Er, you guys are not quite getting this.

1. The theory is interesting, and more importantly, as stated, its easily testable. That means that this can clearly be discarded if it doesn’t test out, unlike other vague explanations that hang on because they are untestable. This thing either is true, shortly to be determined, or its gone and everyone can go back to their favorite theories.

2. If it does test out, then potentially not only can this be tested for, it can also potentially be prevented or even cured. Gene therapy perhaps.

3. At least a simple early pregnancy genetic test probably can be produced. That would make an interesting sort of leverage on abortion policy, for one thing.

Wouldn’t it be Homophobic to cure it.

What would the queers say if you said there wouldn’t be any more of them?

This needs rethinking I am sure homosexuals would be against this.

This theory explains the children that come out different. It might not be the only answer to sexual orientation nd imprinting (molestation) may also play a role, but no doubt something is hard wired as well. There are many children who play differently than their gender. They were not molested. They are good people, beloved children of Gd, but they act like the opposite gender, not their own. This does demand study. Epigenetics helps to explain these discrepancies because there is no gay “gene,” just gay behavior and sometimes looks as well.

I believe they are onto something. Knuckle dragging freepers love to think that molestation creates all homosexuality, but they would be very wrong. Ask the good decent men who are very straight but their lives have been greatly damaged by mole station by a man in their childhoods. It definitely doesn’t turn all boys gay.

I hope it will be testable too either way, and if its true that people will not abort babies who have it just as I wish they didnt abort babies with down.

It is THE sort of think Hillary C is FOR. Genetic testing to “decide” where a child can be placed in society. In this case— gays can be “aborted” with ease if known in advance.

So, depending on your “preference” as a parent, and in line with the Planned Parenthood nazism, this would be ultimate eugenics. For the purity of the child and all.

The gays don’t want this. Anymore than the study long ago about male babies born during the London Blitz— percentage homo quite high vs. control population which was not in the blitz. Mothers had high adrenalin from fear all the time— and the male babies were “feminized” (in all basic embryology texts, or at least it was at one point) by the high adrenalin blood levels in the mother.

At least one circumstance for abortion will be made illegal.
