Want to stay on topic though?
I consider you as the departing point of the topic, because your opinions, or at least the opinions posted here, depart from a personal standpoint which is built on top of ideas and feelings developed throughout the person's life.

Let me hear your pain, son.

Departing from scientific method so early Seitse?
I don't think you're meant to start with the conclusion.

It's OK that you believe me to be a liar. Palynka has

Out of curiosity, have you even been to Africa? I spent the first 3 years of my life there.
Couldn't have been Korean then? Even half Korean? When was the last time you were in Toronto?

I know of two recent articles of import.

(1) http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2008/jun/16/neuroscience.psychology

(2) http://www.findingdulcinea.com/news/science/2008/December/Males-of-All-S ...[text shortened]... hape of the brain and the other with the effect pollution may have on the masculinity of males.
I believe most evidence points to homosexuality being a genetic trait, or at least a genetic predisposition.
