MissileMan said:To my knowledge, they've only successfully isolated a small number of specific genes that cause diseases...most are yet to be discovered. For the record, I don't believe that there is a "gay" gene. If it were genetic, it would also tend to be hereditary. I do however believe that it is a mis-wiring of the brain that occurs during fetal development and as such is something that gays are born with.
Which is interesting. In siblings there is a correlation either in environment or in genetic makeup that leads certain families to have homosexual siblings. One of my girlfriend's friends for example has a sister who is a lesbian. Not surprisingly she has some bisexual tendencies. There has to be some common event to lead to these events... More than just chance would predict. Whether its a genetically caused event remains to be seen.
