Gay Gene?

Heh... :) Numbers go right through my head. Thanks for not thinking I'm a freak.

Need any help in your English homework? LOL.

No, I'm serious man. I know I was born gay.

 

Need any help with your Math Homework?:P

 

Hmm... not at the moment.

 

lol guys stay on topic :P
anyways im bi
and there is no such thing as the "gay gene" XD
it sounds stupid anyways

 

I say anything can be blamed on genetics. Dumb example-
"I'm smart"
"You're Asian."
"I'm gay."
"You're a mutant."
It doesn't make sense it is random convergence like many things.
Actually it could be part of how you were raised or what happened to you but no one knows it's like God v. Darwin Deathmatch! but I give up it really doesn't matter anyways does it. People should learn to care less about everything look how I turned out. Oh well I don't remember what I was saying something about... Damn I can't remember my train of thought left me at the station of ignorance.

 

Nice post. Well, 'cept for the ending... :)
Yeah... well, it's something with the DNA and or chromosomes. Of that I'm certain. Not certain if being gay is hereditary, though.

 

Yes, maybe you were, but it wasn't encoded in your DNA for you to like ****, now was it?

I hope you see my point. Sorry if I sound mean. xD

 

No. I don't really see your point. How would you explain me being gay then? I swear, I did not choose it.

 

Yeah...even coming from a gay person, this sounds offensive to gay people. I mean...come on...gay people are mutants now?

No, there's no such thing as a gene, and it's not a life preference. It is just the way people are born. I myself, am not gay, and I wouldn't know what you have to go through, or what it's like, but it seems to me like a pretty hard life. I think that this kind of logic is just a way to try and make you feel better about yourself. In fact, a genetic mutation would make gay people their own race.

But, just to disprove that gay gene thing. If there was sucha thing, then someone iny our family would have had to be gay many years ago, and then to carry on that gene with more gay people in your family. This would mean, if there was a build up of gay people in your family, then chances are your family line would end with gay relationships. If there was a gene traveling through your family, how would it be transferred if gay people won't reproduce? I know gay men, until recently, usually lied to themselves and the people around them and tried to lead normal lives, but still, it's unlikely that a gay person would reproduce, andtherefore the gay gene would end with them. In this way, fromt he dawn of time, it would only be possible for there to be one generation of gay people. And being that there are still gay people today, that means that there's no way that a gay gene has been going downt hrough generations.

 

I don't think "gene" would be the right term to use here. I mean sure, there may be common body characterists between gays but not all of them are considered "genetic." It mostly has to do with enviroments/living situations.

 

No, it's not Genes or whatever you call them, its their choice.

 

THANK YOU! Not all Asians are good at math - I should know!! D<

Anyways, I dun think being gay means you have a different gene =]

My point of view on gays and stuff is open ((hell, my best friend is gay!! He's awesome!)) and really - you fall in love with who you fall in love with. Thats what I say. You can't help who you just happen to love. =O

So if you need respect - support - another friend maybe? - I'm here for you - wOOt! You totally got my respect. =]

 

No being Gay or Bi is the persons own choice since three people in my family (two bi and one gay) are the only gays in the family and only by choice

 

It's not their choice. You can't just get up one day and be like, "Hey! I think I'll become gay from this point onward throughout my life!!". I've asked some friends of mine who are gay, and they say they've never been attracted to girls, but they wish they were, and that they weren't gay. Some are proud, some ain't. I think they're born that way.

 

It was my choice to be a bi so I guess it's half and half

 

Wow lol, the comments here are awesome. I didn't expet there to be so many.
And it's nice to see people that are open to people being gay, and don't start calling them a freak.

I remember on another forum that I use to go a guy that made an exact thread like this one saying that he was gay. People there started laughing at him and calling him a freak...it was a sickening thing to watch.

Hmmm, yeah. You should know.

 

I don't think there is a "Gay Gene", but that it's the way they are brought up & how Society has effected them, I'm sure that genetics may have a part in it as well.

 

it could be like other genes which like increase your chance of being gay but dont necessarily mean that you will be. like the obesity gene thing, it increased your chances but it was mainly external influences that caused it.
but i think that the term 'gay gene' sounds a bit off.

 

Guys I found the Organ That I told you about and I think that my teacher was lying.It's called the Pituitary Gland located somewhere in the bottom of your brain.
Here's the Wikipedia link thingy...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pituitary_gland

 

Which reminds me, anyone seen the X-men movies?
What am I saying of course you did xD.

Well, did you know there's a message in them. About homosexuality.
The mutants being that gay people (Duh, in an indirect way ).

If anyone remembers in X-men 2, At one point they go to one of the youngsters home. Suddenly the parents arrive. Bobboy (Ice-Man) tells them about the school for gifted youngsters aka Mutants. Upon hearing this and a short demonstration of Bobbies abilities (to freeze) his mother says “Honey.. have you tried to not.. being a mutant?”
This is a hint to being gay..

He is a Mutant it is in his Genes.. he can NOT change it, he can NOT pretend to not be a Mutant because he is!
Same thing with gay people..


And I think the producer is gay, that's why he's passing on this message.
