Regarding the genetic predisposition (or not) argument, Don, I really don't have an opinion about that. Why? Because I don't know enough about it at this point to have an opinion.

I think there are probably a great number of factors which can play a part in whether someone is inclined to be gay...some intrinsic to the person, some acquired through environment, culture, etc. I happen to believe that people reincarnate, and that one human soul can live many lives as a man and many as a woman...so if that is the case, then why wouldn't people get a bit confused about their gender roles at times? And why should it matter if they do?

I think that the human soul is equally male and female, Don...every human soul...but that when you are born you must find yourself in either a male or a female body at that time...and then you come under the influence of your culture and your family and whoever else is around...and so it goes. Anything can happen.

So what are you gonna do with that? Probably nothing, right? ;-) Because you don't even consider it in your argument.

The argument about genetic predisposition (or not) is simply not what concerns me in this discussion, and I'm not inclined to argue about it one way or the other. I have no basis for arguing about it.
