I fully agree with <strong>Wolf</strong>'s analysis. You can be predisposed to being gay, but there is no gene for being gay. It's just a developmental issue, pretty much the same as Ray Bradbury's butterfly. Deeply seated, primal preferences are not accesible, nor can they be changed without major damage to the psyche. But then, that's soooo complex and people are idiots, right? *pssst* <em>we have homosexuals because homosexuals are good for the rest of us</em>*passiton* The biological genesis of homosexuality is one of my pet peeves.
