  • Because even scientists will tell you that. Look up research if you want to, I'm busy.

    [quote]But not everyone finds the results convincing. And the kind of DNA analysis used, known as a genetic linkage study, has largely been superseded by other techniques. Due to the limitations of this approach, the new work also fails to provide what behavioral geneticists really crave: specific genes that might underlie homosexuality.[/quote] [quote]When the genetics of being gay comes up at scientific meetings, “sometimes even behavioral geneticists kind of wrinkle up their noses,” says Kenneth Kendler, a psychiatric geneticist at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. That’s partially because the science itself is so complex. Studies comparing identical and fraternal twins suggest there is some heritable component to homosexuality, [u]but no one believes that a single gene or genes can make a person gay. [/u]Any genetic predispositions probably interact with environmental factors that influence development of a sexual orientation.[/quote]
