>>269519>that would mean tradfags were sorta right about conversion therapyI see what you mean…that’s why talking about this stuff is so tricky. I always (pseudoscientifically) thought of it as someone is born with a predestined range of potential gayness but early life experience will determine how gay they’ll turn out. Even if I do not agree with the full “born this way” explanation, it’s useful enough to get nuance-proof idiots to accept it without thinking they can change it.
As far as whether there even is a “gay gene” I think things like antenatal diet of the mother or sperm age or even what
>>269374 said is just as likely. Even though it’s technically not “genetic” it’s from that murky conception to birth time so it is something people are born with. Part of the reason that I don’t think it’s just from birth is that I think we’d be able to pinpoint why people are gay by now if it was that simple.
