If you are a gay man, blame your mother's epi-marks. None of which explains why two of my gay cousins are brother and sister.
Long thought to have some sort of hereditary link, a group of scientists suggested Tuesday that homosexuality is linked to epi-marks — extra layers of information that control how certain genes are expressed.

I have a feeling that your wording here is probably going to earn you a whooping from our gay contingency.

Nah. They know I love them (in a manly heterosexual way).

i always wondered how/when one crosses that line between not gay and gay. if you jerked off that bunkmate at band camp, are you officially gay then, even though now you have a wife and children, etc...? Or maybe you're not officially gay until you start shopping at LL Bean?

I'm ignoring this cunt until he:
1. Stops sounding like a sock puppet
2. Starts writing in proper sentences.
3. Proves that he's an engineer and not a lying sack of shit.

Obviously people are gay because there is some hereditary advantage in family groups producing a percentage of gay offspring. The only problem in understanding this is that most of the people who reflexively reject the idea that there may be any advantage in being gay also refuse to accept any evidence that evolution exists.

I can't believe we are letting the fucker get away with this shit. What is next, emoticons?
Where the fuck is George Orr? Isn't she in charge of grammar and punctuation? I don't have time to be a troll and a grammar nazi.

Why? you didn't think it was funny, or you just feeling bitchy and whiney today?
1) I don't give a flying fuck if you think i'm a sock puppet or not. I've told you I'm not, I just got here. so, go fuck yourself, sock detective.
2) what's wrong with my sentences? When I'm not at work, I write in a kind of stream of consciousness style. I really enjoy it. If you don't like it, go fuck yourself.
3) what cha want me to do, draw you an electrical schematic? or would you rather just go fuck yourself?
So, in summary, if you were just joking around, it was pretty funny, but either way, please, go fuck yourself.

You are gay because you like to have a mouthful of cock.

Have you decided what you're going to be when you grow up?

If you read the story you would know the evolutionary advantage goes to the parents, not to the gay person. At least that's the conclusion they draw.

The advantage being that there were food producing adults who weren't producing dependent food consuming offspring, so they were able to share with family members. In more advanced societies, they provided childcare services, extra manpower for the farm/family business, and funds for education or dowries for nieces and nephews.
Modern families that reject gay children for religious reasons make it clear to the straight children that their parents' religion sucks ass. The casting out of gay members teaches the entire extended family that in their case kinship ties are meaningless, and may be ignored since their relatives are trash.

Obviously? No. It will be a while yet before anything about homosexuality is "obvious" other than your status as a seed-bottle. But at least this goes a fair ways towards reconciling Cochrane's astute observation that genetics could not logically have given rise to the present percentage of exclusively homosexual individuals. It will be interesting to see if he responds, since the "epimarks" concept maintains his original objection to genetic causality, while eliminating his idea of a necessary infection.

Did I say otherwise? What the article actually said was that that epi-marks protect fathers of homosexuals from underexposure to testosterone, which is pretty damn stupid even for U.S. News. The article also contains links labeled: PHOTOS: Couples Queue for Midnight Marriage Licenses, ENJOY: Political Cartoons About Gay Marriage, DEBATE: Should Gay Marriage Be Legal Nationwide?, READ: Sen. Hatch Wants to Show Mormons Are Christians, and RELATED: Supreme Court Will Hear Gay Marriage Cases. All of those are far more closely related to the politics of gay bashing than to a study of the details of genetic inheritance.
