More likely the rise is explicable by the rise in acceptance of gayness in the culture. The more okay we think it is to be gay, the more gays there are. I can’t think that’s a coincidence.

There’s the possibility that removing the stigma merely prompted closet cases to come forward, rather than more people becoming gay because it’s easier to be gay. But then I’d have to think of all these men who lived their entire lives only or mostly having sex with women as *really* gay, and lying to others and themselves the whole time. Which I find hard to swallow.

Not that there are no such things as closet cases. But to me gay is as gay does for the majority of us. Heterosexual copulation is abstracted enough from basic biological mandates as it is, married sex moreso. Heck, people hump holes in trees for satisfaction, for as much as the sexual object means to their satisfaction. It is habit that determines orientation.

this is garbage propaganda.

by this logic:

behavior of:

murdering is a behavior that is inherited...

speeding is a behavior that is inherited...

bill clinton cheating is a behavior that is inherited...

lying is a behavior that is inherited...
