So is there a gay gene?
Is a person pre-disposed to being gay? Conceived as a fag* in the womb but left dormant until puberty when it explodes a rainbow of emotion and fashion sense only fitting for those in same sex relationship.
Would this mean that if you could harness that gene you could turn a gay baby straight? Would it also mean that gene therapy could turn any homophobic gay-bashing straight man in to a nancy* that enjoys a bit of bum fun? One would certainly hope it made them more accpeting towards us queers* but where would erotica be for some gay man if there were no straight men to drool over or try and convert the long way (six beers apparently!)
If there is such a thing as a gay gene then surely they is a Politician Gene? What if Mr & Mrs Churchill had removed if from little Winston? Would gays, Jews and ginger people be a think of the past as the world filled blonde muscular shot-puters (and that's just the women!)
Personally I think there is a gay gene but the idea of having it removed now or at birth, or being cured, fills me with a dread I reserve only for visits from my father.
*Before you start having a go at me for using those terms please see my previous entry about how being gay is bad and my own personal blog!
