Steppenwolf..you say you are not attacking, yet in your first post in this thread you said: "Almost a certain fact inside the scientific community is that homosexual behavior start to build up after an abuse as a child."
That is such bullshit with no scientific backing..yet you throw it out as a fact and try to stir things up.
Don't act like you're not being negative about homsexuality, because you are.

Im going to bother to reply you first... i dont know what you mean by wannabes. I already am... oh, I see your point now, im sorry, i have less than 1000 posts, i must be broke then.
And regarding scientific evidence, let me start by building the nurture case with this:
Studies performed over the last several decades have found that gay men tend to have a greater number of older male siblings than do straight men. In a recent analysis of data from 14 studies involving 10,000 individuals, a group led by Ray Blanchard, a professor of psychology at the University of Toronto, determined that a large number of older brothers is a significant predictor of male homosexuality [24][25].
