I strongly suspect that the vast majority of sexual mis-orientation occurs because of issues between the person and one of his/her parents. I'm not a child psychologist, but experiences during the formative childhood years clearly have a strong influence on the rest of a person's life.

Have there been any studies to look at sexual mis-orientation vis a vis parental relationships (divorce, single-parent home, emotional, psychological, sexual or physical abuse, etc.)? That seems to me to be where the real action happens.

Check the links I just posted above. Most homosexuals have had poor bonding with their fathers, or the fathers were absent.
