no, people turn gay all the time when they go to prison

The genes causing homosexuality have an ESS that keeps it at about 5%.

Wouldn't our genes evolve into something else that would stop this?

At least she still has her teeth

Anyway, if the genetic trait causes increased attraction to one sex, and it's in a brother sister pair, the chance increases dramatically

>>8397170
You should read the Selfish Gene

>>8397176
Thanks.
I'm starting to be a fan of Dawkins.

>>8397172
But won't the chance be the same for the attraction to the opposite sex?

I understand that the environment has something to do with the homosexuality trait as well.

>Since homosexuality is a genetic trait
No one has been able to conclusively prove this.

>>8397192
It is the accepted conclusion and points to the strongest evidence by far though.

No. No.No.

Dawkins is a horrible idiot who doesn't know what he's talking about.

Read some actual scientific work, not some bullshit made up by a bee-handler.

>made up by a bee-handler.
I chuckled.

>>8397196
accepted by literally who?

what about environmental factors?
what about inutero hormonal factors?

I would be more inclined to believe that the emotional state and diet of the mother during pregnancy would have a greater outcome on sexuality.

And yes, we still have environmental factors including diet, I'd say it's partly genetic.

its a compelling abstract ( I cant read cambridge articles). and the fact that it is technically a replication of Hamers work makes it seem more rigorous

it still seems like a jump to say that ALL human sexuality is genetically driven. The linkages found in homosexual brothers were not found in homosexual sisters or mixed-sexual siblings in other studies. But you have convinced me that some cases of human homosexuality can have, in part, a genetic factor.

But to answer the threads question.
if we allowed this part of the X chromosome to be the determining factor, the fact that it resides on the X should allow women to carry it without necessarily being affected by it. and therefore have a 50/50 chance to pass it on to her sons and daughters. Not enough pressure to select it out, so no homosexual extinction.

Thankyou for having an actual article to back up your question - this time OP was not a faggot

>>8397237
Alright, man.

I'm going to dig in deeper more with this.

Thanks to the anons, this whole thread helped me gain more insights.
