If homosexuality can be genetically predetermined what will the gay advocates stance then be on abortion?

They were all hot to find a "gay gene" not that long ago, and then it apparently occurred to somebody that if there were such a thing, it could be found by amniocentesis, like Down's syndrome, for instance. And just as a diagnosis of Down's syndrome is often followed by an abortion, whaddaya think would happen with the "gay gene"? (After all, most parents are straight by biological necessity.)

Btw, couples sometimes refuse amniocentesis as a statement that they intend to keep the child no matter what its medical status.

When our little ones were "in the oven", people would ask us "What are you hoping for, a boy or a girl?", and we would answer "Either one."

And they would say, "Oh, so you don't care which, just as long as it's healthy!"

To which I would answer, "No, just as long as it's human."

I got a lot of strange looks, but I think the point was taken.

There was a Law and Order episode on just that. They wanted an injunction from a Judge to stop an Abortion that was believed to be sought out of genetic disposition that the baby would be Gay. They used the term “Gay Genocide”.
