It seems that both biology and social conditioning play vital roles in the sexual preference of one human being to the next.
Biologically you can produce a human being that resembles a male or female, but who favor their own sex opposed to "taking the arm" of the more
socially acceptable sex in which reproduction can take place.
In social conditioning you can have a child raised in an enviroment where this was accepted and praticed therefore, perhaps deliberately or
indeliberately taught. This could also be a result of sexual confusion in which the mind rewrites itself according to how that individual person feels
his or her emotions should be directed.
Either way you have the natural biological reason that takes place during the development process and you have social conditioning which is merely
"monkey see monkey do" or even "monkey see monkey want" or more so "monkey is so monkey does"
In the end it's all chemical flucuations in the brain that eventually cause this individual to live out a life of homosexuality.
From my stand point, being gay is something you can be born with and also "learned" through out the course of a life time.
I don't hang my hat on this theory, but it makes a fair amount of sense, enough to share it with the masses.
As far as being anymore advanced than straights, I'd have to say no. If there is some kind of physical evidence to prove otherwise then naturally I
would accept this as fact.
I haven't exactly seen any headlines declaring that groups of gay scientists are making any groundbreaking discoveries or anything. Unless of course
they're keeping them in the closet.
