I don't know, I'm not saying it's as simple as a single gene passed along: And maybe it has a very important social function that we're ignoring while trying to distance ourselves from animals cause, you know, souls or some shit.
Bicoid Babe: Well, here's one theory: http://io9.com/5967426/scientists-confirm-that-homosexuality-is-not-genetic--but-it-arises-in-the-womb
I believe I was reading something just yesterday: about female fish finding male fish who behave in a homoerotic fashion more appealing. Perhaps there is a deeper species survival element to it that anyone has hitherto suspected?
Probably something to do with community dynamics: like if you can get two dudes to protect all of your babies that's even better than one.
Couldn't it just be recessive: like how two copies of the gene that protects against malaria causes sickle cell anemia
I was going to suggest the same last night: but my brain wasn't smart enough to word it.
What I've heard is this: there is no genetic basis for being gay or straight but for liking males or liking females. Your own gender/sex is irrelevant for this.
Therefore, if you're a lesbian you get your liking-girls-genetics from your father, and if you're a gay male you get your liking-boys-genetics from your mother.: However, I have also heard that it's a bit more complicated than that, so I dunno.
