I would think this means that homosexuality could be overcome, cured, or recovered from, just like alcoholism, which also has a hereditary component. However, the mere suggestion of helpiing homosexuals recover is met with horror and accusations of violating civil rights. That's a pity.

I'm wondering what these "genetic markers" are. I can see, for instance in women, that a marker for obesity would also be a marker for homosexuality and likewise a marker for unusual muscle mass. Similarly for men. You get the idea.

The fact is that almost everyone will do nearly anything to get their freak on and if you can't get it on through normal means, most will do it through any means. Just look at inmates with life sentences.


I suspect this whole subject is more complex than most people imagine. This new study is just scratching at the surface.

I also wonder if some of the marker genes correlate with other personality traits such as low stress resistance.

You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
