A comprehensive study 100 times the sample size of any previous study (about 470,000 people) -- shows that "born that way" is a myth. From the article: "there no 'gay gene' and genetic factors are insignificant in determining sexual orientation....This means that non-genetic factors, including environment, upbringing, personality, and nurture are far more significant in influencing a person's choice of sexual partner, just as with most other personality, behavioral and physical human traits, according to the researchers."

If homosexuality were genetic, identical twins would always be on the same team. They’re not. Q.E.D.

Of course there is no "gay" gene. There also is no "straight" gene either.

People's sexual preferences are theirs and theirs alone and should be nobody's business. Gays have always been with us and always will be. I bear them no malice and would never deny them any right a straight person has. AT THE SAME TIME, please don't force me to celebrate your choice. I can coexist with it, but I am not going to cheer it on.

No gay, trans, bi or anything else. We are all born with or with out a pair.

So homersexuality is a BEHAVIOUR.

BEHAVIOURS can be modified.

I've been observing this hullabaloo with some small interest over the past 40-plus years. I'm by now convinced that essential faggotry is almost exclusively a phenomenon of hormones. For whatever reason, the kid's mother has an excess of either testosterone or estrogen, and this imbalance reaches into the womb to eventually turn her baby into a different sexual direction. Female babies become predisposed to butch or hyper-female lesbianism. Male babies turn submissive or hyper-masculine — arguably the worst possible outcome. The poofters are partially correct — many of them are indeed born that way.

But that's only one side of the problem. The other, much darker side is that hyper-masculine men will ... um, seek out extremely inappropriate companionship on an involuntary basis. Their unwilling victims are deeply traumatized and grow up sexually twisted. They subconsciously seek to repair their permanently shattered psyches by "accepting" aggressively perverse behavior as "normal," which of course requires victimizing unwilling little boys themselves. It's a vicious circle of destroyed innocence.

As always, there are shades of gray. Outside of rape, the relentless degradation of traditional values and biological normalcy by the homosexual shock troops on the left have persuaded far too many adults and children that perversity is "normal" and therefore worth "trying out" even though they're not naturally inclined that way themselves. Thus the gay armies gain strength even as somewhere way down deep, the souls of millions of normal kids cry out against their unknown corruption.

By my estimate, the true faggots still only make up around two percent of the population, possibly upward of three percent now from all the estrogen that has been dumped into the water over the past 50 years by women using birth-control pills. But thanks to the endless propaganda war of the poofter guerillas and their successful subversion of confused hordes of normal children, an amazing number of younger folks apparently believe that faggots represent an astonishing 30 percent or more of the population. The problem continually recreates itself in an endless cycle of ugly, dehumanizing perversion.

You tell me. Am I wrong?

Seems like every week a 50 something male friend or friend of friend of mine on FB comes out as gay and proceeds to divorce their wife.

What’s up with this all of a sudden?

I didn’t need to do a study. If there ever were a ‘gay’ gene, it would die out quickly, since they don’t reproduce to pass it on.

I still like Lady GaGa’s song “Born this Way”. Not changing either.

From the article:

“The research, which analyzed data on DNA and sexual experiences from almost half a million people, found there are thousands of genetic variants linked to same-sex sexual behavior, most with very small effects.
Five of the genetic markers were “significantly” associated with same-sex behavior, the researchers said, but even these are far from being predictive of a person’s sexual preferences.

“We scanned the entire human genome and found a handful - five to be precise - of locations that are clearly associated with whether a person reports in engaging in same-sex sexual behavior””

The writer ( and regular debate protagonist of conservative author Bill Buckley ), GORE VIDAL was gay himself.

He however, refused to be called homosexual and insisted that we are all potentially bi-sexual.

Writing for an edition of Esquire magazine in 1969, he wrote:

Quote:

“We are all bisexual to begin with. That is a fact of our condition. And we are all responsive to sexual stimuli from our own as well as from the opposite sex. [...] regardless of tribal taboos, homosexuality is a constant fact of the human condition and it is not a sickness, not a sin, not a crime [...] Homosexuality is as natural as heterosexuality. Notice I use the word ‘natural,’ not normal.”

This for me, explains why a lot of gay activists want schools to “educate” children to “find” their own innate sexuality. They want company. The more, the better.

Of course there isn’t!

You WEREN’T “born that way”!

It’s 100% about the deviant, exciting, perverted SEX!

When they say it’s not about the sex, it’s about the sex.
