Your ignorance about homosexuality is astounding, staggeringly astounding. The little boy down the street, 6 months older than my daughter, and at age 4 or 5, always want to be the "mommy" when they played house. Always wanted to play dress up in girls cloths, etc. etc.

Now in his 30's, is quite happy in his gay lifestyle. It was blatently obvious even as a little boy he would be gay.

The exact same thing with my cousin and my niece. both of them were obviously "different" during their childhood. Of course my cousin has been gone for twenty years but my niece has lived with the same woman for more than 20 years. This stuff ain't "spiritual bs" it's real life.

I definitely believe some people are born homosexual and I am very glad our society is more accepting of these people. It probably is hard being gay now, but it must have been much, much harder 50 years ago.

The reason some animals are homosexual? From what I know, we have several pairs of chromosones. Maybe certain chromosones determine our physical characteristics and others determine how our brains work. Usually the chromosones that determine a body to be of one sex also determine the brain to physically desire the other sex, but sometimes it doesn't work that way.

So, provide a single study that claims to prove causation.

That would imply a birth defect.

It's also anecdotal.

Ok. We get it. You don't like gay people. Perhaps it is time to move on.

I never suggested otherwise.

Where did you get that idea? I became a teacher in no small part because of a gay uncle of mine. I adore that man. However, just because I love and respect this man doesn't mean homosexuality is genetic. What is so hard to understand about this? Just what makes so many liberals/leftists so damned shallow?
