be illegal. They would never allow truth to get in the way of their real agenda.

If homosexuality were genetic, identical twins would always be on the same team. They’re not. Q.E.D.

“Sexual preferences are 100% learnt through puberty.”

Don’t quite know what you mean by that. The first time I fell in love was with a little blonde girl in my 1st grade class. I certainly was not alone in that. I have seen little two year old boys go nuts over ten year old girls.

You are a human and not animal. The attraction is not only sexual in nature.

So, what you’re saying is that being homosexual is an abnormality like down’s syndrome?
