You know, everyone has been talking about the possibility of turning off this potential gene. but let's look at the possibilities. If this technology was developed, maybe I could use it to finally convince my wife to have a threesome with another girl.

I believe that most gays come to it through a nature component as opposed to a nurture component. I don't have an issue with it, and part of my understanding came originally from accepting that for most it was probably out of their control. But I don't believe that it is the norm, from an evolutionary standpoint. People give their dwarf children growth hormone to bring them into the norm. I am pretty confident that most deaf people would choose to have normal hearing even though there is a strong deaf culture and more acceptance. Many down's syndrome people seem profoundly happy, but how many parents would prefer to change their future child? I know I would.

For the record, if I found out that one of my future children was going to be born gay, I would have that gene shut off.
