Born Gay? Who cares?
A report on Slate provides new evidence for the argument that homosexuals are born that way. My response: who cares. Seeing that more than 90% of humans are heterosexual and that those include unfortunate souls like Amin, Stalin, Hitler, Bin Laden and Bush, a far more interesting and pressing question would be whether heterosexuals are born that way. Somebody please tell me its not genetic and they can change!

Do I understand you correctly - that you deny any genetic component to being gay (or heterosexual)?
Were your parents heterosexual? Your grandparents, great-grandparents? If so, then it's probably not genetic. And yes, they can change.
Then why all the fuss about getting recognition, status (e.g. marriage) etc ... ?
Duhhh, joke people! But my serious point is that it really should not matter whether one is gay or straight or why. It really should be utterly irrelevant when consenting adults love each other or want to have sex with each other. Sadly it is not. That is why there is all the fuss....
Darwin was adopted.
Although there may be some small genetic component there is no scientific evidence suggesting a "gay gene". people simply aren't born gay, instead homosexuality develops in response to life events and environment. Yes there are many happy homosexuals out there but for some their "sexuality" can develop out of negativities such as an absent father figure or abuse from same-sex peers during childhood. Sexuality is certainly not fixed and with substansial effort some gays can change.
