The study’s findings would appear to contradict numerous twin studies that show high discordance between monozygotic twins on this particular trait.
Simply put, if the cause IS genetic, then why is it more common to see one identical twin that is straight and one that is gay, rather than pairs of gay identical twins? If someone was born that way, then you’d think that a pair of individuals with the same genome, who shared the same womb at the same time, would share the trait.
The more rational supposition would be that some non-genetic factor is the primary cause, perhaps with some predisposing factors that goose up the odds just a little (birth order effect, fetal hormonal influence, etc). It could be that effeminate boys are more susceptible to said non-genetic causative factors as well.
And, always, as an aside to this type of debate, why is it that raging leftist progressives assume as a matter of deep faith that all human beings are the product of their environment and NOT their genetics? Why is it that they believe as a matter of deep faith that deeply ingrained human characteristics like gender and race are mere “social constructs”, but that gay people are “born that way”? Doesn’t the insane contradiction bug them? Or do they just never stop and THINK, and instead rely on feelings to guide their world-view?

Is there a scientific study that makes this observation? If so, can you direct us to a source? Thanks.
