NEW TW STUDY: PEOPLE NOT BORN GAY

In fact, scientists recently intified two specific gen that appear to differ between gay and straight men [1]. For example, one may be straight while the other is gay.

In s like this, some might argue that perhaps both tws are actually gay, but one jt hasn’t e out yet. In a study where scientists looked at the sexual aroal patterns of intil tws wh different sexuali—specifilly, where one was gay and the other was straight—they found that gay tws monstrated more genal aroal rponse to same-sex imag, whereas straight tws monstrated more aroal rponse to oppose-sex imag [2]. In theory, this means two people uld rry “gay gen, ” but both of them wouldn’t necsarily be gay pendg on certa environmental factors.

012% of the populatn nsists of a gay or bisexual person who happens to have an intil tw [2]. Homosexual orientatn tws: a report on 61 pairs and three triplet sets. Tw pairs which at least one tw is homosexual were soliced through announcements the gay prs and personal referrals om 1980 to the prent.

8% for homosexual orientatn.

4% for homosexual orientatn.

GAY PORN STARS ARE TWS, LOVERS

Two sets ntaed a pair of monozygotic tws nrdant for sexual orientatn wh the third triplet dizygotic and disrdant for homosexual orientatn.

A third triplet set was monozygotic wh all three nrdant for homosexual orientatn. Homosexuals who are tws. Is homosexualy faial?

Homosexualy stops the transfer of DNA to a new generatn. The latt tw studi regardg homosexualy are givg more evince that homosexualy is not DNA termed. S., and Sndavia durg the last two s all arrive at the same ncln: gays were not born that way....

If homosexualy is ed by geics or prenatal ndns and one tw is gay, the -tw should also be gay. ’“Bee intil tws are always geilly intil, homosexualy nnot be geilly dictated. ‘No-one is born gay, ’ he not.

‘The predomant thgs that create homosexualy one intil tw and not the other have to be post-birth factors. Consir the followg and ask yourself this qutn: Why are scientists workg to overe the geic irregulari but not homosexualy which is geilly unter productive?

IS A PERSON ‘BORN GAY’, OR IS BEG GAY A LEARNED BEHAVR?

If their DNA gen are “intil, ” now that they are adults, how n one be homosexual, while his tw is married wh children? As time go on, scientists have regnized that not everybody fs to the clear-cut tegori of “straight” and “gay. Studi have shown that intil tws, if one tw is gay (the term “homosexual” is ed clil studi but is nsired offensive, so I won’t e further), then 30 per cent to 66 per cent of the intil tws also will be gay.

However, an adopted siblg of a gay person is also more likely to be gay (11 per cent one study), suggtg that the faial environment also plays a signifint role. In a recent Guardian article, Simon Copland argued that is very unlikely people are born gay (or prumably any other sexual orientatn). Fdg evince for a blogil basis should not sre or unrme gay, lbian and bisexual (LGB) rights (the studi I refer to do not clu transgenred dividuals, so I’ll nfe my ments to lbian, gay and bisexual people).

TWS WERE BORN TO A GAY COUPLE. ONLY ONE CHILD WAS REGNIZED AS A U.S. CIZEN, UNTIL NOW.

Evince om pennt rearch groups who studied tws shows that geic factors expla about 25-30% of the differenc between people sexual orientatn (heterosexual, gay, lbian, and bisexual). Tw studi are a first look to the geics of a tra and tell that there are such thgs as “gen for sexual orientatn” (I hate the phrase “gay gene”).

Three gene fdg studi showed that gay brothers share geic markers on the X chromosome; the most recent study also found shared markers on chromosome 8. For example, plex psychologil tras have many al gen (not simply “a gay gene”). Perhaps this is due to the stereotype that female sexualy is “too plex” or that lbians are rarer than gay are far om the whole story.

SCIENTISTS FD DNA DIFFERENC BETWEEN GAY MEN AND THEIR STRAIGHT TW BROTHERS

Gen uld themselv nudge one towards a particular sexual orientatn or gen may simply teract wh other environmental factors (such as sex hormon the womb environment) to fluence later sexual bras of gay and heterosexual people also appear to be anised differently.

For example patterns of bra anisatn appear siar between gay men and heterosexual women and between lbian women and heterosexual men.

Gay men appear, on average, more “female typil” bra pattern rpons and lbian women are somewhat more “male typil”. Differenc bra anisatn mean differenc psychology and study after study show differenc gnn between heterosexual and gay people. Th gay differenc are not jt about who you fancy.

The fluence of blogy ns throughout our sexual and genred liv and those differenc, that diversy, is surely to be wrers tend to wave off the scientific evince by urgg to look to the history of sexualy or claim that homosexualy is a social nstctn (cue Michel Fouult and the like). We fall love wh men or women bee we have gay, straight, or bisexual orientatns and not bee of choice.
