Your question: So, it’s possible that a chemical imbalance in the brain is also the cause of homosexuality?

From the article: the act of mating induces permanent chemical modifications in the chromosomes, affecting the expression of genes that regulate sexual and monogamous behaviour.

I believe it is higly probably that homosexuality can be cured chemically. Any comments?

It's been known for a long time that a large percentage of homosexuals were molested as children. If a young person's first orgasmic experience was with someone of the same sex, that could affect which sex they "bond" to.

I have recently read a hypothesis that male homosexuality may be caused by an overabundance of fertility hormones in the mother’s body at the time she becomes pregnant. Those hormones change the development of the fetus’ brain.

To me, that suggests that the male homosexual’s brain may have epigenetic changes. Epigenetic modifications do not change the genetic sequence, but only how genes are expressed. I believe that if the epigenetic changes can be undone (with drugs and behavioral therapy), male homosexuals could be cured.

I don’t know about female homosexuals. I have not seen any hypotheses to describe their affliction. I just think of poor Chastity Bono, and how mentally ill that poor girl is, to the point of having herself surgically mutilated. She was such a cute little girl...
