RobbyS said in post 203:
No one really believes that homosexuality is genetically based.
You responded in post 205
But there is some evidense that it can be traced to hormonal mix-ups during developement in the womb.
You pointed me here to support your statement but that article in no way states homosexuality/lesbianism is genetic. In fact it states:
Agrawal said her research neither suggests nor indicates PCOS causes lesbianism, only that PCOS is more prevalent in lesbian women.
As I said in post 214:

Many studies have been done and many claims made, and everything points back to environment. I think you might find this informative:
How Might Homosexuality Develop? Putting the Pieces Together

From everything I've read I'd say the above is a good summary of the issues. Also of interest: Homosexuality and Genetics.

The study you pointed me to in no way supports there's any link to homosexuality and genetics. Everything points to environment.

Notice the last part of the sentence, PCOS could be used as a starting point, and it does bare more reseach.
