I am amazed that you have figured out what geneticists have not been able to
prove.
As firmly as you assert homosexuality is inborn, I can assert as firmly that it
is a chosen
lifestyle. There is NO evidence either way. Please keep your unqualified
statements to
yourself.

There is evidence that Edward III was the result of slippery extramarital
activity of
Isabella of France (Edward II's wife). This is my allotment of unqualified
statements.
