Here is how I rationalize it. Some people like pickles and some don’t. Is it a genetic trait or is it choice. I don’t know, maybe neither. Let’s say it’s not genetic. If you don’t like pickles, can you just choose to start liking pickles. No, probably not.

I don’t think homosexuality is a mental disorder. I think it’s just how some people are wired. Honestly I don’t really care who someone chooses to spend their time with and have physical relationships with. No more than I care if you like pickles on your burger. That’s your business. I do draw the line at it being constantly being a forced narrative and trying to convince children into being gay. And from a moral/spiritual standpoint I disagree with it but again I also don’t go around forcing my moral/religious views on everyone.

Now gender fluidity and the trans movement are another story. Those are definitely mental disorders just the same as anorexia and bilemia. I don’t hate these people but I definitely will not enable them and I wish they could all get the psychological treatment they need.

Even further advantage would be if the gay dudes tend to be younger brothers. You'd have a young male in your group fighting for you and your kids.

Get angry about that all you want, but here we are - gay dudes abound all throughout history.

They only represent a small percentage of the population. Don’t forget that. If it were genetic, it probably would die out and we’d probably see population numbers like we have.

I don’t know whether it’s caused by nature or nurture, but either way it’s a behavior rather than a biological trait like race or sex.

If gay dudes are perverts, so is every straight guy that's had anal sex with a woman. And all men are horny. Gay or straight. I think gay men can have sex easier than straight men because men are much more willing than women when it comes to sex!

So, the male homosexuals (obviously) are not passing those markers to the next generation in great numbers, but their straight sisters ARE doing so.

Homosexuality is nothing more than a fetish. All people have some sort of kink, it can be they’re into things like spanking, or feet, arse, or whatever. The only difference in homosexuals is their kink is having sex with those of the same sex. There is absolutely nothing special about them.

There are many reasons people engage in homosexuality. Every other opinion is nonsense.
Homosexuality is a multifactorial and remarkably poorly understood phenomenon.

As we've observed virtually no female genetic proclivity, we've searched for X-recessive or Y-chromosomal associations. There is significant political interest in finding a "gay gene." So much so that, as with AGW, politics influences funding, and funding influences the science. Despite reports to the contrary, scientific claims of strong genetic ties still range from marginal to dubious.

We do know genetics contribute to multiple behaviors. Sexuality is certainly one of them. But variant social expressions of those are extremely important, even dominant.

e.g., Homosexual activity is nearly nonexistent in certain homomisic Middle Eastern, African and Asian cultures. Conversely, it occurs at an 80-90% rate among long-term male inmates in US prisons. So regardless of genetics, psychological phenotypic expression is highly variable.

What about love for one's own sex? Everyone is coming at this from a purely sexual standpoint. I believe a lot of gay people truly love their partners....

They’re not…the act of sex is a choice(aside from something extreme such as rape). One can choose to not even partake in sex or die at a young age before that is an issue.

As of yet I don’t know of anyone that went through life without certain TRUE genetic traits such as race, gender, etc…and don’t give me any of this woke gender shite either.

Then it’s a genetic trait. And if it’s a genetic trait wouldn’t have evolution made that characteristic “extinct” since homosexuals would obviously be procreating less prolifically than heterosexuals?



I asked this exact same question on here a few years ago and was called an idiot and told I didn't understand science.

BTW, I totally agree with you. If a people with a certain genetic trait don't breed throughout all of human history, that genetic trait goes extinct over time. Period.

If everyone with blue eyes isn't allowed to breed for 10,000 years do you really think 5% of the population will have blue eyes?

For some. But you can look at some people, or listen to some people and tell they are different.

You've never wondered about the lisp?

Maybe it’s more like a one time genetic mutation or anomaly instead of genetic and passed down.
