Born Gay

This is like asking why you have a certain fetish

I don't think fetishes pass down from genes. I can tell you my fetishes come from life experiences probably.

Or maybe you just have them, not from life experience, just there.

Maybe but no way to prove either way.

You could resort to Assassin's Creed where memories are stored in DNA...

Agree.

I also agree. It seems to be more of a fetish for me at least, considering it's not interupting my sexual prefernce for women which still very heavily exists, sometimes the idea of being with a guy turns me on too though. Just like the idea of a few other NSFW things turns me on also.. This is something completely different from a guy who could never imagine being with a woman, and who falls in love with men only. Clearly something in their life happened to deter them from wanting to date women, that's why some guys are gay but still like women, while others hardly want anything to do with them. Gene's only decide so much, but they don't decide your preference in anything else, why would it determine your sexuality.

It's genetics I say!!! I know a group of quadruplets who are all gay. Not that they aren't nice though fun to hang around.

If they're quad's that means they all had similar lives though.. same parents same house and whatnot for most of their lives, so it could possibly be experience also.

This is a really good scientific journal that offers a kind of introduction to the whole debate. It's a pretty good read (even if you don't necessarily believe all of it) if you like journals.

Huh?

Sorry for RAISING THIS THREAD FROM THE DEAD (not really) but this is a subject I am really interested and passionate about.

I believe homosexuality/bisexuality comes from, mainly, biological factors. Genes, hormones and embryonic development have, in my opinion, a big influence on your sexuality. That said, I do not deny that nurture factors can have a considerable effect. I do believe biological factors have more influence in the matter, however.
For those arguing that homosexuality is inherenty a deficiency because of the so called "reproduction arguement": This is something I've personally come up with, and it has no scientific proof whatsoever. It ocurred to me that perhaps homosexuality is one of nature's many method for self preservation. A biological stop sign, which limits population growth, thus putting checks to uncontrolled birth rates. Overpopulation is a very serious problem, maybe gays is just nature's way of regulating it.
Those are my 2 cents, good topic!

Does this mean that nature believes my genetics to be inherently better than the gay ones, since I am "allowed" to reproduce?

Absolutely not. Your genes are necessary, just as mine are. And besides, nature is a concept, not an entity. If it really was able to think, and it arrived at the conclusion that your genes are better and therefore must be allowed to carry on to new generations, then how can you account for the hundered of thousand of men and women who ARE indeed limited in a number of ways (mentally, for instance) and yet perfectly able to reproduce due to their heterosexual "status"?
