Reply #17: I just don't understand

I mean, I guess it can be scientific illiteracy to a certain degree, but I doubt some of those people are even really reading the whole article, much less the study itself.

I have noticed though that a significant portion of the GLBT community doesn't even want to begin to talk about why or how people are gay. They just want acceptance. I can't blame people for that.

If people who accept the rights of GLBT people to exist and be who they are as not being 'mistakes' or 'sick', why can't we look to understand the biological or environmental causes?

This study is very interesting, as it doesn't indicate exactly what's going on, but it effectively eliminates environmental causes from male homosexuality and links it to the biological mother. Why is that so terrible?

What happens if this study is confirmed and a larger study shows the same correlations? Do we ignore it and make fun of it even more?
