My belief is that the expression of homosexuality is both genetic and environmental in nature.
Humans show traits that are on a scale between masculine and feminine. Someone who exibits both sets of traits equally is considered androgenous.
I believe that how suceptable a person is to engaging in homosexual thoughts / acts is correlated to where a person falls on this scale (genetics codes for what range of traits can possibly be expressed and the environment places you somewhere in that range)
What I'm curious about is are there any apparent advangates for homosexuality to exist?
We can see that many animals show some form of homosexuality wether it is just a physical release, or they can't tell the difference between a male and female, or if a lack of females causes males to think they can successfully mate with other males I don't know.
Is it possible that while our decendents were first evolving there weren't 2 sepatate sexes and homosexuality is genetic code that was just never removed and and managed to stay in a consistant proportion of the population so as not to disappear.
Is it possible that our species is evolving to a single sex?
Do you have any other explanations? I'm not too concerned with the social aspect of the discussion in this thread.
