Then you don't understand genetics.

Your baseless claim that I don't understand is duly noted as a cop-out.

Look up "phenotype".

Why? I already know the definition.

But thanks for the neat idea. I think from now on I'll debate by insisting that people look up words.

A lot of women like gay men, and it is women who do the mate selection.

Uh, the majority of human evolution didn't take place in the days of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and men bringing over flowers and begging for sex. No, we're talkin' caveman days here, where you clocked your woman on the head and dragged her over by the hair... and where, more to the point, competition for mates was fierce and primarily physical. A disinclination to engage in the competition would put one at a serious disadvantage when it comes to passing on one's genes.

Why? I already know the definition.

Then why ask why a trait based partially in genetics would necessarily die out completely simply because it reduces the odds of reproduction for the individual?
