Interesting article, especially for
those who think it's unmistakably biological. I'd be willing to bet there are lot more gay people out there that have chosen that lifestyle as a result of past abuse than we realize. (No, that's not to say
all cases are that way, so don't jump all over me.) The very fact that people can move between "being straight" and "being gay" kinda disputes strong biological causality.
Thanks, Indy.

While scientists have found intriguing biological differences between gay and straight people, the evidence so far stops well short of proving that we are born with a sexual orientation that we will have for life. Even more important, some research shows that sexual orientation is more fluid than we have come to think, that people, especially women, can and do move across customary sexual orientation boundaries, that there are ex-straights as well as ex-gays.
