cause of homosexuality: Many people claim that homosexuals are all created the same way. I think this is nonsense. Just as people prefer carrots to cabbage for many different reasons, so they prefer men to women for many different reasons. There is a genetic component. Homosexuality tends to run in families. Identical twins are usually identical in sexuality. One of the less commonly expounded theories is that if a male has a cruel female parent and a kind male parent, he may imprint on the male parent as a model for ideal lover. This partly explains why mothers are so humiliated when it turns out their sons are gay. The same would analogously apply to lesbians. My Mom told me there was some secret thing women could do to make their sons gay. They do this to ensure someone will take care of them in their twilight years. Mom never gave details. No one but Mom has ever admitted to knowing anything about this female conspiracy to create more male homosexuals. Christians imagine that homosexuals recruit new homosexuals by talking young people out of their heterosexuality. (Their parents try and fail after years of harranging, but supposedly we homosexuals succeed with only a five minute chat.) Presumably these gay-obsessed Christians too are gay, and hope some one will talk them out of their "heterosexuality".
