Government should protect gay people om discrimatn bee homosexualy is an unalterable aspect of their inty. Perhaps sexual preference n be changed – and people have the right to engage gay sex and have homosexual relatnships if they choose to do so.
(The fourth optn, that gay people have no choice but to be gay, but should be punished for anyway, is morally unthkable.
WHY DO SOME CHRISTIANS BELIEVE ’S OK TO BE GAY, WHEN THE BIBLE SAYS ISN’T?
* gay is ok *
A gay man is more likely than a straight man to have a (blogil) gay brother; lbians are more likely than straight women to have gay sisters. In 1993, a study published the journal Science showed that fai wh two homosexual brothers were very likely to have certa geic markers on a regn of the X chromosome known as Xq28.
This led to media headl about the possibily of the existence of a “gay gene” and discsns about the ethics of abortg a “gay” fet. In some societi, homosexualy is accepted, others, is owned upon but tolerated, yet others, is a ser crimal offense, possibly punishable by ath.
WHY GAY IS NOT OK
The lennial is reared differently om olr folks. Moral l were clearer then: s was a s, e.g., beg gay. But 's "okay" now. * gay is ok *
What you have learned about homosexualy as you were growg up will affect whether you nsir engagg homosexual acts to be sirable or disgtg. Some people might argue that if you are “geilly gay” but the thought of homosexualy nseat you, then you jt haven’t accepted the fact that you really are gay.
That argument is based on the assumptn that sexual preference is purely blogil; therefore, has no place a discsn about the possible of homosexualy.
In 1991, a study published the journal Science seemed to show that the hypothalam, which ntrols the release of sex hormon om the puary gland, gay men differs om the hypothalam straight men. The third terstial nucls of the anterr hypothalam (INAH3) was found to be more than twice as large heterosexual men as homosexual men.

This study was cricized bee ed bra tissue obtaed at topsi, and all of the homosexual subjects the study were believed to have died of AIDS. This study, which also ed bra tissue om topsi, did not reveal any signifint difference between the size of the INAH3 gay men and straight men.
HOW TO KNOW IF YOU ARE GAY
If "gay" n mean both "homosexual" and "lame," do make homophobic to e for the latter? A discsn of a ntroversial word. * gay is ok *
It did, however, show that gay men, nrons the INAH3 are packed more closely together than straight men. PET and MRI studi performed 2008 have shown that the two halv of the bra are more symmetril homosexual men and heterosexual women than heterosexual men and homosexual women. The studi have also revealed that nnectns the amygdalas of gay men remble those of straight women; gay women, nnectns the amygdala remble those of straight men.
GAY IS OKAY
In dozens of untri around the world, ’s a crime to be gay. We worked wh All Out to start a global nversatn of #gayisok! * gay is ok *
Some studi have shown that the rp llosum – the ma nnectn between the two halv of the bra- has a different stcture gay men than straight men.
GAY IS OK! SEMAP
Gay women and gay men are more likely to be left-hand or ambixtro than straight women and straight men, acrdg to a number of different studi. A 1992 study showed that the anterr missure, a smaller nnectn between the bra’s two hemispher, is larger homosexual men than straight men. By manipulatg hormone levels durg this time, scientists n make rats engage homosexual behavr later on.
So far, attempts to “cure” homosexualy by operatg on the bra – homosexuals were once given lobotomi - have never worked. Gay men and straight men have the same levels of sex hormon; sex hormone levels are the same gay women and straight women.
Today, however, we know much more about the bra than we did when homosexualy was nsired a disease that required treatment, and the amount of knowledge that we have about the bra is creasg. Even if gay people n never stop beg attracted to members of the same sex, they n learn not to act on their sir. If we fe beg gay as engagg homosexual behavr (the ncept of “gay” as an inty is a Wtern cultural ncept – people who have sex wh both men and women may ll themselv gay, straight or bisexual, pendg on the l of their culture or subculture), then people stop beg gay as soon as they stop engagg this behavr.

I believe that people have the right to engage any behavr that they choose, as long as their actns do not harm others, and I believe that gay sex and gay relatnships do not e harm to anyone. (Of urse, there are abive and unhealthy gay relatnships that should not be tolerated, jt as there are unhealthy heterosexual relatnships that should not be tolerated. If sexual preference n be altered, then people who support gay rights n’t rely on the argument that gay people should be protected om discrimatn bee gay people have no choice but to be gay – an argument that seems like an apology for homosexualy, as if homosexualy is a disease for which there is no cure.
There is an element of homophobia that argument– the implitn that gay people would bee straight, if only they uld. The “gays n’t help beg that way” approach is remiscent of the old view of homosexualy as a psychiatric illns. Jt as gay people who are happy as they are should not be forced to change their sexual orientatn, gay people who want to be straight should have the right to change if they n – and the rrect word is “change” – not “cure”.
