You must've been a handful at playschool mate. ("Here - keep an eye on young Jamie in the sandpit will you?" )

A "weak" correlation is a correlation, nonetheless. My brother has no vested interest either way, he's just a scientist who does the science. His conclusion as published in that particular paper reflects only the evidence he and his colleagues gathered during that research, privately he has told me that a "gay" gene has almost certainly been identified.LTO wrote:Your brother seems to agree with me that that there is no conclusive evidence, perhaps even less conclusive than I thought - "appears to support a weak correlation" is a pretty weak statement, especially for something they really want to be true.

Yes, I'm familiar with that site, it's pretty funny.

Pubert has shown extreme hetero behavior since early on, and he isn't even two yet. A boob man like his old man...and he likes pretty women and ignores unattractive or old ones.

I knew some guys in San Francisco who didn't start out gay - they just kinda got sucked into it.

In 2015, 13-15 years after the studies you cited (and studies cited in the article), this is where we are:
Researchers thought they were hot on the trail of “gay genes” in 1993, when a team led by geneticist Dean Hamer of the National Cancer Institute reported in Science that one or more genes for homosexuality had to reside on Xq28, a large region on the X chromosome. The discovery generated worldwide headlines, but some teams were unable to replicate the findings and the actual genes have not been found—not even by a team that vindicated Hamer's identification of Xq28 in a sample size 10 times larger than his last year. Twin studies suggested, moreover, that gene sequences can't be the full explanation. For example, the identical twin of a gay man, despite having the same genome, only has a 20% to 50% chance of being gay himself.

No, Scientists Have Not Found the ‘Gay Gene’
So, ultimately, what we have is an underpowered fishing expedition that used inappropriate statistics and that snagged results which may be false positives. Epigenetics marks may well be involved in sexual orientation. But this study, despite its claims, does not prove that and, as designed, could not have.
http://www.theatlantic.com/science/arch ... ne/410059/
And, the actual science aside, IMHO this is a horribly misguided project from the start - treating straight as innate and gay as an aberration that must be caused by something (a gene or whatever) - the assumption that there exists the clearly defined category 'gay' in some objective sense - the reduction of human behavior to genetic determinism (one need only have a look at 20th century history to see how badly that can go)...After all, it’s not 1996 anymore. In 2014, the “gay gene” simply doesn’t matter. The science behind it is narrow and inconclusive. Its rhetorical potential—if it ever had any—has been thoroughly exhausted. And, at this point, continuing to pursue a genetic explanation for homosexuality could more harm than it does good. It doesn’t matter whether or not you were “born this way,” what matters is being accepted the way you are, however you got there.
