As we always knew, being gay is a lifestyle choice, people are not born gay, and science has proven this.

The question now becomes; how do we change society to correct this abnormal behavior?

  • No single "gay gene" determines sexual orientation.
    Research, including the largest study of its kind, involving nearly half a million people, has concluded that there is no singular gene responsible for being gay.
    Sexual orientation is influenced by a combination of factors:
    • Genetics: While not solely determined by genetics, genes play a role, contributing to a portion of the variation in same-sex sexual behavior. Studies have identified specific genetic variants associated with same-sex behavior, but their individual effects are small.
    • Environment: Non-genetic or environmental factors, which can include things like prenatal influences, also play a significant role in shaping sexual orientation.
    • Other Biological Factors: Research suggests other biological factors may also be involved, such as prenatal hormone exposure, maternal immune response, and neuroanatomical differences in the brain.
  • It is effectively impossible to predict an individual's sexual behavior from their genome. The study suggests that, at best, genetic variants can only predict a small portion of the variation in sexual behavior within a population.
    Important Notes:
    • This research emphasizes that the diversity of sexual behaviors is a natural part of human variation.

But genetis are a factor? You contradict yourself in the same post. Have to agree with Helix, bullshit indeed.

A small factor.

Not the deciding one meaning it can be changed.

Serial killers have a small killer gene also so should we just let them kill away?

I think not.
 
I suggest you read all of your AI generated source link.
Right at the bottom it says -
In summary, scientific research suggests that sexual orientation is not a choice and has a biological basis, though not due to a single gene. Instead, it's influenced by a complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors.

So being gay is no different than being straight, or bi, or trans.
None of those life styles is the result of a single gene.
 
Exactly my point.

Nobody is born gay.
 
This post is misinformation. Everyone knows homosexuality is caused by butt worms.

If it was a choice I wouldn't be.

Sad that your life is so bad that all you have left is to reply to them then.

I'm sorry.

I really don't understand the mentality of wanting to get involved in the personal business of two consenting adults.
 
The better question is why anyone would want to change the behavior since who people choose to have sex with is their choice. If you find that kind of sex to be "abnormal behavior" then don't engage in it, but it's not your choice to make for others.
 
Noticed you have so far ignored a simple question asked of you. Post 11

So why try to deny people who identify as gay, or bi, or trans, the same basic human rights enjoyed by people who identify as straight?

I would like to know as well. Why is being gay a problem for you. What makes it incorrect / abnormal.?
 
And if you are straight, why are you so interested in this? "Asking for a friend"?
